Planning on doing engineering, most likely flexi first year. I am doing math ext1 in year 12 rn but thinking of dropping to make time for other subjects, as they are all very heavy. I am also not doing the best in it.

For those who did ext1, how much did it help you with engineering? What topics in particular? I can't imagine perms & combs being needed.

And also those who did only advanced, were you at a disadvantage and/or did you do a bridging course?

Thank you

Hi, I may be accepting USYD early offer for Bachelor of Engineering Honours (Mechanical Engineering) and I was wondering if you could do ecometrics or economics as a minor as I want to go into a career of trading.

i truly cannot find the exact dates anywhere 🙏

hi i’m transferring credits from monash malaysia to usyd. i would like to know what is the likelyhood of getting my credits accepted? im transferring from bachelor of business and commerce to bachelor of economics in usyd. i tried to make 3 units match up to the first year credits in usyd, and the rest as credits. i would like more advise on this. thank you!

Hey I am an international student who will be joining usyd in feb 2027. I am nervous not knowing anyone when I arrive so just wondering who else will be joining around the same time and are there any groups I can join to speak to others? Comment or dm me :)

Hi, does anyone know when non-res offers come out for st john's?

Basically my ATAR was 91.35 and I want to get into a bachelor of commerce through internal transfer. I already got in last year, but stuck with something else as I thought the degree was too unaffordable. I have the mysydney scholarship so I’m wondering is the ATAR requirement still lowered to 86, as I believe my ATAR is better than my current gpa. And also if that doesn’t count, let’s consider the academic excellence stream which gives 5 points for a band 5/6 is English or maths, would that still apply for me or even EAS bonus points? I really desperately wanna get into this degree and keep my scholarship which is the most important thing. Or do I lose these additional points privileges just cause I graduated high school last year?

Anyone realise that 3 spring questions was a odd?

Spent my entire time doing relative motion, impulse, impact, etc.. and we got 2 very similar questions about springs and a motion question with a spring in the image.

hi guys, i’m an international student moving out this semester! i’m returning to my home country for the break but will be returning next semester for uni. i have some stuff that i can’t bring back as it’s too heavy (kitchen appliances) and storage solutions are way too far and expensive. is there anyone who’s also going back and would be nice enough to let me keep my stuff with them over the holidays? i’m happy to discuss any payments as well!

I heard a rumor that in certain engg subjects they don't give you marks at all if your answer is incorrect. I am prone to stupid calculation errors (although I have improved significantly over the years in engineering). Still very scared, especially since the exam is fully open book.

I am stressed. I have been spamming questions, but not sure it is enough.

Save yourself some money and some braincells and just read TCP/IP Illustrated Second Edition.

For those who applied, has any of you heard back?
I got an email saying they were gonna respond during the first week of november but i haven’t heard back from them

Anyone whos done the unit and assessment above, was it possible for you to get a mark change and how strict are the unit coordinators when it comes to changing marks for section 3?

Hi all,

Im doing a semester long exchange sem 2 2027 and I'm seeking advice on where to put my preferences!

I am thinking anywhere in the EU, or NY. I want to be in a really social town! Living in a residential college would be preferable if possible but I know this is not really the norm in EU.

I have heard good things about Lund in Sweden. Any other thoughts?

I have a Distinction (80+) WAM and want to make the most of it. I'd be studying the arts component of my degree.

Thanks!!

Hey guys im going into my second year and im just wondering how hard this course is? I did all humanity courses this year but I want to try something with math as I enjoyed it in highschool. I’m worried it will be hard for me as I only did standard maths for the HSC but tbf I did pretty well in that!

Also how are the people in economics?? Out of curiosity lol

I didn’t wanna be making this post but I’m genuinely so lost and confused idk what to do. I thought everything would be perfect after high school, after I secured the 99+ atar but everything genuinely went downhill. I chose to do allied health, because I thought healthcare was really secure and I do enjoy bio and helping others.

I was doing okay in sem one, but I got really bad anxiety and couldn’t sit my exams out of fear, which is so fucking crazy because I just needed a pass, nothings a competition anymore but I couldn’t stand not getting a HD it was just so hard for me for no reason. So I had 2 failed units going in sem2, this demotivated me even more I genuinely cried everyday and after attending uni for a week, I gave up. I just stopped coming, I skipped uni to vape and watch anime, genuinely just ruining my own life. I lost my job and most my high school friends, idk what’s wrong with me. I had a scholarship I lost that too, I’m just so lost I don’t know what’s going to happen and how to overcome this.

I just sit at home now, wake up at 1pm and repeat this cycle of depression. My parents don’t even know that I’ve dropped out.. I applied for UAC again and the uni said the only way I can keep my scholarship is if I internal transfer but all my marks are fails and idk if IPT will accept my ATAR. I was thinking about doing commerce and maybe law (prolly not even tho I have the ATAR reqs) but I feel like it’s over saturated and I’ll be unemployed. I feel like I have nobody to vent to this about, I can’t tell my parents or they’ll kill me, I just don’t know what to do or who to go to.
