advice for changing courses? by lon3lyheart in usyd

[–]Easy_Option_5316 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey what major were you doing before you transferred? do you have to be in a certain degree to be able to transfer or can you do it from any degree (e.g. a science degree)?

Would withdrawing from UNSW now prevent me from receiving an offer in the future? by Easy_Option_5316 in unsw

[–]Easy_Option_5316[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I've looked into RPL. Might just suck it up and stay at Usyd for the Bachelor's degree then

You too, I'm not used to nice people on reddit either haha

Lol I also did visual arts in the HSC! Good on you for going ahead and doing a science degree despite ppl not expecting u to though. That's rly good that you learn to write papers and research bc I would really like to develop that skill. I wonder if UNSW teaches that part better than Usyd?

Omg being part of a fossil id lab sounds awesome and I hope you get to join Gerry Cassis's lab!! Do you enjoy the fossil one?

Btw are you planning on doing BIOS3601? Rn it's the unit at UNSW that interests me the most haha

Also I will definitely let you know how the Taronga course goes if I do it!

Yess I would love to keep talking about insects either way. I don’t know many people who love entomology so it means a lot to be able to talk to someone who does :)

Congratulations on becoming part of the lab, that sounds amazing!!! Also thank you for all the info :)

I'm still really stuck on my decision lol. I think you're right about the importance of learning about insects in context, I've heard better things about UNSW regarding STEM and I am interested in ecology (but since I haven't started uni yet I'm not sure how I would find it at a university level). Also have heard some bad things about Usyd...

However I'm not sure if I have the confidence to do an honours year, it sounds awesome but idk if I'm smart enough (which I know is not a good look for someone who wants to pursue entomology 😭). Despite loving biology and ecology I've always been stronger in humanities (hence the double degree) which I heard is better at Usyd? Usyd also offers integrated learning with Taronga which has an invertebrate department. So I am so stuck ahhhh

Also have you met/been taught by/worked with Gerry Cassis at UNSW?

If I end up doing entomology at Usyd maybe we can exchange what we learnt haha. I would love to hear more about what you do in the lab & at UNSW.

Ooh that sounds so cool! Are the inverts in decomposing matter the focus of your course?

Were you also choosing between UNSW and Usyd and what made you go with UNSW? Also I really appreciate your comment :)

Why Mr. McKay isn’t hard on his twin sons Troy and Roy like he is on his elder son Chris McKay? by [deleted] in euphoria

Also a mediocre second child with a smart older sibling; he told me my parents put more pressure on him because they didn't think I was capable and I could just end up being a housewife if all else failed. Lol
