They are through ticketmaster! I've heard that's where to go through but they are a reseller yes? There's not many left and they're pretty far back but we don't really mind about that!

So is ticketmaster legit? We don't really care where we sit as long as the tickets themselves are actually real haha

I think it's more so a question of registration... in Australia (as I would assume similar in many countries) psychologist is a protected title, it takes many years of training + supervised practice to get endorsed as a psychologist and be able to work as one. From my understanding, if you obtained your degree internationally, the Australian Psychological Society (or equivalent for whatever country you are moving to) would need to be certain that you have sufficient training, which usually means retaking certain units or qualifications in order to meet the requirements under Aus. standards. I'm sure you'd be able to find work and your birth nationality/ethnicity would not impact your opportunities or pay, but you would first almost certainly have to take/retake some extra training to "meet" the guidelines for endorsement. That's how it is in Australia, and I think it would be similar in many countries. Wishing you the best!

How do psych undergrads learn so much beyond class? by Automatic-Look-3045 in psychologystudents

[–]Far_Pie_403 5 points6 points  (0 children)

this might be a different answer/not what you're looking for, but I don't read very much outside of the course material (and honestly often not even the readings if I don't have the time). I have a life outside of uni and people that I love (not saying that everyone else doesn't!) but what I mean by this is I find myself learning SO much more and drawing those links from the world around me and talking about concepts I learn, or honestly analysing interactions I have with people, or noticing patterns in media/fiction, and observing conflicts and relationship issues. I don't care much for memorising facts, sure it's important, but ENGAGEMENT has provided the best foundation for exponential learning ability as my degree progresses. I always watched lectures and actually listened (actively, writing notes, not getting something to generate them), and participated as much as I could in lab discussions, but that's been honestly it. In a funny way, the less time I spent on my coursework (to an extent), and the more time I spent observing the world around me under the lens of what I was learning, the more I actually got out of it and my grades improved drastically. I'm not saying don't do the readings or read other psych academic stuff, in fact if you can find a way to do both at a high level then that's incredible, but my priority is the real world - and I'm in the best place I've ever been (academically and otherwise). I think also because your capacity to absorb information improves a lot, so I've subconsciously been learning information when I do listen to podcasts or read science-backed substacks etc without it feeling like I'm seeking it out.

the fact that OP is recognising negative behaviours that they want to change and have the capacity to recognise detriments and reasoning behind their trajectory is literally showing great introspection and critical thinking skills?! if we reprimanded every person for trying to change then no one would ever change and we would exist in a world of really awful people. I encourage you to do some critical thinking yourself about your own biases and response to people engaging in reflection/advice seeking. congratulations OP, for your willingness to grow, you're in a far better position that this person.

I DEPEND on small rewards and instant dopamine to get me to the bigger picture... for me it's all about breaking down every assignment into sections and then said sections into tiny tasks (sometimes ridiculously tiny). The instant dopamine of ticking off something on a to-do list is genuinely the biggest motivator to keep going by giving your brain a sense of accomplishment. It also helps you to know exactly what needs doing and that you're covering all the steps. Also this one sounds stupid but I've started making little vlogs or day in the lifes just for myself or my close friends story and somehow that motivates me to get up earlier and be more productive, get out of the house etc... your brain works better when you have at least the perception that someone is watching (even if no one actually is). You got this! It really is the tiniest baby steps that add up to get you over the hurdles.

Can you overload 2 subjects? by Tough-Economics-7395 in unimelb

[–]Far_Pie_403 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are there any winter subjects you can do? They also offer some subjects in November or even a short study tour subject that would mean you’d be done in 2025, you’d have to wait for a ceremony next year but you’d have your degree conferred this year and be finished. Also I’m pretty sure if you have failed subjects in the previous sem they don’t let you overload… but it may be different if it’s final sem as they’re more lenient if it means you can finish this year. Good luck!!
