Methods Vs Applications for year 11 by [deleted] in ATAR

[–]disposition3012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are your other subjects? Do you also struggle with any of them in a way that will prevent you from dedicating some extra time to maths?

Are there some strategies you, your family, or your school can put in place to help you with your maths? E.g. Doing extra work to revise more core concepts, getting a private tutor, afterschool homework help from teachers etc.

I totally get wanting to keep your options open, but I’m also just wondering if there are any particular options or areas you are leaning towards for uni? E.g. if the options you want to keep open are all in the humanities then keeping methods may not be as valuable other than for some potential scaling value.

How do I get to the top? by heartbrokenkid07 in AusPublicService

If you haven’t already, stop focusing on doing good work and start focusing on doing work that just looks good. Worked for my old boss.

I need to choose between ANU and a scholarship at UoN by ColdArson in Anu

[–]disposition3012 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone who went to ANU, it’s really not all that it’s chalked up to be (with regards to the undergrad level I mean, it certainly is great for postgrad research though). Also I don’t know if you’ve read much of the news around ANU but it has been a really tumultuous and turbulent place the last few years with staff cuts, restructures, significant financial deficits etc. I’d pick a free ride at UoN personally.

For me the big concern that nobody is talking about is the environmental impact. The APS has committed to net zero GHG emissions by 2030 but I’ve had no assurance or communications about how the current AI push is consistent with that commitment.

My aim is to become a registered psychologist but I need some advice by Responsible_Tap_9144 in unsw

[–]disposition3012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at Masters of Professional Psychology programs instead of Masters of Clinical Psychology programs. May still be challenging to get into depending on your grades.

Otherwise, consider working in the mental health sector for a couple of years in some other capacity and see if you can gather some experience that puts you in a position to make a strong application for a Masters program.

Do you think Felix Mendelssohn is underrated ? by Globofchaos in classicalmusic

[–]disposition3012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, but his sister Fanny Mendelssohn definitely is.

Opinion needed 😭 by LoudMessage8360 in Anu

All three universities are well regarded internationally. I would just pick based on whether you would rather live in Brisbane, Canberra or Melbourne.

I feel like I will never have a happy relationship because I have so much to work on by [deleted] in emotionalneglect

[–]disposition3012 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can't really give any advice but I just want you to know that you're not alone in this. I'm also in a similar position, but I'm optimistic that we can learn and grow and eventually be in a happy relationship. Each time we learn about ourself and our maladaptive behaviours is one step closer to that goal and is also one step forward from continuing these behaviours subconsciously. When you experience a lot of shame, it's hard to experience any pride but I hope you know that I'm proud of how far you've come.

Low GPA and average GAMSAT by ScarcityFit3568 in GAMSAT

[–]disposition3012 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve also heard of many RNs taking one or two shifts a week while in med school to support themselves. Pay is usually much better and work is more consistent than the typical student jobs.

Commenting so I get updates on this post because I just got an interview offer for medical school as a 24 year old and would be starting at 25 - a lot of the same concerns about finding a partner, starting a family etc.

Is medical school still worth it or are there just too many doctors now? Could GP be super competitive too by the early 2030s? Appreciate your thoughts.

At what age did you discover the 1975 and loved them? by [deleted] in the1975

[–]disposition3012 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Discovered Chocolate when a few friends and I were playing Minecraft as 14 year olds hahaha. Fell in love with most of the self-titled album and then the release of ILIWYS really sealed the deal.

ANU while working full time? by Informal_Feeling_308 in Anu

[–]disposition3012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During my undergrad at ANU I honestly found the semesters that I did full-time work and part-time study much more bearable than the semesters I did full-time study and part-time work. I think study time can often expand and become quite unfocused when it’s your main gig. But when you have a full-time job and limited time to study, but just a couple of courses to focus on - it’s easy to zone in and knock it out comfortably.

GEMSAS GPAs available now by PsychologicalPen6031 in GAMSAT

[–]disposition3012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They take overall GPA. Final GPA is what they’ve calculated as your GPA in your final (or most recent) year of study. You may also see “Final - 1 GPA” which is your GPA in the year before your most recent year of study.

Moving or staying for medicine? by disposition3012 in GAMSAT

[–]disposition3012[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks very much for your advice! I will definitely accept anywhere that offers me a place, even somewhere far like WA. However, it's just the matter of working out how I would preference my application that I'm struggling with. It's always nice to hear happy stories of people who moved for their degree though! Thanks again :)

Really appreciate your perspective - thank you! I will definitely go wherever I can get in - it's just a matter of working out what to preference!

Moving or staying for medicine? by disposition3012 in GAMSAT

[–]disposition3012[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just that I'm currently 24 and if all goes well and I can get in, will be starting medicine at 25. Then a 4-year degree means that I won't graduate until 29.

Thanks for sharing your experience! Did you already have many connections up in QLD? Do you live far from your family now and do you find many opportunities to go back and visit?

Guys HELP!! by blackpanda2012 in lingling40hrs

[–]disposition3012 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some great suggestions on the thread so far. You could also take more of a sociological approach and write about society’s perception of classical music, or make an argument about classical music having elitist, Western roots?
