In terms of beneficialness, I don't know if those info sessions are useful at all.
As my Texts and traditions teacher back in Year 11 teacher said, "Don't go to those university open days. Its just a marketing scheme". :P

LOL, spot on, although the Melb Uni ads on TV do make it seem excting hahaha. I have been to Open days since year 10, all up, like 3-4 different uni's. I find that it isn't useful at all because if i go to ask a question, i can also send an e-mail for a much more personailised response, i don't need to go and get the course book/guide, because my school has dozens for EVERY TAFE and Uni, the info sessions for YOU specific course, only go on for about 30 minutes, with npothing i didn't know already. And who need free showbags with pens, food, rulers......on second thoguhts.....

It's a maths competition. You compete in teams from your school - it's designed to be fun and lighthearted (although apparently some schools beg to differ...)

'scuse me, but the generic name "paracetamol" is more suitable unless you support the promotion of certain drug brands.

Also, if you're going to open day, TRAMS ARE GONNA BE A SARDINE CAN. Now you can experience what a uni student experiences everyday during peak.

Stop picking on me Prav, I've actually done work this week... my business stats report (was due Thurs) ended up 16 pages long!

My graphs were prettiful and I've decided that I like Excel 2007, but that I still don't particularly like stats.

Lesson learned: NEVER GO TO THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.
