Right now I'm not sure what other subjects I want to do. Could anyone recommend a subject which might involve anything about philosophy, politics or real-life issues? Was thinking of doing Philosophy, Politics and Economics, International Politics or From Plato to Einstein, despite being a bit crappy with writing skills. Much thanks if anyone can help!

I want to join a sport club next semester but I'm wondering how it works. Do you need to be at a certain skill level to join like try outs and stuff?

Yes he is a very good lecturer. I had him for 'Operating Systems and Network Services' in Sem 1 of 2013.

Apart from rowing, you don't need any prior experience. They usually have beginner teams. Join hockey, it's super fun :)

Do Plato to Einstein!!! Kristian Camilleri is one of the best lecturers I've ever had. The course content was amazing as were the assessments (IIFC 3 short assignments and a 2000 word essay?).

I changed my mind. Hockey is boring  if you can't run well and have a low tolerance for pain and danger(you will get hit by the ball and stick at least once). I want to quit now but ive already paid the fees lol.

Who would I contact to ask what the average for a major is? Student centre or try and find the individual average for each subject that makes up the major?

Sorry can't help you but out of interest, why does it matter?

Well transferring courses you just need individual subject grades, it doesn't matter how you rank in the cohort.
Uni is different, it doesn't matter where you fall in group unless you are actually #1. In which case you get an award.
