Two things:

1) Is anyone here doing a Chemical Systems major? I just have a quick question for you.

2) People doing concurrent diplomas, do you know if it's possible to commence PG studies whilst still finishing off your Diploma subjects?  Or do you have to finish both your UG and the Diploma before commencing PG studies?

I know someone doing chem sys at our university, what was your query? I've finished all the Human Phys notes and can mail you the extra copy if you'd like to message a postal address.

I got an offer for bachelor of science, and I'm just wondering how good engineering at Melbourne compared to Monash?
I hear so many people saying Monash is better, any opinions or experince

Thanks

I feel bad because I'm asking a question while not answering hobittle's,

BUT LEVI YOU ARE DOING A CONCURRENT DIPLOMA...
I guess that's doesn't mean you know the answer to my question though.. haha

[Ballerina]

I was on campus during VCESS and 'literally' ran into scribble on the staircase- she sprayed me with water ♥ - but I didn't see anyone with a charmanderp name tag! Or any other familiar faces! Disappointed.

Without knowing first hand, Masters and Honours programs seem to only require that you finish your undergraduate? Diplomas appear to be a separate affair and wouldn't be considered.

Engineering
(Biomedical)'

Hey Nat, yeah I know I would qualify to start the Masters but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to continue the concurrent diploma (as it says it's exclusively for UG studies) if I start PG studies.

[hobbitle]

The reason being I can't finish the concurrent diploma before id like to begin the masters

[scribble]

you can't graduate from your undergrad until you complete your diploma. so you won' be able to start postgrad/honours until the diploma is done.

[hobbitle]

Thaaanks Scribs that's the info I was after.... cheers mate.  Hmmm well that puts a spanner in the works.

[scribble]

yeah, it did for me too.

[hobbitle]

yeah, it did for me too.

Hence the overloading for you hey
Considering doing the Informatics one anyway and finishing in 3.5 years, taking 6 months off for travel and then begin the Masters.

[scribble]

yeah. Q_Q though there's a relatively large chance that i'll end up just dropping the diploma. I'm not sure how much i'll fancy overloading in third year.

has anyone managed to have a loan extended by a librarian? the whole 24 hour loan and no renews thing is really annoying at the moment since there's a bajillion copies of the book available because no one wants it over the holidays.
