Sorry, El2012. :( Although in getting myself in this position I put myself under a lot of stress not to fall behind! Maybe it wasn't worth it and I could have enjoyed my first seven weeks a little bit more.

Haha i'm just so envious of your position right now! I've got lectures from week 3 for some of my subjects that I haven't made notes on due to gamsat preparation. Enjoy the break while you can!

Unlikely to respond to any PMs these days.

I think I've been doing things wrong, since I'm up to date with essentially no homework to do. Hence, I'll be catching up on sleep (although my version of poor sleep hygiene is basically a perfect sleep hygiene for everyone else lol) and meeting up with some old friends from school who don't go to The University of Melbourne.

There are no wrong ways as long as they work out well for you.

Thank you to the earlier person who posted the gender statistics of each faculty for The University of Sydney. It's interesting!

http://sydney.edu.au/staff/planning/statistics/enrol/enrol.php?ci=3&type=fac&yr=2013

BEFORE YOU LOOK AT THE COLUMNS OR BELOW, guess the male:female ratio for each faculty n_n

I was wrong for business, law, medicine, pharmacy, science, music ahahaha. Many lols regarding the nursing ratio, damn son. Those are some very fortunate men. And I was surprising at the engineering ratios...it seems a lot more dramatic than that, like 7:1. And I should have been more accurate for science. I forgot that there tends to be more females who enroll in undergraduate courses in general, and more males who enroll in postgraduate courses in general. The ratio seemed more even in my classes.

I should really think about getting into nursing.

It's funny that. When women are underrepresented, it's an awful injustice (which it is). Yet when men are underrepresented they're lucky because of all of the women around them...

It's not just that. Societally imposed gender roles allow men more freedom to choose to study what they want, but we still force women into certain fields (education, social work, nursing, etc) and exclude them or mistreat them in other fields (engineering, medicine, the business sector, etc). Men aren't underrepresented in fields like nursing because of a lack of choice - in fact it's the very opposite; they consciously move away from them and aren't prevented from being successful in doing so by archaic, patriarchal attitudes.

Underrepresentation in the context it's applied normally probably isn't even an appropriate word here. It's a completely different reason as to why women are underrepresented in the commerces/sciences (not so much in undergraduate study, but in the actual work force), though fortunately the gender/work paradigm is changing (but slowly). That's why it's not comparable injustice.

Hey guys,

a quick question.

Since someone told me that the biol10004 guys don't provide sample exams, does anyone have a form of preparation material for that subject?

how should I prepare for the exam?
