Nah I wasn't haha.

I'll probably be there asking questions about various postgraduate pathways and if possible find any freebies (there's usually not much nowadays though)

Compare the campus to Menzies :P
Yep, this weekend, not sure the times but I'm guessing 10am-4pm


Yeah, Monash had a few generic freebies, RMIT had none, expecting some from Melb atleast!

Yeah, it was designed by a UoM grad, luckily UoM grads didn't exist when their first buildings went up so they don't look so... crap :P

Oh, that was a secret government-funded ploy to keep the second-rate kids in their place ;) I hear Menzies has great views at the top though

Last year, when I went, I vividly remember the Chemistry facilities at UoM being superb - go check them out if you have time

I prefer the term: "underdogs".

But let's not turn this open day thread into a Monash vs UoM thread, UoM doesn't offer undergrad med, law, eng, pharm. Hence they lose.

"let's not turn this open day thread into a Monash vs UoM thread" followed directly by an attack on UoM *raised eyebrow*

Anyway, i'm going to be there as a guide! Hopefully the weather won't be too bad, the forecast has a few showers happening, but if the weather holds out it will be a great day! Just get there as early as you can, grab a program and find the sessions you want to go to, alternatively, if you have specific questions don't bother with the general info sessions, go straight to the information hubs for each degree and talk to a person, the general course info session are usually useless for anyone that has done a little research.

Weather will be nice for Melbourne. The weather for last year was superb! We won't be getting any of that this year
but let's just hope it doesn't bucket down on us
