Agreed on the general info session. Look at unimelb's website and you'll get the same info. Open days are generally not for course information, but for getting a "feel" for the place you could be spending the next 4+ years at. Make sure you feel 'at home,' as no rankings, prestige or even scholarship money (obviously varies depending on the amount) will make up for feeling out of place. Just a thought.

The anatomy museum is open to the public for this one day of the year, so if you're interested in that at all (even if you're not planning on a career in that field) come along. I am apparently volunteering there and it'll be pretty good.

Also lol@the desperate monash comparisons

Maybe you'll end up a surface anatomy body painting model :P

Kids, i you want freebies - definitely check out the spot building. Commerce is probably melb uni's biggest money spinner. ^.^
Check out the underground spot lecture theatre. It's awesome.

Ah the math building. Do they still do the MIT challenge or any other events like that there? That was the only reason why I knew that place.

Very strange things occur there, for instance, here's a sample question: Dana and QC are both fanatical about Pokemon. Dana is a farmer of four legged Treenycorns. QC is a farmer of the spectacular Bibarel, which is also normally four legged. However, QC is a hard mistress and hacks off one leg from each Bibarel so she can sell them on the black market. If QC has twice as many Bibarel as Dana has Treenycorns, and there are 90 legs in total, how many Pokemon do they own in total?

1) The spot lecture halls are amazing
2) Treenycorn is not a Pokemon
3) Bidoofs are cooler than Bibarels
4) They are doing the maths challenge there tomorrow as far as I know
5) THE WEATHER HAS CHANGED TO MOSTLY CLOUDY TOMORROW! THANK YOU WEATHER GODS! hahaha
