Just came across this site which rates Unis. It also has comments from 'students' who have are at the institutions. Don't know how reliable but maybe a little useful.

I reckon 5.7 is pretty generous.

Most of the people who go onto that site would be looking to have a whinge. I find it amusing that the picture for UoM isn't even part of the uni: it's Queen's College, lol.

I don't know if RMIT even have an on-campus foodcourt, but it's ridiculously close to hungry jack's, nando's etc.

I thought RMIT has lectures and buildings all over the city, not just in one place. I may be wrong.

I know a lot of people at RMIT who are really frustrated by the location. Not that many classes are in the main buildings on Swanston: you could find yourself going all over the city and Carlton to get to classes. It's not that easy to meet up with your friends for lunch in the city when you finish a class on Lygon street and have another one there an hour later.

RMIT does seem like a major bitch to go around... a little cramped i found too...


University rankings are bullshit anyway and are based on things that arent relevant to some students (eg.research instead of quality of teaching) and they might be more than a bit dodgy. A group of people tried to reproduce the shanghai jiao tong rankings but they couldn't.

The RMIT food court place seems pretty cool, but yes inconvenient. Good thing that most of the CBD could conceivably be the food court ;)
