It can be done. Should it be done? Well that's a whole different question.

Why did I downvote your post? Because, simply based on the secondary use of the word "can" as a verb makes it into a synonym for "may"; that is, you've basically asked the question he asked. Which is no help. Semantics, semantics...
Lol? The difference between can and may IS MASSIVE.

Can I go to the toliet? Yes you CAN - you have the ability
May I go to the toliet? Yes you MAY - go off to the toliet now kid.

The level of douchery today is astounding. This isn't just directed at the both of you, but seriously guys, what the hell is going on with this forum.

is that implying uni = easy? cos it's not!  >:(

but yeah i was pretty much addicted to gaming as well, but when uni started i realise i didnt have enough time to game, study and go uni, so i dropped the habit.

all in all, you can game during vce, no probs :), so long as ur enjoying urself

Agreed, I can usually get a game or 2 of starcraft 2 a night during VCE and now I just don't have the time to play any games. As long as you balance study and gaming it should be fine

Played runescape for 5-6 hours on the night before the english exam.


and first year uni is a bit like year 10, you can do well if you want, but you dont have to. + there are some subjects that you can bludge your way to good marks (but not excellent marks)

it really depends on ur course and units i guess.

but if you have 5 days a week course with semi-intense workload (like me) it might get hard.

i know some people who have 3 days, or even 2 days a week and it's a lot easier then

i guess it was a bit biased when i said uni = harder than vce, sorry :P

all depends on the course, engineering/science/med is a killer while arts is piss easy (massive generalisation :P)
