Melb Uni ranking?

[brendan]

Still wondering why ANU is so high ranked?

Because they are good at research

[AppleXY]

they also have CSIRO with them, close by (i dunno lol)

ANU doesn't need to advertise.

Lol really? I guess those who can be bothered researching will know about it, but many people I ask at my school haven't heard about it or have thought it to be 'just another' university. For many victorians the only things that exist are Melbourne/Monash.

You're right /0

But the biggest thing that shits me about student todya is that they don;t research univesity/admissions properly

It saves alot of trouble/heartache

However perhaps this is a fault of the schools for not encouraging independent learning

Most Victorians don't want to leave Victoria... Few consider USyd or UNSW either, even though they're two of the top unis in Australia.

And as previously stated, one of the main reasons that ANU is ranked first is its research, which is easily the best in Australia. That being said, its undergraduate teachings are also quite highly rated.

  I'd see many more experts from ANU commenting on the news than any other Australian university, [when I used to watch the news]

Hmm I had never heard of ANU until late last yr when I saw what course Eriny was doing.
Now it's my top preferance.

I agree. My careers teacher just seems to assume that because my school's in Geelong everyone wants to go to Deakin.
Melbourne or Monash are ocassionally mentioned but that's about it.

[costargh]

I'm scared of applying for ANU lol

they also have CSIRO with them, close by (i dunno lol)

Monash also has CSIRO with them near by

Monash <<<<<<<<<< ANU. Srsly. Especially with regards to maths.

It's far away. I know my parents don't want me to apply. Some of my friends would prefer if I didn't apply. I don't even know if I'd be able to handle it. I know Melbourne so well, it would be weird living somewhere where I was a stranger and where I'd have a lack of geographical understanding

Lol, yeah. I'm so familiar to Melbourne, that I just never want to move out to another city

[psychlaw]

you'd get used to it, especially if your there for a couple of years (5 if I get into the course I want)
