100 characters to demonstrate academic awards? That's barely one award. I'm no high achiever and clearly if i'm running out of room there's a problem. Then, 150 characters for extra-curricular activities? That's even worse. Am i doing it wrong or is this a widespread problem?

humph:
Keep it brief, all dot points. Use abbreviations when it's obvious. But yes, it is quite difficult to fit everything in.

Duck:
Hmm I guess, thanks. Off topic but I figure I should ask someone who's at ANU: the most common negative I get when I mention that I'm considering going to anu is that canberra's a hole but I don't mind it (been there once before) but I've also had a fee people say that anu, law in particular, is marked very hard to maintain reputation. Have you or anyone you know found this, particularly in the commerce and law faculties if possible?

humph:
Canberra's not a hole! It's a lot quieter than Melbourne or Sydney but it's still a nice place to live.
Law is famously marked particularly harshly at ANU - that is, the bell curve is very sharp in the sense that very few marks over 880 are awarded. Other degrees are marked normally for the most part.

Duck:
Well that sucks. Oh well, I guess more lenient marking is a reward for getting 98.whatever.
