He hasn't picked a major yetAt least to my knowledge

Yea, I know, unfortunately it means you tend to forget much of what you learnt in school though (like maths) and have to start again at uni.
So he hasn't applied for any courses yet? Here we submit our course preferences before the final exams, and find out if we got in in January.
Originally posted by katherine94:[..]
Yeah, that makes sense
I think he has to take core classes for the first two years, and in the third and fourth years he focuses on his major

Oh, so do you mean major as in the specialization of a degree?
Like say you can do a Business degree with either a Marketing major or Management major.
If so what degree is he doing?
Originally posted by katherine94:[..]
Yeah, that's what I meant.
Again, I have no clue
I'm useless

Lol, you must be like me, I don't even know my younger sis' exact age.
Well hopefully he finds uni fun, it's very different from high school (well at least here it is).
You actually do less work than high school most of the time, until you get to the end of semester and have exams and assignments due

That's what I've heard. My folks say it's got a lot more freedom

Yea, too much freedom even, it's really hard to work when they'res no one telling you what you have to do. You have to have self-discipline, which I need more of.
BTW did u know that Brian Eno is in Sydney until the 14th? He's curating this art festival in the city, I really want to go down to the harbour and see, but I have exams
Originally posted by katherine94:[..]
That's where I think my bro is going to have issues
Ah, that sucks, I'd like to see Brian
Originally posted by vanquish:[..]
Yea, I actually posted a couple of pics of the festival in this thread

It's based around light.
They're projecting his artwork "77 Million Paintings" onto the sails of the Opera House among other things.

Yea, it's pretty impressive isn't it. And to think some people were complaining that Sydney only got Brian Eno while Melbourne got Tiger Woods for their tourism festival.
I really want to go... I was actually planning to ask one of my maths friends to come along with me after uni, but she had a flu so I didn't think taking her to the harbour at night would be the best idea.
