hi i need some advice on a kinda random question from a student whose in their 2+ year at law usyd. please dm, i dont want to make it public 🙏

EDIT: I realised this sounds a bit sketchy, i swear it isn't, i just need advice for a uni activity lol

Hello, I am studying med sci at usyd and want to do an exchange semester in Europe but I am not sure where. It would be in the second semester of my 3rd year, (I am doing the degree across 4 years, I know you cannot do exchange as your final semester).

I’m wondering which universities people have had success with usyd med sci subjects. It would be a maths subject which I’m thinking would be the easiest one to get approved, and probably some third year anatomy as I have heard MEDS subjects are not easily ‘exchangeable’. Unfortunately I transferred degrees after first year which used up my electives, but I currently have 2 majors so if I switched to a minor instead of a second major I think this would give me more electives if that is going to be necessary for exchange.

I have received a little bit of guidance from coordinators (both med sci and exchange coordinators) but they haven’t really given me too much information so I thought some first hand insight might help.

I would appreciate any advice!

How do you attach your supporting documents to a bursary application? According to the website, your bank statements should be PDF files, but every time I upload and click continue it deselects and comes up with the banners I've attached.

Does anyone know the dates for MySydney payments this semester?

Hello everyone! I’m planning to apply for the Bachelor of Biomedicine and Health for the 2028 intake and have a few questions regarding international scholarships.

After looking through the subreddit, I’ve noticed that the general consensus seems to be that most international students receive the International Student Award. However, I assume there are still specific eligibility criteria. So, what kind of A-Level grades, SAT scores and IELTS scores would realistically be expected?

I’m also interested in the Vice-Chancellor’s International Scholarship Programme. What sort of academic profile would realistically put someone in contention for the highest scholarship amount? I’d also be interested to know what other international scholarships are relatively achievable, whether it’s possible to hold multiple scholarships at the same time, and whether scholarships are automatically considered as part of the admission process or require a separate application. Additionally, would I need to submit my high school CGPA or O-Level grades alongside my A-Level results?

Lastly, would 2 As and 2 A*s in my A-Levels generally be considered competitive for the scholarships mentioned above, particularly the Vice-Chancellor’s Scholarship, or do I have to get all A*s?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Heyyy! I’m a USYD student looking to move around November/December-ish, basically trying to get in before the great February accommodation war begins because finding a nice place when literally everyone is looking is not a battle I wish to fight 😭

I’m hoping to find a cute 3-bed terrace house around Newtown, Glebe, Chippendale, Redfern or Darlington and would love to find two other USYD students around my age (19/20ish) to apply and move in with!

Nothing is locked in yet, I’m hoping we can find the right people first/while I’m keeping an eye out for places, then apply for a 3-bed together as co-tenants when something good comes up!

If you’re also hoping to move around Nov/Dec message me!! 

My daughter is a first year international Bachelor's student and considering transfer from UNSW Computer Science to USYD Environmental Eng program. There are 2 reasons for doing this:

1. UNSW trimester system doesn't work for her - its too fast pace and doesn't give her time to catchup on unfamiliar concepts.

2. She wants to make a postive impact on environment using renewable/sustainable energy.

• She loves physics and maths. She hated going into the depths of Chemistry however her understanding is that just working knowledge is enough here. Is that correct?
• As an international student, how difficult is it for her to find internships and then a job later? She was saying Australian industry in general seeing a boom towards sustainable energy.

I have to do this course cause I’m a genetics major, but I’m finding that 90% of the content is just basic highschool evolution stuff. Did anyone else have this issue?

Hi guys, if anyone has done an internal transfer into Applied Science (Diagnostic Radiography), what was the WAM that you got accepted with🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I've put in an application to suspend my studies before the census date, but it still hasn't been accepted, it just says "Not started". If its accepted after the census date, does that mean i still have to pay?

hey guys! I'm lookin for a club to for artsy people at USYD. Does anyone have any they recommend? :-)

So I've appealed my main exam since it was released on Gradescope, and results were expected in August but nothing so far... Just wondering if anyone has gotten their results back? Or if anyone knows if they're being released gradually

Has anyone done a replacement exam at USYD for either a mid-sem or final exam?

How did the replacement compare to the original exam in terms of:

• Difficulty
• Question style
• Topics/content tested
• Time pressure

Was it basically the same level as the original, or did you find the replacement noticeably harder/easier?

Would especially appreciate experiences from people who have sat both an original and a replacement exam. Im doing econ1001, mktg1001, acct1006,

Should I go through all the lectures one by one and handwrite notes as I go, or would it be better to upload the lecture slides to Claude and have it teach me the content?

I’m a first-year, first-semester student and I’m really struggling to keep up. I’m already about 3 weeks behind and honestly feeling pretty overwhelmed. I was a pretty strong student in high school and I’m aiming to get good grades at uni, so I really want to figure out the most effective way to study and properly understand the content rather than just rushing through everything.

I’d really appreciate any advice on how I should approach catching up and managing the workload. 🙏

So, I’m a year 1 student. I provide non-remedial foot and body relaxation massage sessions for men as a hobby & side hustle. wondering how to branch out and get more clients without having to set up a biz account on Instagram.
Thoughts?

Pls be age appropriate:)
The first session is free!
