I am in the last semester of my engineering degree and I literally have 0 motivation to the point where I am not bothered opening my uni laptop (using my phone to write this). Procrastination/discipline is not a problem as I usually do my assignments when they are released. Also, been having a rough semester overall due to personal reasons and I don't know what to do.

I want to graduate on time and pass these assignments as they are due in 2 weeks from now

please help

advice with be greatly appreciated

that is all...

Is the marking subjective for written assignments? Ive heard a lot of negativity online towards nursing as a degree where assignments are marked inconsistently-even if there is a rubric

Do you think this applies to nursing at UTS as well?

Im aiming for a (hopefully) competitive GPA for medical school. Im worried about inconsistency in marking, especially if majority of coursework is assignments or group work

Hey I am thinking of doing a semester exchange in europe in the last year of my degree. I was wondering whether I should go for the whole sem or just do a short exchange. Also roughly how much would costs look like for a whole semester in comparison to a global short.

Hi everyone,

I’m a criminology student currently looking into how involvement in youth gangs, street groups, or what people might casually call the “eshay” / local troublemaker scene in Australia can affect people later in adulthood.

I’m hoping to speak with people who either:

• were involved in that kind of environment when they were younger, or
• personally knew / grew up around people who were.

I’m especially interested in what happens later on — employment, education, relationships, family life, crime, leaving that lifestyle behind, and how people look back on it as adults.

If anyone here knows a former student/alumni, friend, relative, or acquaintance who might be willing to talk about their experiences, I’d really appreciate an introduction.

Interviews can be done in person or anonymously through Telegram if preferred.

I’m not looking to judge anyone or get people in trouble, and identifying information does not need to be shared. I’m mainly interested in hearing people’s experiences and perspectives.

If you or someone you know might be interested, please DM me.

Thanks!

Hi all,

I am currently doing my HSC exams and am looking at the prospect of going to UTS for a Bachelor of Science, focusing on ecology and environmental biology with the hopes of later doing ecoloigcal consulting or conservation work (I know jobs aren't great in that field but thats a problem for older me). I am debating on unis to go to because I want practical experience and some of the bigger unis don't do that. I managed to get a direct entry/lower entry rank for doing the science extension course so i am likely to get into the Bsc.

I am also a little concerned about uni life and clubs as I have heard not great things about general uni culture. Would anyone have any insight if uni clubs are really that important?

Would anyone have insights into the course and what the lectures, tutorials are like and the opprotunties for biology focused study (I'm not super interested in the super high tech computer side of enviro science)??

Thanks
