What Are NSW Students Studying at University?

Aug 11, 2014

We came across these statistics today showing what and where students across NSW commenced their University education in 2013.

With most students now through their Trial Exams, now is a great time to do some research into the courses that you might be interested in studying next year.

The coaching staff at HSC CoWorks are studying Law, Commerce, Engineering, Advanced Science, Media and Education at UNSW and USYD so if you have any questions about their University or their course be sure to ask them!

What are students studying at Uni?

Emma Cohen

This week HSC CoWorks Coach, Emma Cohen tells us about her University experience so far.

Which University do you attend? 

I am currently completing a Bachelor of Arts/Law at UNSW, with a Major in International Development and Minor in Philosophy.

What do you like about your course so far? 

My “Arts” components are really interesting, whereas I find law quite challenging. I love the amount of thinking and discussion my degree requires.

I am constantly confronted with new ideas and different view points, and I do love a good argument!

What do you like about your University?

UNSW is great! I live on campus, so I’m completely entrenched in campus life.

The best part of uni is the freedom and independence: the hours are flexible, the lectures are a more relaxed environment compared to school and you already have so much in common with everyone you meet!

Make these 3 changes to your HSC preparation and watch your results improve:
1️⃣ Be clear on why you’re doing the work and what you’re aiming for. For many, motivation doesn’t just appear.. you need to work on it.
2️⃣ Take small, consistent and proactive actions instead of cramming and hoping it sticks.
3️⃣ Practice questions and writing even before you are ready. Most students will avoid this action until the week before an exam.. this is where marks are gained.
Most students know what to study. Top performing students have learned HOW to train.

Five reasons you’re not motivated.
Here’s the truth they don’t tell HSC students.
Motivation feels good, but it fades.
Discipline is what shows up on the days you don’t feel like it.
That’s what gets results in study and in life
Small changes in your study habits can completely change your HSC results.
Consistency > cramming.
Sydney students who fix the basics early always finish stronger. 📚
