they don't even need to have 'open day' for undergraduate medicine......there are many more times eligible applicants than places.....

we will see how the graduate entry application numbers are like in 2011.........many graduate programmes find that they are NOT attracting the best students......

want to ask something here.
will my friend be taxed if i sent some textbook over to australia? because its cheaper to buy it here and be sent there.

thanks alot

Employers have to pay super for you if you are eligible.
To be eligible you must:
- be at least 18 years of age and under 70   
- be paid at least $450 (before tax) in a calendar month, and   
- work full time, part-time or on a casual basis.

If you are under 18, you are eligible for compulsory super guarantee if you work more than 30 hours a week.

If you are eligible for super, your employer must pay a minimum of 9% of your earnings for your ordinary hours of work into your super account. These payments are ‘super guarantee’ payments or ‘employer contributions’.

As temporary residents, international students who have worked in Australia are eligible to access their super once they permanently depart Australia.

To access you super, instructions and forms can be found on the ATO Website
Hope that helps!

250 sticks of ciggies per person max IIRC

Thanks for ther head up dilz! Finally, something in plain English!

Well that explains. I've got to work 19 hrs a wk. Seems like me employer is trying to maximise the 20hrs intl students get. And I can only touch it after I leave Australia. I need the dough now, not when I leave! >.<

Dont think so.I think,even taxed,it's still cheaper to buy here.

Get from amazon then...
BTW, yeah. the books in Aus are quite expensive, but dun forget, you can use it for tax return...
