any melbourne uni student here?? 

i think im in the same situation as babyboop. i will be sitting for spm this year. and i really wish to study abroad in australia as my relatives are living there. so i don't have to worry about the accommodation. somehow, can i straight away fly to australia and take up diploma for business there after my spm examination? do i have to take year 12? do i have to take up english test like IELTS before going there?

just to share my experience.
uni of melb and anu gave me an offer without requiring me to do ielts.
i did GCE A-levels with General paper.

i guess so.. i think they r that desperate for international students(=$$$). and i did get a scholarship from uni of melb due to recommendation from sunway U.college. but i think still got abit standard la when they choose their students, my fren took ielts a few times but still unable to to meet their mark... they die oso dunwan reduce their entry requirement = =...

Really? I heard from my friends that last year was even colder than this year.

^ I personally think it was colder this year, but I don't really listen to the news n stuff

Hey guys.

We are just 20 posts away from the so-called 2500 limit. The new thread is here. http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=ST&f=68&t=783016

However, I would like to have the FAQ's compiled, list of members in Australia ported, and the living guides updated and formatted before I open them. Please PM them to me, complete with formatting and all.

Thanks.

and with this i shall close this thread.
