If your results 70~75+ Clayton
If your results 65+ Caulfield
If your results 50~64 Berwick/Caulfield

You can also transfer to peninsula or gippsland I think, tho I don't know of anyone who did.

I do know someone taking pharmacology, but not pharmacy.

And, what particular help do you need for your application to Clayton, Tom Welling?

Heyo YOKE.

Aight, anyone know how graduation works?

I want to apply for the December graduation ceremony in Clayton, but when I click "Apply to Graduate", it doesn't give me an option to specify my graduation date... so.......

Yeah, I attended a friend's grad in clayton campus on thursday. Damn awesome, but at the same time... he was dead tired. 3-8pm you wear ur robe... and you walk around campus, and call friends/family/acquaintances to take pix, they congratulate u... talk talk... all when you're wearing a suit and the uber heavy graduation robe (for guys lah).

And it was a very hot day that day (28 C).

I dread to think of my graduation in December..

I think it would be better for you if you called the landlords directly and not go through third parties.

Also, I would encourage you to go and look at the room for yourself, and see how far the walking distance is from uni.

You wouldn't want to be having a long, long walk alone in the dark back from uni, trust me. Especially in notorious Sunway.

Anyway, exam timetables are out.

Mine's on the 15th and 16t, both 2.30pm at the Caulfield Racecourse.

Howz ya'lls?

I spend about RM800-RM1k a month, inclusive of everything from paying for my toilet entries to shopping =)

Some months, you spend only 600 due to assignment periods, others, prolly 1200 especially after exams. So I would say, I spent 800-1k per month, on average.

Not sure of the prices now. That was in 2007/2008

oi nokia, she's talking about sunway campus punya laaa!

1k isn't really a lot. I mean, thats what my parents give me. Really depends how much you spend on what.

Some people shop every week. Some people treat themselves to delicacies and fine dining frequently. Some people read a lot, and spend a lot on books. Some people go to the movies like 3-4 times a week. Some people spend a lot on pool and foosball. Some people club a lot. Some people drink a lot. And then there are some like me, who game a lot (Asia Cafe robbed me off I think 4 figures already =X

Sooo... it really depends on your lifestyle.

Basic expenditure in Sunway area

RM450-800 for accomodation depending on type and location
RM200-300 for good food (please don't starve yourselves, go get some good food... KL air is already a killer, don't kill your body anymore by eating sucky and unhealthily cheap food all the time.
RM100 for entertainment? drinking, movies, whatever...
RM50 for misc spending, books, clubs and societies, parties, birthday presents, etc.

I don't think RM800-1k is a lot... this is Sunway/Subang area we're talking about, not like other colleges punya area where you can get like RM150 for a single room =.= no such rates here, unfortunately =/

I drool at the AUD120 for daily meals for an entire month. WTF?

AUD120 for 30 meals ah? Summore CATERED? I think thats a damn good deal. I mean, even though we cook, after dividing, its about RM80 per person per month. I wouldn't mind paying 40 more, and no need to waste time cooking =D

But then, my cooking skills improved tremendously during my time here ;D


ohya, I have 2 papers only because

1) its my last sem, i only have 3 subs (thanks to me having taken a summer in sunway in my 1st year)
2) out of the 3 subjects, one of my electives (Money Market Operations AFF3301) is a 100% internal assessment - without any final paper
3) so i'm left with 2 ;D but unfortunately, they HAD to be back to back

The sunway campus sports facilities is non-existent. Pitiful for a "world class" university >_>

But you can't brand monash just like that. Did you know... Team Monash in Australia especially in Clayton.. their badminton team is world class. I'm serious. The players there are serious players and there are many state players from the Selangor team and state teams, and they represent Victoria and NSW for certain tournaments.

From what I know, even some Singapore youth national team players cannot represent Monash, because they already have too good a team.

I know it may sound meh to anyone not into badminton, but if you are a badminton player, you will know that if you can play on par with state players, you're very very keng ady ;D

Eh? There's a basketball court in Monash now? wtfux?

Well... actually, I realised that the students in Monash Sunway are not really opiniated and don't voice out their frustrations to the university. I think you guys should work with MUSA to ask them to have more sports facilities on campus.

Or at least, work with sunway club to have memberships for monash students or something... really, sports makes a student's life more balanced - and its easier to make friends through sports too. This should enhance the international student's education experience in Malasyia.

Only if you have a high average, I think thats about 70+

Yup tingtongten. I think you should scout around in Monash marketplace.

ALSO, you have to know where you want to live.

The number of South-Eastern suburbs of Melbourne that are popular with Monash students are

Clayton, Mulgrave, Springvale, Glen Waverly, Oakleigh, Boxhill and anywhere within 15 mins walk to the clayton campus - blackburn road, wellington road, somewhere along the princes highway, and the Rusden apartments. [Clayton campus students]

Malvern, Glen Huntly, Murumbeena, Caulfield, Carnegie, Armadale - and anywhere within 15 mins walk to the caulfield campus - all around the city of Glen Eira. A lot of students also choose to live in the city. [Caulfield campus students]

I don't know about Berwick unfortunately. I'm only familiar with these 2 campuses

I think its a 65% to 70%?

I know biz is 70% and I heard engineering you need only 65% but its kinda hard to get 65% above in eng.

But this is my advice. Do your best in your 1st year. That's where the easy HDs (High Distinctions) come from. After years 1 and 2... you'll be on your knees thanking god if you can even get Cs (Credits) and Ds (Distinctions).

But its great fun if you really love engineering \

good luck
