Have any friends studying in Australia told me the level of the University of Sydney?

Author: Want to know more about TOEFL and studying abroad, you can pay attention to the official account of WeChat.

This can be written slowly, background, University of Sydney B Com LLB, 2005-2009.

Although I have studied at the University of Sydney for five years, I feel that I have only scratched the surface. Every college and every major is very different.

The whole gives me the deepest feeling: history. Although the University of Sydney is still young compared with Niujian University (founded in 1850), it is the first university in Australia. Because it is the oldest, the advantages of traditional disciplines are naturally obvious (such as medicine and law). As for medicine, the top public hospitals in Sydney are basically teaching hospitals of the University of Sydney.

What I like most about the University of Sydney is its ancient buildings, which are definitely more domineering than all other universities in Sydney.

To say that shortcomings are also history, the burden is too heavy and the reform is difficult. Can you imagine that in 2007, the school computer is still using Win2000, the student ID card is a piece of paper wrapped in plastic, the online teaching resources are slightly equal to none, the homework needs a 3.5-inch disk, and the Macintosh is a color iMac? However, from the year of graduation, I finally made a lot of innovations (I received a lot of money from international students)

The second short board should be the canteen. Although I heard that the campus is now open and has made a lot of progress, the quality of several canteens in my school can be said to be terrible. Fortunately, it is not far from Newtown, one of Sydney's coffee shrines. Campos has been called a god-class coffee shop for many years.

-Let's talk about college.

The first is law school (please drop down if you want to study business). The word "first" in the slogan of "Australia First Law School" is not only the earliest meaning, but also the best meaning. It is said that the Law School of the University of Sydney is the first in Australia, and the students of the University of Melbourne may be a little unconvinced, so we won't argue here. There is not much difference between the first and the second.

Student:

As for law school students, they can probably be divided into elite secondary schools and private secondary schools. Elite middle schools (equivalent to key middle schools in China) generally come from middle-class families and study hard. They are all tyrants (my college entrance examination score in law school was 99.45/ 100). These people rarely become lawyers after graduation, and most of them go to banks. Many private middle schools have legal family backgrounds and like to hold groups by themselves. Most of these people have become the backbone of the political and legal circles.

The alumni lineup is strong, with 50 judges in the history of the Supreme Court of Australia, 23 in the University of Sydney, five prime ministers, ten ministers of justice, and so on.

Campus:

When I was in Sydney Law School, I happened to meet the construction of a new law school. This is the only group of students who have experienced three different campuses of the law school.

Freshmen to juniors have nothing to boast about because the dual-degree courses are all in the old campus of the University of Sydney.

Later, I was lucky enough to go to the old campus of law school, next to Xinzhou High Court and Lawyers Association. It is the core of Sydney law, but the empty lobby of that building, the elevator buttons that can be changed at will, and countless floors give you air conditioning all year round, which reminds people of MIB. ...........

When I was in the third year of high school, the new law school was repaired and returned to the main campus. The new building is very good, the sofas are all over the floor, and I sleep casually. Most of the buildings are underground, but I don't feel superior in my heart. I heard that the University of Sydney invited the law school to move back to the main campus and told the dean that I would give you the best position in the university. Dean's answer is, we already have the best position in the whole continent, why should we go back?

Courses:

When I first entered school, the most profound influence was the "legal foundation" like a blow.

Although it is the first undergraduate course, it is definitely the most difficult one. At the beginning of school, I bought textbooks and distributed hundreds of pages of reading materials. After calculation, the average reading volume of each class is not less than 50 pages.

Finish the first homework in the second week, or I will go to the court to attend and write a transcript myself. At that time, I didn't know anything about going to the court to attend, and it was also foggy. Fortunately, I was lucky to meet a simple traffic accident case and passed the customs safely. )。

The arrangement of the course is also the strangest, not only the seminars twice a week (unlike other colleges, the seminars in law schools are all taught by lecturers, not by tutors), but also a lecture. However, lecturers are guests every week, including judges of the High Court and the Minister of Justice. In short, it is a well-known alumni show in law school, and the topics in each class are even more varied. It was not until the last two weeks that I realized that these lectures were not the scope of the exam! ! !

Last exam, I thought it was easy to take home, but it turned out to be a 5000-word paper! !

In the second semester, I feel that there are many fewer people in the class. ...

The highest point of the whole law school should be to attend Shanghai Winter School, and High is a cooperative project between Xida Law School and East China Politics and Law. I stayed in Shanghai for two months, studying the legal system in China. That's basically after class at three o'clock every day, and then all kinds of bars (parties, law school is absolutely active).

PS。 Draw a hatred and write it to those who want to go to other law schools, and quote a line from our law school musical: "Your Honor, I will call our expert witness."

"What qualifications does he have?"

Mq University

"Not qualified! ! "

-Then come back and write business school.

Compared with law school, the reputation of the University of Sydney Business School is much worse. The accounting major is not as good as MQ and UNSW, and the MBA program has withdrawn from the Australian Graduate School of Management (now it is completely part of UNSW). Relying on the reputation of the University of Sydney itself, it can be considered that thin camels are bigger than horses. However, I heard that the dean of UNSW recently jumped to the University of Sydney, and the University of Sydney jumped to UNSW. I wonder if there will be dramatic changes.

When I was at the University of Sydney, I happened to meet the beginning of the upsurge of studying in Australia, and business schools were the wave. At that time, most students, especially those majoring in accounting, were international students from China. Unlike European and American universities, Australian universities have limited dormitories and most students live in scattered places. Naturally, most international students live in various Chinese gathering places. Recently, the activities of overseas students' groups have become more and more active, which has a great influence on college life. I believe that the life of international students in business school will be smoother now.

The courses in business schools are similar to those in other universities. Generally speaking, there will be a large class and two remedial classes in one class a week. It's just that the pass rate of the exam is still quite high, which is much more humane than MQ's almost unqualified rate.

On campus, the main buildings of business schools are only computer rooms and offices, and most classrooms are used by other colleges or the public. So sometimes I feel that my sense of belonging to the college is not so strong.
