Dear Old World
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 12 พ.ย. 2013
I want to acknowledge that I live on the land of the Gadigal people. I want to acknowledge that my enjoyment of the bush and where I live, is a result of the pain and suffering of Aboriginal peoples. I am sorry and I want to pay my respects to elders past, present and emerging.
Hellooo friend :)
I'm Mel, I'm a recent graduate from UNSW Sydney, Australia, and I completed a semester-long exchange in the UK at the University of Manchester in 2019/20 (this is probably how you found me)! I studied Economics and Development Studies, am obsessed with bubble tea and want to see the world become a better place - one filled with more compassion for others.

overall would you recommend unsw to a probable future student?
Loved the whole choas of the video, felt so real 😂❤. Bless you.
I like your vlogs❤❤❤❤❤❤
You're so funny 😂😂😂 ❤ 1:25
What’s the background music?
Cool video. I’ve thought about what it’d be like to travel to really far places on the Sydney trains before but never actually did it.
❤❤❤so beautiful being spontaneous. What train lines would you recommend from your journey? :)
Omgosh! So beautiful. I’m entertaining the idea of visiting soon. What tips would you recommend/to bring?❤
beautiful park near my home. I and my daughter would love to join you guys
A strong passion for languages was born in me but I'm not good at it, I don't know if my fatigue is connected to my being sensitive, introverted and blocked or not because I noticed that most people can study languages easily , I don't know if they were all born with the innate predisposition and I together with the minority are the only losers who don't have it and if you need to have a talent not to struggle with languages ___;
Hi, do you find people in England friendly or Austrailia?
this is top content, im finishing soon too
You should go to punctual 😃
Please make video on pranks in university
I love how you put just one cut of the university cuz quite frankly, it rains everyday and it doesn't really help people who like the sun. I wonder how you came to choose this uni...
Is dalton Ellis?
Is expensive living in Manchester?
What accommodation hall did you stay at ? :)
heyyy i wanted to ask where you sleeping at is it at the dorms
Are the exams timed? I study at Unimelb as a criminology major and most exams are essays that you have a couple of days to write. I'm worried when I go on exchange its going to be the 1 or 2 hour structure and I haven't done an exam like that for social science subjects in about 2 years. Could you share your opinion on this please?
hey could I please have some clarity regarding this if you know?
Loved the video
Hey! Just wondering what kinds of unis would rank higher than UNSW in terms of experience? From what friends have said it seems that the experience across AU unis is quite similar?
YOU ARE SO ADORABLE I LOVE YOU
hey! This video was really insightful!! absolutely adored it. just wanted to know something, and I'd be really grateful if you had the time to answer: how is the comp sci and engineering major? and I've heard that UNSW has really good opportunities for internships and extra curriculars compared to other unis? does that depend on mostly teachers to student ratio or is that true in all faculties? would love it if you have the time to answer! best of wishes for your future journey!!
Yes. Where are you Mel?? Do more vlogsssssssss

Hey! I'm a university of Melbourne student and im thinking of going on exchange to University of Manchester. Could you help me out with how to find cheap accomodation as I want to spend more on travelling than accomodation. Google is just overwhelming me when I try to search for student accomodation. Any tips?
Hi Samantha, I stayed in the uni accommodation so I don't have much experience with finding student accomodation, however, I know that some people used www.spareroom.co.uk (I think it's the British version of flatmates). Not sure if that's helpful at all. Good luck with your search!
Loved your video !!!!
It looks like a very honest review. Thanks a lot!

The Round House is a vibe - $9 burger, chips and drink! 😋 Gotta be the best part of UNSW ahaha
Oh god the slems hall rooms are giving me flashbacks!! It used to smell of sweaty boys and weed there. Lol i used to live in st gabriels hall (all girls) back 2003-2006 and st anselms hall was our brother hall so we always socialise and have events with them. My best friends till this day are from slems. :)
Wow, thank you for sharing!
St anselm hall aka slems used to be an all boys hall. :)
Hey ,i just completed my degree in DPT ,now i wanted to do master in public health, i wanna know about is this university offer this program and what are their requirements.

What is your opinion on Denmark Road and Unsworth Park? I am an international student coming to Manchester this year and to be honest, I am not the party type ( nor a social person 😅)
I love all your vids!!! They are so well put together!
Thank you so much, Phoebe!
it was really helpful! Thank for making the video!
Thanks for sharing! So interesting to hear! I also posted a uni video recently 😁
Hi! Thank you so much for this video, it was super helpful :) I just have few questions if you have a bit of time: How would you say the commerce and economics lecturers are? Did you find that they were supportive and that the education was of a high quality in comparison to other aussie unis? Also...do you know if people who graduate with a commerce or economics degree are very employable in sydney?
Please keep in mind that this is just my perspective. On the whole, I personally didn't find the economics lecturers to be very supportive. In part, this is because the cohort for economics/commerce is relatively large and lecturers don't really build a relationship with most students (unless you become a research assistant, tutor, honours student, etc.). To be fair, this is probably my fault as well because I never went to consultation hours, however, the lecturers (on the whole) aren't the kind that seem like they want to help you because they care about you - there were definitely some exceptions to this though. This was very different to my experience with my Arts (Global Development) degree where I was part of a small cohort and built a personal relationship with my lecturers. With those lecturers I felt comfortable enough to discuss my career concerns, debate theories, etc. and you could really tell that they cared about their students. In terms of the quality of education, I think that the Economics curriculum at UNSW is good because there is that quantitative focus. In terms of employability, I think that this is really important as working with data is becoming increasingly important and it gives you some of those 'technical skills'. I can't really say how it compares with other Australian universities as I haven't taken those courses, however, I believe that the University of Sydney may be a bit more theoretical/social-science based. I think that an Economics/Commerce degree does make you quite employable in Sydney, however, what's really important is to build your outside-of-uni experience e.g. internships, part-time work, etc. This outside experience is what employers are looking at these days. Hopefully that was somewhat helpful ☺️ Sorry for the essay 😅
@@DearOldWorld Thank you so so much!! It's great to hear about your expirience...so I can be prepared and make a good choice :) Its a pity that you found the lectures abit impersonal but I'm glad to hear about your perspective on employability. Thanks once again.
@@DearOldWorld Does unsw help with internships and part-time work? Also, is there placement at the end of one's degree if one pursues a business/management course from unsw?
Wow your university very nice
hi! i have one question. are you able to choose who are going to be your flatmates or it is all random?
All random :)
Plz answer this if you see this. 1. Im very interested in joining Manchester University Im in year 12 and so far my grades are a bit awful. If I improve significant in year 13 can I still get accepted. 2. Can you explain your applications process because I'm very confused on where to start. 3. What are some of the engineering courses there? Is mechatronics engineering offered?. Thanks in advance
WOW NO DISLIKES THAT'S GREAT
