What do you think UNSW will be like?

Research into higher education has indicated that there can be a wide gap between students' expectations 

of university life and the reality.

Your expectations of university will have a huge impact on the success of your first year of study. Students often have the wrong expectations about the workload, marks, assessment difficulty of their course content, the nature of their chosen programme, and the need for IT literacy.

Expectations vs. Reality

Having the wrong expectations can make it difficult for you to adapt and leave you unprepared for the realities of uni life. You may be unaware of something that is really important to know. On the other hand, you might also be worrying, needlessly, about something that is not going to happen.
So, how realistic are your expectations?
