Want an extra challenge?

Some UNSW Science courses offer “higher” versions for students who want an extra challenge. These courses are not more highly weighted, nor do they give you any extra bonus points - they’re simply offered to provide an extra challenge for students who excel in a particular subject level.

Still have questions?

Remember that the course combination you enrol into today is not set in stone – you can discuss your enrolment with The Nucleus: Student Hub and fine-tune your enrolment before term starts.
