Not for me but not bad

Anonymous rated 3 out of 5 stars

I switched courses lots of times in the last three years and I have now decided to switch to Curtin University. I’m saying that UWA was a great uni very prestigious but perhaps not for me. I did make a lot of friends whom I’ll miss Review provided by EDUopinions (www.eduopinions.com)

Psychology honours

Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars

I just finished my psychology honours this year! It was a tough year, tough process but so rewarding. I ended up doing really well and I’m so glad UWA was the university that I completed my undergraduate and honours. I look forward to further postgraduate studies after my gap year.
