Are you ready for exams???

The SP5 exam timetable is now online, have a look at the exam website for more information.

If you require any accommodations or adjustments for your exams on the basis of your disability, you need a current access plan. If you don't have an access plan or you need to update your access plan, please do this before 7th October. After this date, we may not be able to assist you with accommodations for your exams in November.
Exam Resources:

• Online information about planning and studying for exam success can be accessed here.
• Exam anxiety is felt by many students, and you can find strategies to minimise its impact on your exams here.
• You may like to attend a workshop on 'Taking a Uni Exam'. This workshop will provide students with strategies to build confidence in taking university exams.

Want to be part of a research project about living with Asperger's Syndrome?

Autism Spectrum Australia (Aspect) is seeking to investigate, the life experiences, aspirations and support needs of adults (aged 18 and over) with Asperger’s Syndrome (AS) and high functioning autism (HFA). We intend to use the findings of this research to raise awareness and present information to governments and service providers that will enable them to better understand and respond to the needs of this client group.



Data will be collected in three ways:
1) From adults with AS and HFA, via a questionnaire (available online or as a paper document).
2) From parents of adults with AS and HFA, via a questionnaire (available online or as a paper document).
3) From service providers across a range of sectors (e.g. health, higher education, employment), via telephone interviews.


If you would like to be involved, there are two ways:
1. Complete the questionnaire by following the link at the top of the Aspect home page: www.autismspectrum.org.au, OR
2. Contact Susanna Baldwin on sbaldwin@autismspectrum.org.au or (02) 8868 8510 for more information.
