    am i a goner?

    um dont forget that ur marks dont count for shit for now, only to establish ur rank and if 40 was physics average u cant be too far off, also dont stress about hsc since the hsc exams are so much easier. like the marks u get for hsc exams are not the marks u actually got in the hsc exam. eg...

    Potential for UAI above 90

    these school assesments dont really matter much from marks point of view, id rather know ur ranks in the subjects and how many % is your mark lower than the guy who came first. also how many % of people get 90+UAI in ur school? also i wouldnt count on IT too much from what i heard that...

    uai 90+

    u wont need much at all to get 90 with ur subjects, like a friend of mine got e2 (high60s or early70s) for 4 unit math, 83ish for adv english, 74 in physics, early 80s in ipt and got overall 88UAI do well in 4 unit maths and you will get 90 easily.

    i have lab for ELEC1011 tomorow and was just wondering what can i expect from someone who has done it already. What do they expect you to know and what can u do to maximise your marks for this, seems this report you must hand in is very important so any hints on how to write one really well...

    How was everyone's first day?

    i had 4h worth of lectures and i actually might enjoy maths for once, the 'jonathan' guy doing calculus MATH1131 was pretty good, the only shitty part was looking at that huge line for Studnet IDs, what time does that thing open tomorow? Oh and more thing, is it too late to join clubs and...

    Electrical Engineering/Science - 90 cutoff?

    hey there gman03, im doing exact same thing as you (elec eng/ science(plan on comp science), its seems the 90 thing is pointless really since we only needed 82 or so to get in, the catch is we must get 65% average to stay in the course, if we dont make that we must drop something. also what...

    Video Card HELP!!!

    yeh what sunny said, also that game is pretty recent isnt it, so maybe it needs that directX 9 to play the game and you just forgot to update this on your 2nd computer. But yeah i would also say the video cards drivers are not installed properly.

    Does UNSW have safe lockers?

    No way was i gonna use the actual laptop bag for this, its just still a bit of a risk on the trains, (well i just remember that thread on getting 'rolled' and it seemed quite common). Well i guess if i do get rolled i can always smash it on the guys head and get a new one on warranty, but...
