You'll inevitably run into some sort of maths, if not directly in a MATH subject, then indirectly in algorithms and other computational theory. In my computing subjects (@ unsw), its reaching a point where the maths in it is comparable in difficulty to actual 3rd year math subjects. Afaik, at...

That might not be a good idea, by the time i get through all my jokes you might want to kill me :o

yahh im lucky i caught an earlier train and got to central around 8, arrived at uni at 9 on the dot

Sounds like their parties would go off. On a serious note, i'd probably join if there actually were a proper mathsoc with a decent amount of members (assuming we're not automatically part of it by doing maths).

Oh I see. Still, wouldve been nice to have an assessment where i didnt just barely pass

What what, you guys get assignments in 2111? Totally not fair :(

I seeeeeee. I may be there. But then again, i may not be <_<

Hey implicity, are you taking higher complex next semester?

The stalls have come down. The true face of uni is about to appear. Welcome to Hell.

Heh, i was meant to finish at 6 today, glad to see my decision to leave at 1 paid off

Lectures are allocated for a reason. If everyone turned up to the favourable lecture, or randoms who dont even do the subject come, it'll turn out like last year where the lecture becomes too full and the lecturer just stops allowing any more people from entering the room - meaning people who...

hardly any queue at around 9:10-9:20 today

Webct isnt ready yet, and probably wont be working completely until well into the first week - maybe later if the lecturer is lazy. Don't stress. If it's still not working when uni starts, alert the lecturer inside the lecture

Science/cse will let you overload as much as you want with permission. They approved of 33 uoc for me.

I see. Thanks, guess its worth a shot to try make a good impression. If only maths offered something like this :(

Ok, but does getting chosen mean you have to do some sort of working for them (either during uni or afterwards)?

Hey guys, so I logged into my cse email account and saw that i've been apparently short listed for some CISRA Award thing (seems like 13 people are in the running). I'm a little skeptical about it. Firstly they require an interview with CISRA representatives, and secondly they want my resume...

Musk, most people without prior computing knowledge do COMP1911 fine. It just requires effort, but its definitely not a subject that requires you to be a hardcore programmer. Even better Flaming Ninja seems to be dedicated to it, which imo is much better than having prior knowledge and not...

Erm 12gb is easy to do in a day. A 3-4 gb movie on the torrent site I use can download within an hour or two.

If the books are course packs with readers/tutorials you're probably safe in buying them before lectures start. I've bought many actual textbooks which are still brand new as i've never touched them, even though they were 'prescribed'. Quite often you'll find even the prescribed ones are optional.
