how much in total do you usually get to pay? 50 bucks over how many hour? imo whoever paid 50 bucks/hr is losing a lot from that and from the educational point of view..

you weren't the only one: http://www.boredofstudies.org/community/showthread.php?t=61392 hope that relieves your heart attack ;) i'm having one for a completely different reason atm..

academic misconduct! blasphemy! If it's someone from the same course, then wouldn't it be bad because of higher chance being detected for plagiarism? And if its someone not doing your course, wouldnt it be bad since that someone might not know what your course is about? of course, its...

I remember getting matriculation last year too, and there was a page somewhere in myunsw that explained what "matriculation" meant. I wasnt' the only one as well, too, so you guys shouldn't worry too much IMO. If worryness persists, just spam unsw with your phone calls ;)

Hrmm.. strange.. no CBG people approached me today. I have a feeling I dont look innocent enough.. any hints on the looks of "potential follower" ? Maybe I was just late :/ For the record I myself hasnt done the apple trick... and damn where was the kendo stall? And yes, this whole church...

scenario: *christian group guy chases you like hell* cgg : Hey there, what's up? me : Hi.. cgg : what's your name? *me pulls out a red apple, and quickly take a bite* me : Adam.. *me enjoys the look at the cgg's face* Of course, this did not happen, but I'm planning to do...

uhh.. if you wanna do computing you should at least do computing 1A methinks.. or even attempt 1711 at the least. No intro to computing like 1A = nothing much learned about basic programming practices..

Is this union fee the same thing as that student fee thingy? If so, then you dont' want your uni marks?

Just get any with "discrete" on it from the library, even the old ones. What you need is the lecture notes (purely in the interest of knowing the required topic), and a discrete textbook which covers them topics. Just beat the rush and borrow them from the library. You'll need explanation...

Borrow the discrete textbook from the library. There's only some, but it really helps, especially if you're the timid type and are too afraid to ask from tutors.. let alone the lecturers. Other than that, get the textbook and do the past paper, since they give worked solutions. It wasn't hard...

I reckon you should just get discrete over and done with. It's only hard if you follow the lectures without actually borrowing a real(tm) discrete mathematics book from the library. And doing the past papers of course. btw do good, if a friend of mine gets 90+ in discrete this session, i'll...

Some combined student gets to do some 1st year subject in 2nd year anyways. first year girls from accounting! first year girls from accounting!

pfft it's called "using (lecture) time wisely" :D

It's true because you can always make sure you know what you need to know from the question booklet. The lecture last time (John Steele + Jie Du), was boring to me. I lost interest in a very short time period, and eventually I was just either perving around looking at other students, or...

Ah man, it's a sin, an utter sin to miss 1711 lectures. People who do are known to be chased around by 1711 lecture attendants, and are crucified in front of the public when found. Well I guess you'll have to compromise.. but ask anyone else that did 1711. I'm pretty sure the response is...

I suggest you don't miss the 1711. Miss on psyc instead. Trust me.

Some lecturers are good, some are bad. Some are just repeats of books, some aren't. Some people are able to learn from lectures, some can't. You should go and experiment how lectures are with an open mind first. I know some people will recommend against this, but for the record, attending...

how much $$$ are they really using btw? If a lot, then in order to make the most out of the union fees I shall become christian temporarily everytime there's a barbeque by these christians ;)

At higher comp, the assignments are harder, you learn at a different pace from the normal computing class. They scale the mark so it doesn't matter which stream you take (higher/lower), the mark you get from both if you spend the same amount of work would be the same. The upside of 1711 is...

Choose higher, then if you find it too hard, drop down. It's recommended you experience the higher comp's lecturer. It doesnt get better than that for the rest of the compsci subjects at uni i heard..
