    General Maths and Software Engineering?

    Really? I can't remember the last time I saw a university list a prerequisite for enrolment. Loads have assumed knowledge but that's not the same thing. Edit: Checked USYD and UNSW neither have prereqs. Not sure if prereqs are still an ACT thing.

    Testing times: selective schools and tiger parents

    Protip: They don't. Parents will do anything to get ahead though. When you boil it down, the market for tutoring is not driven by underachievement but an absence of confidence. If my own experience is anything to go by, the people who went to tutoring weren't incompetent, but they feared being...

    Why do we study English?

    Yes, the assumption is that the two go together. The sad thing is that higher education, especially in Year 11 and 12, is so marks-centric that it's encouraging incredibly risk-averse behaviour. It's that fear of being 'wrong' which is ironically stopping people from thinking independently...

    Writing someone elses name on an attendance sheet

    They won't notice handwriting. They may notice a missing face though. Academics are more observant than they may come across.

    USYD Chatter Thread

    Re: Semester 2 USYD Chatter Thread Some course coordinators tend to be really slow when setting up the blackboard sites. IIRC I've had instances where they've waited 2 weeks before getting everything sorted.

    USYD Chatter Thread

    And thus begins the second semester of the year, where the cold days slowly melt away and students can once again enjoy the sunny days out on the Quad. For some, this may be your last semester at USYD, while others are beginning to regroup after their first full semester at university...

    Portable battery chargers

    I'm definitely considering one. I use one of those Pocket WiFi modems at work and the battery life on the device is atrocious. Would be interested if it could work well with a MBA as well but considering that would be more thirsty, I figure that I would lose out on much of the portability.

    So what are you guys playing at the moment?

    Been mixing things up lately. Lately, I've played Lego Batman, Assassin's Creed, MTG DotP 2015, and GRID Autosport. Also started up saves for Dynasty Warriors NEXT and Samurai Warriors 4 for Vita.

    Challenging Psychometric Test Question

    Challenging Psychometric Test Question

    Hahah I think you're trying to a bit too clever here tbh. It's defeating the purpose of what the test is meant to measure.

    Challenging Psychometric Test Question

    The difference is that we know that there a FT and PT employees. This is a key assumption that the question gives us. We can assume that there are no other types because we are directed to only use the information included to make the judgement. Sure, you need more information to make a call...

    Challenging Psychometric Test Question

    Re: Confessions This is not what I said. What I said was that these questions are simulating a situation IRL where an employee won't have a complete picture when they make a decision. They have to make a decision based on the information that they do know. I'm talking about psychometric...
