    stupid shit you've done in class

    Back in Year 9 (or during my naughtier years), every class we had IST, I would do a prank of one of my mates. My computer station was placed near a connected Smartboard which that was connected to my friend's station not far from mine. So whenever somebody moves their finger around the board...

    UNSW Chit Chat Thread

    Re: UNSW Chit Chat Thread 2015. Provisional Semester 1 2016 class timetables are out. https://nss.cse.unsw.edu.au/tt/ Class locations might change, so be wary of that but in the past (2 semesters), I didn't had this problem.

    O week semester 2

    Not as big as O-Week in Semester 1, I went there last year and all the club stalls and activities were outside the CLB courtyard. There are freebies and food here and there, but not much.

    UNSW 2015 Sem 1 Results Thread

    Received mine: 7:12pm for z501XXXX. A bit disappointed with FINS1613 but got a reasonable mark/grade for it, I walked in with a ~ 36/50 so that makes sense.

    UNSW Subject Reviews.

    FINS1613: Business Finance Content and Ease: 6/10. Some concepts are fun and enjoyable (Financial Math/Valuation of Projects/CAPM/Risk and Return), some were alright (Capital Budgeting) and some were overly dry (Bonds and Equity/Cost of Capital). Lecturers: 9.5/10 for Robert Tumarkin...

    If I've studied from more from the four practice quizzes than the 2012 final exam, I probably would have done better.

    Apple WWDC 2015

    Gonna have to get use to the new native typeface in El Capitan. It's good to see improvement in performance to OS X like preview. Other than that its nothing too big. I watched the Keynote live this morning and how Federighi went over the split screen capabilities, my mind was like "man that...

    UNSW Sem 1 Final Exams Thread

    Soooo not confident with FINS1613, I admit this was a bad choice as a GenEd/Elective and should have chosen like Marketing or some COFA course instead. I assume I'm sitting somewhere around 35/50 before the final exam :/ Heavily relying on MyFinanceLab, Quiz solutions and the 2012 final exam as...

    Thoughts on wearing a white suit to formal?

    Yeah, not a fan of white suits either. "You'll look like a ghost" was what my friends said in high school if you worn a white suit. Other than that, just make sure you have nice shoes :D

    The UNSW Scaling Thread

    As far as I know, most Arts courses receive no scaling, just your raw mark. I did two courses last year from Arts and received no scaling at all. The lecturer that I had for one of the courses said that the school/faculty is moving to this approach since they want to 'standardise' their system a...
