10 reasons why you like/dislike uni (2 Viewers)

[Riviet]

- in general.

Up to 10 for each of likes and dislikes (for you lazy people who have exams to study for and what not )

 

[Nakashima]

Lol I reckon.

I'll give you two for each.

Good: you don't have to study during holidays because there's nothing to study, and you can jig lectures.

Bad: I actually can't think of anything right now.

This rule doesn't apply to B/Commerce.

I need to write a:
3000 word essay
1200 word essay
Presentation
Bibliography Assignment
prepare for ECON test

All this by Wednesday, next week.

 

[what971]

nah.

 

[what971]

Somebody at CQU is paying me $100 for it.

:/

OK, so I guess I don't get to complain about that one.

No no, I meant the REAL holidays, i.e. after exams.

Next week is just a break. I have tons to do too but I'm really sick of studying.

Hopefully, would be able to go overseas again this summer as well, if I can convince my parents to part with money.

Dislikes:

[Bendent]

And those overly passionate protesters outside Fisher that are always rallying against racism. Omg just give up.

 

[Captain Gh3y]

Likes:
- Being able to come and go as I please (no razor wire like school)
- Course material that I'm pretty awesome at
- The Medieval Re-enactment society

Dislikes:
- Lack of socialists attacking me with flyers, wish I went to a uni with more, umm, politically active, students.
- Hugely irrelevant course materials
- 9am starts when I have to catch the bus
- Noisy people who seem to resent "having" to go to lectures
- Courses with exams worth less than 75% (what's the point in having an exam then?)

 

[withoutaface]

Good: you don't have to study during holidays because there's nothing to study, and you can jig lectures.

That's cause you're a first year.

EDIT: Like:
- Challenging subjects.
- Right wing student politicians.
Dislike:
- Elliptic functions.
- Group theory.
- Communists.

 

[Anonymou5]

Dislike:
- Student politics (but don't really care if I'm not interupted when I'm in the middle of something important)
- Difficulty of thermodynamics lab reports, with exams at least sometimes you can fudge but reports it just doesn't work
- Bad exam timetables (when I get unfavourable ones)
- People who don't stfu during lectures
- Needing to think in tutorials...would prefer to be given the answer haha
- Assignments which take too much time and thought to complete

Like:
- High grades (unfortunately they've been far and few between :\ )
- Attendance isn't compulsory in most of my classes, although I rarely miss classes
- Don't need to turn up on time

That's about it for now.

Some how I can't stop laughing at your reasons.
Asians would be in my dislike category. Don't get me wrong, it's just that I hate this generation of asians who were raised by greedy communists.
Hey why no black people? Are you talking about curries or africans?

- sexy technology stuff, sound recording, pro-tools, GRM tools, DVD multimedia stuff
- celebrity-like teachers who have made a name for themselves and getting taught by them
- sexy uni architecture
- lack of uniform... (i know its trivial but uni feels so much more comfortable compared to school for this reason i feel)

- satirical con-non-christian group that puts flyers everywhere with witty remarks but does not actually exist


Dislikes

- breeds freaks and geeks of the muso world, mostly socially incapable etc
- shitty subjects such as aural perception (they play you something, you write what it is)
- lack of practice rooms
- shitty library times
- understaffed
- subjects that have no purpose whatsoever in music or in life but needed to finish degree
- $500 usyd fees that I seem to get no benefit from except a con christian group (no) and discounts on over priced food.
- attendance is compulsary, unlike other uni's
- con christian group
- kids who wear "I love Jesus" t-shirts, no kidding

 

[lala2]

^^Yep, EU is annoying as anything. At least I don't see the other Christian groups shoving "We Love Jesus!" in our faces. Geez.
