maybe the extra stream closed due to not much demand for places in the course?
otherwise ask the faculty/course coordinator.
I checked again this morning, and both streams were full. I guess it just took a while to show up on the timetable site.

please explain

law is for faggots
I tell my gf this everyday. :hammer:

Why does a shit subject like law have such an awesome building?
The building is shite. So dull and uncomfortable, and looks like there's some blades stuck to the sides. I had law at electrical engineering once, awesome room, so bright and cheery, but no, they have to cancel the class after 1 week. :angry:


Go on. Pretty sure no such degree as Midwifery exists at UNSW so I'm assuming you're still doing law.
And last I heard, he was doing well in it too.

That building is major architectural fail.

The pretty colours and kooky angles disguise the fact that its design makes poor use of space and encourages crowd bottlenecks.

And wtf is up with that "oh look, we've got some money left in the budget - let's wipe our arses with it" escalator? -.-

asb: like the students that will graduate from there - dull, cold, sterile and the same thing over and over and over again
red centre: a mess on the outside, unfinished inside
quad: made for tall people, high ceilings

I normally use the booths on level 4, right above the two computer labs.

Electrical Engineering Lifts scared the living daylights out of me the other day. Every time I have to go up 3 levels, I'll be walking instead. Lifts which require manual opening of doors? No TYVM.

The main ones break down on a two-week cycle and the rickety old one on the other side of the building is a death-wish. Sticking to the stairs is a good move.

But in defence of the elec eng building, its hallways have a certain rustic, communist charm to them, especially on the lower floors. A little Mao-chic, y'know? :)

ee lifts are... faulty. not working properly last time i checked.

mech eng lifts are sometimes scary.

course coordinator, talk to them in person, prove/give them good enough reason why u need to enrol into that particular tutorial (if there are other streams), then you may get in.

if there's only 1 tute, then they might increase the class size depending on demand, email or/and see them in person.
