Depends. Sometimes it will just be given because you're only a few points off passing. I think 45-46 is the limit though. Anything below that and you fail. Otherwise, some courses may have it that if you fail one subject but your other marks for your other courses are all considerably...

For some courses, exams are actually held on campus. My first exam tomorrow is at the Scientia but I've also done exams in the Squarehouse too. It just depends on the arrangements made and the size of your cohort. Big courses will usually mean you're at the racecourse. Infact, it's quite...

I'm writing some blog entries for Gamespot AU so if you've got some free time on your hands, give what I thought of the Microsoft Press Conference at E3 2010 a read. Also, if you're on Gamespot AU too, then comments are appreciated. :chainsaw: tallkid123's Blog: Microsoft Conference E3 2010...

5 winners and less than 10 people entered. One of the easiest competitions I ever won. Also, the Kratos console comp still hasn't been decided yet (found out today on au.playstation.com) so keep your fingers crossed.

Readers' Choice Most Anticipated Games of E3 It could be any 3 games from that list. Depends on vote count, I think. I just need to do a bit of blogging and then I'll get them!

I got a Lost Planet 2 tshirt, tickets to Legion, Zombieland Blu-ray and 3 of the Most Anticipated Video Games from E3 (off gamespot AU). And yeah, your answer for that comp was painfully generic and unimaginative. I may as well be blunt here for reasons of constructive criticism if you plan on...

Yes, but I'm a full-fee paying student and this was about 2 years ago so it's irrelevant now.

Occasionally, you get random uni students who come across these forums because they're stuck with a course and need some info/help (as they probably don't know anyone else doing that course). You're probably not used to randoms pm you for help by the looks of your post. Oh and Omie Jay, I...

Haha. Econ growth can kiss my ass. I only need 15% or so to pass. It's just eco of fins I'm worried about.

Seriously could not be fucked studying... And first exam is on thursday..

The worst courses in the financial economics major are probably business forecasting, financial econometrics and economics of finance. Neither of them are particularly easy and all of them can be quite vague and hard to grasp.

Depends on your major. If you're planning on doing something like econometrics or financial economics, then expect a lot of statistics to keep you busy. If not, then it'll just be a lot of graphs and economic essays/extended responses. 1st year is standard micro/macro/statistics/calculus +...

Fucking brilliant... Lucky college kids getting to run around in all that water like no one's business. I remember the Village Green used to be a basin or something before becoming a field.

I saw the world premiere about 2 or so weeks ago. It was alright. Stupid dialogue but it kept me entertained. Immediately after movie, the audience was treated to a Q&A session with cast & directors where they answered the question I asked. They looked at each other trying to figure...

+1 Refer to said post - http://community.boredofstudies.org/589/general-university-new-south-wales/107939/general-unsw-chit-chat/388.html#post4988461 I tell my gf this everyday. :hammer: And last I heard, he was doing well in it too.
