    Can you fail ENGG1000? No, seriously? *worried*

    Thank you for the reply, I did well in stage 1 (got 98), but stage 2.. I screwed up pretty badly (got 73), if I try really hard on the last stage, would that be okay? Thanks for the suggestion, I'll try that. Do you know how much can the mark be scaled down? The group mark still worth 60% so if...

    Can you fail ENGG1000? No, seriously? *worried*

    Hi everyone, I'm currently really really really worried that I might fail ENGG1000. My group is doing great, but sadly, without much of my contribution (if at all). Basically there are some really smart people in the group, so I'm not that useful to them. Now, the assessment for this course...

    UNSW Myths, Fables and Stories.

    Today, when I was in a toilet in the Quad building, I heard a faint sound of a switch and suddenly all the lights went off, it was complete darkness! (yeah I'm afraid of the dark so what!) when I finally got out, I tried all the switches I could see but none of them worked! What was that sound...

    What you hate about UNSW

    Speaking of stairs, don't forget the lifts guys! Each and everyone of them feels like they are going to just drop and break and kill us all any minute....... Not that there are many lifts......

    first day worst day

    If it makes you feel better, I'm even worse than you...Being an international student means 'do it or die' for me :haha: The first 3 days were major sh*t but it got better (gradually....) so don't worry! So many ppl have made it through before us so why can't we, right?

    Maths intro into Maple

    I missed mine yesterday too, and I was too pissed to go another day, so I just went to the lab straight away. Turned out it's no big deal, just log in to WebCT and read the guide there, it's fairly straightforward.

    CSE Camp 2009

    Oh, so do you know how long we will be staying? it says Fri-Sun, but does that mean we left on Friday afternoon and came back on Sunday night? I would appreciate a bit of free time on Sunday, since my Monday is pretty busy...And I've never been on a camp before (seriously...) so is it alright?

    What you hate about UNSW

    Doing what you like definitely worth it^^ Anyway, the immigration woman that came to UNSW on Oweek said there's a bridging viasa that allows ppl with Australian uni degrees to stay in Australia looking for a job, maybe you could switch to it until next semester? Or you could try doing another...

    Bored of Studies UNSW Rollcall 2009

    first time I heard that, everyone says the opposite... I got an offer for BIT @ USYD (cut-off this year was something like 95, I think) but decided to go for CompSci @ UNSW. That says all, right?

    What you hate about UNSW

    They will let you apply, though you might have to pay a late application fee, some of my friends applied very late last year to USYD. If it can't be done, don't get worked up about it...you don't need uni to do creative works, right :o

    What you hate about UNSW

    Chill, chill, I'm an international student too, and I think we have the right to ask the uni make another offer on another course, or you could always change school, it's quick and easy. I came here from usyd.

    ARC covers sports clubs as well?

    I get what you mean, but the way you said it made it sound like just another advertisement (wouldn't impress anyone) I'll consider joining, though.
