    tips and ways to study engineering?

    The syllabus is not clear cut. It's a very difficult subject in terms of knowing what to study. I've been learning how things work and building stuff since I was a kid. The weird thing is a lot of it is sort of general engineering knowledge which you don't seem to be explicitly taught. I ended...

    What's a workshop?

    Generally just a term used to set it aside in one way from other tutorials. For example, at UQ Engineering has compulsory tutorials but optional tech-drawing workshops.

    Am I the only liberal at uni?

    No, liberal means left wing, you had it right. Labor Party: Liberal (centre-left) Liberal Party: Conservative (centre-right) - Originally called "liberal" because they consider themselves to be economic libertarians. In your BOS profile, for example, if you put "conservative" you would...

    engineering

    I believe he was taking the piss. Then again, I have spoken to people that go to Southern Cross, Charles Sturt, UNE, etc and some of them come up with all sorts of "reasons" why they are better than UNSW, USYD, MIT, Harvard and Yale. What would "Engineering Technology" do for you anyway? You...

    What languages do you know?

    Tried to learn Java, then Python. Then tried to learn Objective C and Cocoa. I don't think I have the attention span to do it. Seems impossible to memorise everything. public static void main(String[] args)

    Do we need to draw title pages for each subject at uni?

    Unless those people are also not serious and are laughing at US. :eek:

    Explanation of HSC Marks (Moderating)

    Uh lol, they are heaps higher for MX2. It aligns up nicely. Namu is right.

    Eng. St HSC textbook!

    It's basically a case of the syllabus is poorly written and ambiguous, so no resource can cover the whole thing.

    Eng. St HSC textbook!

    I used Copeland for learning stuff, then HSC online and How Stuff Works, Wikipedia as supplements. For class assessments, I used the Excel book to revise. For trials I used Copeland, summarised the whole thing and did questions. Then for the real HSC I did past papers + revised Excel book. Got...

    What was your top/worst subject?

    Unless her name is Anna, she did not top PE. Interestingly, the highest aligned mark was also 99.

    Dux

    Nice work dude. That's like 10 points higher than usual. Any better and the school might reach median UAI. :D

    Clerical Recheck- Chance of Worse Mark??

    My physics was lower than expected. I was estimated to get 95 and got 91. I don't think it aligned as well this year as in the past - maybe BOS saw it as an "easier" paper.

    19th December is arse-looking photocopy folded and shoved in a standard 55c envelope. Mid January is formal shiny looking fancy one.

    ALL NIGHTERS ON TUESDAY thread

    Mac users out there should download "Coversation". Pretty good and free. For Windows there's probably a thousand completely free ones.

    Do schools get your HSC mark before you do?

    I heard 7AM to Principals.
  19. I

    whats the first thing u'll do after you...

    I think ≤30 would be preferable to 31, etc. I mean, either way you are dumb, but at least ≤30 gets you a free drink. :p
