Re: The UTS 'Get Naked and Secks' Thread
I wouldnt promote the 100% final. That is why I wanted to do the mid sem but I was sick, so I just did the 100% final.
I thought the final questions were easier as they didnt promote rote learning.
I spoke to a bloke in the semester after...
Re: The UTS 'Get Naked and Secks' Thread
28/40 is really good for Accounting for Business mid sem.
If 30+ % fail, high credit is a good mark.
Remember they pick the option that you best score in.
For many, it is the final exam option. The other 2 options help as some insurance though...
It is very challenging. I like concepts and the like so HRM was a perfect fit.
Dont do a major because people recommend it. Do it because you like it and are good at it.
Remember what you major in is the area of business you will work in for the rest of your life. Would be foolish to pick...
Re: The UTS 'Get Naked and Secks' Thread
I personally on the whole prefer class marks. It is usually good to make up the couple of marks which mean the difference between a C or a D.
I really think class marks are only as good as the teachers understanding of participation. I was told...
Re: The UTS 'Get Naked and Secks' Thread
How can you do an extra assessment instead of a class mark?
Just curious. If there is a reason you cant disclose, thats fine.
Sometimes, I would prefer no class mark,
I reckon it is a bit offensive when people claim majors are easy.
I reckon all majors are of equal difficulty. Obviously the strengths of the individual will help in choosing the major.
Furthermore, choose what interests you.
I loved Corporate Strategy in Semester 2 of Year 1, so I...

Krayzie....
Jon Tyler said in one of his lectures that you are able to take whichever mark is higher out of the 3 options.
Effectively, for many people he said they received the mark they got in the 100% final.
Its a high fail rate but...
Re: Final Examination Timetable (Aut 08) Provisional - OUT!
First year Business was the best.
All 4 exams within a week. So you get 7 weeks holidays.
Its good because the stress period is confined to one week too.
Good luck with your exams!
I have a take home due on the 12th, a...
The above two posters gave great info.
I'll just add.
If you want the IT subjects to count, you could always do this:
Major
Sub Major
24CP of electives
When I was at UTS (and I will be back next sem), I did HRM major, Foundations of Law and was going to do 24CP of law electives...
I have to finish this Constit. assignment and then write up a Constit. presentation.
The only problem is that Iain hasnt put up the tutorial readings for what the presentation is on. I could read the chapter but I am not reading any more than I have too.
You dont get spoon fed anything at uni.
Usually I try and use the lecture notes given on WebCT but not all subjects offer lecture notes or ones that are detailed enough.
I only make notes for sit down exams. Take homes I just use the textbook etc.
Another practice that you may find...
I think the main thing is that you actually do a Law degree. Thats what matters the most.
I think on the most part, employers aren't really overly focused upon where you obtain your law degree from. They want to see a good all round person who will be an asset to them. People skills are very...
I can try and answer the law part.
The 10CP really make no difference. In law, there are mandatory core areas that each degree must teach known as the Priestley 11,such as Contracts, Torts, Property Law etc. Each degree will teach these areas although in different depth and with different...
If the sole reason you want to help out at a community legal centre is to pad out a resume, then I advise you not to worry about doing it at all.
I know this is pretty blunt but consider the real reasons as to why you would want to do volunteer work with the CLC's. Some of them should be...
