    PSY104 and STAT170?! help please!!

    You can do stat170 either semester or for the whole year. STAT170 is not a prerequisite for psy105 it is a corequisite. "A corequisite is a unit of study, which has to be completed prior to or concurrently with another" In psy105 you will learn about writing psych reports & you will write...

    Does PSY104 have in-lecture tests?

    http://www.psy.mq.edu.au/units/u_outline/PSY104outline.pdf This is a unit outline for psy104 could be last year or could be this years. But there isnt an inclass test listed. So it is not likely there will be one during a lecture & if there was one & you are registered for the late lecture...

    what should i do if my lecture units are full?

    Chillax!!! You can try telling the lecturer if it makes you feel better but dont be surprised if a tonne of people are saying the same thing and there isnt time.. The lecturer will probably say something during the lecture if everyone has the same problem. If he/she doesnt, it is probably best...

    what should i do if my lecture units are full?

    Go to the morning one if thats what you want to do..it will probably be packed for the first few times, so go early.Numbers dwindle pretty quickly Depending on the unit, often the first lecture or tute you will get your unit guide.This is important to have.But you can get one from the...

    Lateness to lectures, HELP

    You can be late to lectures ..noone says anything (although I did have one lecturer who would get very upset about it but she was visiting from une & the only one in 2 years of uni to get bothered by it) Try not to be late to tutorials because usually you have a minimum to attend & sometimes...

    what should i do if my lecture units are full?

    Are you saying that you dont have a spot in the lectures or tutorials? The lecturers arent going to know who you are anyway and you should pick a tutorial time, that is the person that will "know" you.Assignments go in a box & find their way back to you via the tutor. In 2 years at MQ I havent...

    Phil137 Critical Thinking Psychology Module

    thanks Cyan I sort of suck at writing psych reports & essays. I dont really have an opinion on things, I tend to go along with the experts if that makes sense? Im quite good at memorising & regurgitating facts. I am hoping that phil137 will help me look at things more analytically.. Did it help...

    Whats the point with stat170

    The point of Stat170 (now that I've thought about it more) is ultimately to learn how to test if a result is significant within a population. I dont study environmental science but Im just guessing.Say that a percentage of fish are dead in a lake . You may need to know whether or not this is...

    What happens during practicals?

    STAT170 pracs if I can remember where spent using the statistical package (mostly on spreadsheets) to work through problems. Usually you are given a data set of some sort of study & you learn how to manipulate the data & find some meaning in the numbers

    Phil137 Critical Thinking Psychology Module

    ok I dropped out of Phil137 last year because I am not a logical thinker. Unfortunately I actually need to be able to think critically, so I thought I would take another crack at it. There is a psychology module as part of this unit, has anyone done that module? Or knows how the psychology...

    Whats the point with stat170

    I suppose it depends what degree you do. For psychology based units it is invaluable because you are expected to know how studies were performed,to calculate your own statistics in studies and to critique other studies..

    STAT 170 - Semester 1 or 2

    I did Stat170 full year because I suck at anything mathematical. The last 2 years Ive been at Macquarie I have got some sort of horrible cold/virus second semester, so this year Im going to do a heavier load 1st semester. That's my theory on picking semesters..
