    UTS Wireless + MSN Messenger?

    It did last I checked. From the linux computers, Pidgin will work for MSN, AIM, Yahoo, ICQ, GoogleTalk, IRC, SameTime, Zephyr, and pretty much any other major client. From the wireless, you should be able to access client-based WLM.

    UTS Wireless + MSN Messenger?

    If your way is the same way as my way, I doubt they can block all the possible IP addresses this "way" could use. On that note, you could also use your own implementation of said 'way' running from home (but then, that becomes too much effort just to talk to people). As IT students it's just...

    Doing 18 Credit Points this sem???

    UTS has summer classes for a number of subjects. IIRC, IT rarely (if ever?) has summer classes. Business, on the other hand, seems to have quite a few.

    Doing 18 Credit Points this sem???

    Yeah, 18cp is still considered full-time. Less than that, and you're considered part time. Only problem would be taking that 1 subject at the end of your course or having a loaded-semester of 32cp in one of the following semesters.

    HTML query!

    This usually requires some form of service that can process information (ASP code works particularly well). HTML will not handle the processing of user input. However, if you're new to HTML, it probably means you're new to most of these coding languages, which could be problematic. As zvyx...

    Insane work load

    Yeah, but that's not entirely the same thing. The essay section of economics is an exam in its own right.

    Insane work load

    Nup. Not officially, anyway. Sometimes they'll drop hints, like "you should really remember this" and in the last lecture of accounting last year (one of the only two lectures I went to) he pretty much said "make sure you know xyz" and essentially told us what topics we should know in detail...

    Past Exam Papers

    Just a little tip for the road; You don't have to do all that reading for MPO. A lot of it is common knowledge, and even more is covered in lectures/tutorials (maybe not so much tutorials). If you think "pff, I already know this", just skip the reading and focus on what you don't know. While I...

    Insane work load

    While I'll agree to a moderate extent, 12 hours face-to-face means very little. That's what UTS has deemed the appropriate amount needed for a lecturer/tutor to 'guide' you. A student in, say, MedSci spends double that on campus, but a lot of it is spent doing lab work. Business students aren't...

    Past Exam Papers

    YOU ARE HERE: NSW / ACT > University of Technology, Sydney > Faculty of Business & Law Yes, it is for uni, hence that "University of Technology" label. OP: Some people smuggle out exam papers. It's difficult to say whether or not they're the same each year, unless somebody fails the subject...

    Insane work load

    It may not be just demand, but demand does play a big part. If all of a sudden the legal industry was not such an illustrious field, that sucker would drop way down the charts. Law = money, people like money. Look at business. I studied one week out of fourteen for, say, accounting, never turned...

    Notes

    Did a year of business-- no law, but I'll give my 2¢. There is no real "syllabus". More of an... unstructured subject overview. The closest you'll get for each topic is the lecture slides. Take each point and squeeze as much out of it from the textbook as you can. If you watch a movie take notes...

    Last day when I can change my timetable

    I'd assume that it means the end of second week, but you'd do best to change them as soon as you can. I know that most of my classes are already full anyway, so you might find your options extremely limited.

    What you hate about UTS

    or rent that spare room you have in your flat.

    J2EE Subjects???

    It's likely you'll have to take the entire Master of Science in Internetworking in order to take that subject (considering it has a prerequisite and is referenced as "availability: Internetworking program students only"), which may seem like a waste of time if you're only looking to do one...

    Insane work load

    Wecome to university! Group work is the best, because not only do you have a shitload to do, you have to coordinate and work around the timetables of all the other group members (which may mean coming in on a day you weren't scheduled to come in-- or staying late). But for reals, if you think...

    J2EE Subjects???

    I know for a fact that one subject in the BScIT course covers JME, but I don't think any (even in the heavily-programming based stream) cover J2EE. However, there is a short course called Java Programming Advanced that focuses on J2EE specifically, which I suppose is what you'd be looking for.

    Communication for IT Professionals Diagnostic Testing

    What I did last year... could be different, but unlikely: You read a short article, then write a summary on what you had learned. It's basically a "I know how to summarise ideas" test. If your English is poor, or you had a hard time comprehending the article, you'll be put in a slower-moving...

    IT email problems?
