    The Coles Thread

    Been getting reduced hours since December :( I originally assumed it was because of competition for shifts with lower-paid school-age kids or whatever; however, I still sometimes get 0 shifts in a week. got 3 1/2 hours this week; then 10 next week including a 3-hr Sunday

    Your feelings towards internationals.

    International students can get into a course if they have reached the Guaranteed ENTER/UAI,etc. (rather than the clearly-in), in the same way that local students who are willing to pay full fee could. Using your logic, it would then be fair to say that local students who could pay full fee also...

    What is more attractive for a guy to be driving: manual or auto?

    Manual. That is, if it's a matter of life and death and I have to pick one. Otherwise, it doesn't really boil down to manual vs. auto, it's more on how the guy drives

    most effective horror movie

    I second that. I actually wanted the camera man to be killed first; that way, maybe the camera will steady a bit. That film was definitely effective in giving anyone vertigo.

    Architecture!!!

    You need more experience on the field for that job. And management skills too. I reckon that is not a job for newly graduated architects.

    freshman textbook question

    Right. The lecturer is just responsible for giving out the lectures - considering the number of students that's in a lecture at any one time, it's a waste of the lecturer's time to check if all students have books. Besides, this is not high school anymore, so students are expected to be...

    Bachelor of Environments?

    Well, considering that he has done bachelor degree/s before, he could get advance credits for the breadth component... so that instead of doing breadth in 1st year, he can do 2nd year subjects - may be 2nd year breadth, Environments elective or Major-related subject (which I doubt, since quite a...

    would you let someone borrow your book?

    depends on who the person is. at times, i extract a promise from the person first (that he/she will take care of my book, not fold the cover/any of the pages, will return it to me in one piece, etc.) before lending it.

    I recommend Creative Projects-Digital Technologies, it's under the Education faculty. Almost took it last year. Pretty hands-on, with all the activities on Multimedia. Why not take a language?

    Diploma in Maths

    well then, you can't take that particular Diploma Engineering already has a lot of Maths as it is, either separate ones (like Calculus and Linear Algebra - both of these are common to all Engg students) or integrated into Engineering subjects - I know this for a fact, since I tried to get an...
