    UNSW Exams in a Marquee??

    Anyone know where we can store notes & textbooks for the duration of the exam? I know we can't take them inside the marquee and I don't think leaving them outside is a good idea. Any ideas? Would like to take textbook with me on the train & bus commuting to the exam.

    UNSW Exams in a Marquee??

    Thanks for all the replies everyone. It's always good to have some idea of what to expect when you rock up to your first uni exam. Helps calm the nerves. If anyone has anything to add, please do.

    UNSW Exams in a Marquee??

    Oh great...I'd imagine that it'd be noisy, cold, and perhaps even wet O__O. Don't marquees just use the grass as the floor, and so if it rains, it'd be smelly and wet? :o

    Extension essays (help!)

    So sorry I didn't read this thread earlier! Extension essays are different to advanced English essays, so don't believe they are the same. Conceptual statements briefly set the scene for our essay; you need to tell us a bit about the history of utopia/dystopia literature and what about it you...

    Actuarial Studies

    That was somewhat helpful. Thanks. I knew there would be a lot of maths, but I thought we'd be learning maths in the context of actuarial studies, which could be applied to real life situations. Maybe it's too early for that yet.

    Actuarial Studies

    So it's Enrolment Time for Semester 2!! I'm in first year, completing MATH1151 as one of my courses. I'm finding it to be just a math course, with nothing to do with actuarial studies (or is this it? O___o) Quite disappointing. So I'm wondering whether to continue to pursue actuarial studies...

    Frankenstein/BladeRunner

    Re: Blade Runner + Frankenstein Intro & Conclusion The first three lines are all very nice about values, but unless the question is explicitly asking 'What are values' (which is HIGHLY unlikely - you are more likely required to integrate an understanding of values in your discussion), then...

    Values in FrankenBlade.

    In Shelley's Romanticist era, the value upheld by the people was the natural order, that God was all powerful; very Christian context. Hence Victor Frankenstein was irresponsible in unleashing his creation which defied this natural order. In Scott's 1980s America, the value upheld by the...

    What essay do I write on Gwen Harwood?? *Confused.

    In short, yes. A good way to demonstrate textual integrity is to refer to her poems. So in your paragraph on Poem 2, you might want to have a line or two which says something along the lines of "This idea of ___ is also explored in Harwood's <poem 1>." The main aim of textual integrity in the...

    What essay do I write on Gwen Harwood?? *Confused.

    Textual integrity refers to how all the poems fit in together/ideas flow from one poem to another. So you can perhaps talk about a theme which pervades through several of her poems.

    essay body paragraphs

    I would suggest starting with your prescribed text all the time in the Advanced English course. It is nice to interweave one or two sentences into your paragraphs which relate to other texts you have studied/have mentioned in the essay. Don't fret too much about this now; as you write more...
