    Is O-Week useful?

    It's fun to first years but not that useful. You can go to the faculty welcomes if you want but they last for a few hours and most people don't stick around that long. O-week is a good time to meet others and make friends but if you dont go, you'll get lots of chances once your first week of...

    Timetabling at UNSW

    Depends to be honest. I don't do law so I don't have any first-hand info for your assignments. However, I know that most of your law assignments will be essays that will all be due on the exact same date. Its stuff like presentations and maybe small tutorial quizes/exams that vary for everyone.

    Timetabling at UNSW

    I dont do your degree but here is my input anyway. Make your timetable as soon as possible. I can't tell you how pissed my gf gets when she doesnt get her law classes because her appointment was set later than others or that the class she wanted was specifically reserved for post-grad students...

    Enrolment @ unsw

    Re: 回复: Enrolment @ unsw I concur. If you were at USYD, the university would automatically make you a timetable and you'd have to go in person if you wanted to change it (which a fair number of students then try and do). You do however have to go pick up your own student ID at UNSW...

    girls @unsw commerce

    Appreciate it, Helen. I just hope some of these first years don't get their hopes too high when they get here. Here's another question; How would you approach girls at our university? 1) As a gentleman 2) With a translator 3) With money 1 Hong Kong dollar = 0.182824146 Australian...

    The Official PS3 vs. Xbox 360 Thread

    Plus Portable Ops and the old MG series on SNES. I have to admit, they better have some more decent games come out on ps3 soon... I'm starting to use my xbox 360 alot more because it has a wider range of games that are actually worth playing. Apparently, FFXIII is coming out on both consoles...

    general UNSW chit-chat

    It's an amazing game with such beautiful graphics. There was still one available at Roselands EB (probably because the only people down there are lebs and the elderly). They keep it in the back as well so you've gotta ask for it because most stores only have one copy at a time. Check out the...

    are general education modules offered in the summer schools ??

    Yes, geneds are allowed in summer and thats when a lot of people do them. Most students don't do any geneds until their second year in order to get their core courses out of the way first. Another restriction is that you can only do up to 6UOC of courses from each faculty in regards to...

    general UNSW chit-chat

    Thanks for the info Forbidden but I'll pass. I might not even mod it at all. I barely touch my psp because i have too many other consoles to deal with. Btw, mission complete, I managed to snare myself a copy of Valkyria Chronicles.

    actuarial studies major + pther major?

    What you're referring to is overloading and for your case, they wont allow you to overload as a first year student. Only final year students (i think penultimate year students too...) with decent marks get permission to overload so its not an option for you just yet. You can just do econ1203...

    general UNSW chit-chat

    Re: 回复: Re: general UNSW chit-chat Chillaxing really. I've been video game collecting over the past couple of weeks. If all goes to plan, I might get my hands on a rare, elusive local version of Valkyria Chronicles for ps3 today. Otherwise, I'll be attempting to hack my psp or finally...

    UTS Business Vs. UNSW Commerce

    Trust me, there are heaps of interesting ones available elsewhere. I've done a sexual education one (its not like sex ed or watching porn but in one of my tutes, the tutor put up a slide with every possible word for penis and vagina imaginable to discuss). I already figured you were a cadet...

    UTS Business Vs. UNSW Commerce

    The asians/international students are unavoidable wherever you go. If you're not stuck doing groupwork with them, there not that much of a problem to begin with. You're correct in that our university has a lot of maths. I hate it too (I failed first year maths for a start) but I accept it...

    B Engineering / B Arts

    I think you know better than anyone what you want to do. Eng/arts can do you no wrong. The best degrees/combined degrees in my opinion are the ones that combine enjoyability and employability. Eng/com is also a great combination to do at university. Don't even bother with eng/law. It's a...

    girls @unsw commerce

    I prefer vaginafest to sausagefest but if you like a bit of sausage, who am I to discriminate? 2 sausages in the same bun never killed anyone. hahaha:spin:

    actuarial studies major + pther major?

    Look, if you drop out of actuarial first year, then you have to do econ1203. Econ1202 is probably a somewhat easier version of your first year actuarial maths course so there is no need to have to go back and do an easier version of what you've already passed. Econ1203 is completely...

    Engineering = Sausagefest, not necessarily Ugly Vaginafest

    girls @unsw commerce

    I speak from experience btw... I managed to attract one of those pretty Asian com/law girls and we've been together for nearly a year so I'm probably not doin anything wrong so far.
