    1st day of uni...

    I think I remember you mentioning it on a thread about notes vs laptops. Don't worry, I'm not stalking you. :)

    +1 Are you still doing Philosophy? If so we might see each other in the lectures. :)

    Annoying UNSW websites...

    Both these websites work for me fine. In my opinion, it's either a problem with your login/unipass/zpass, or an issue with your computer or settings. Have you tried clearing your browser cache and attempting to log in again? What about trying to log in to Blackboard or accessing IDM on a...

    Textbooks:Uni Book Store or Amazon?

    I just saved $30 on law textbooks using Booko and Fishpond. Thank you. :)

    English is a waste of life.

    It's really not like that. For the essays in Paper 2 you have to have make a personal interpretation of the texts in order to access to the higher bands. Relaying superficial knowledge of the texts, or interpretations that half the state will already be aware of will not get you very far.

    Full time Uni student and I can't get travel concession...?

    I completely agree. There should be travel concession for any full-time student, regardless of employment. The system is also flawed in its reasoning for these limits to concession; many people who are employed and full-time students are supporting themselves and contributing to their...

    looking for a printer

    I'd recommend a Brother HL-2140. It survived me printing out 100+ pages a day in the months and weeks leading up to the HSC. The only downside is that it doesn't print colour.

    Spiders (Ice cream + fizzy drink)

    I once took a magnum ice-cream off the stick, crushed it up a bit in a glass, and added creaming soda. Awesome.

    If a tutorial is "full", could this change in the future?

    Thanks for the advice everyone. :) I kept checking the tutorials a couple of times a day, and I eventually found another tutorial that allowed me to avoid a two hour break - much better than the tutorial I was trying to get into in the first place. So now I'm pretty happy with my timetable.

    general UNSW chit-chat

    "Materials Science G10 (K-E8-G10)" I think that means Kensington campus, building E8, room G10? And E8 is Materials Science.

    So my teacher told me to stop giving ATAR Estimates...

    Maybe you should spend more time studying for your subjects, and less time frothing over ATAR percentiles.

    Need help in choosing electives in the International Studies program.

    PHIL007 is the old Knowledge and Reality course, I believe. UNSW Handbook Course - Knowledge and Reality - PHIL1007

    apple i-pad for uni?

    iPads cost $499 - $699. And $629 - $829 if you want 3G. I got a netbook a few days ago for $390, with almost four times more GB than the largest capacity model of iPad, a headphone jack, USB ports, more battery life, and a keyboard that you can actually use. iPads are a waste.

    apple i-pad for uni?

    If I wanted to pay double for something with half the functionality of an actual laptop/notebook, I'd get an antique typewriter.

    iPad

    It says you can watch movies on the iPad, but are they expecting you to hold the thing in your hands the whole time you're watching a 120 minute film? I don't get it. Expensive piece of crap.
