    general UNSW chit-chat

    its a seemingly good idea... since the width of an escalator is usually limited, and that area is fairly large... rather than wasting space and having two escalators, have one going up and use the rest on stairs.. this way, people can easily go up... and fucktards that find it necessary to use...

    Question about WAM at UNSW

    not really... the different faculties/schools just make the rules about the way they reward things... like im doing an engineering degree so im indeed under the 75 WAM rule, but as im doing software engineering, the school (CSE) makes it that the CSE WAM is used rather than the UNSW WAM to...

    lower uai's on website

    If i'm understanding your query correctly... Universities can choose what UAI cuttoff they want for a course... so of course they can be different between universities... A high UAI cutoff doesn't necessarily mean a university requires really smart people, but it can be high to reduce the...

    Undergraduate marks in the 46 - 49 range are subject to consideration for Pass Conceded (PC) and are managed by NewSouthStudent(NSS) Information System. In deciding whether a mark in this range is granted PC status a uniform algorithm is applied, based on the marks under consideration, as...

    The Thread for ALL FIRST YEAR QUESTIONS.

    Chances are they could count as free options - they wont count as geneds unless you actually apply to have them to... However, you can check with your school regarding this (they're usually nice enough to do the counting for you)

    Anyone doing MATH1131 who did only 2U Math in High School?

    For posterity (i.e. if any high schoolers come across this later on).. anyone who's only done 2U maths should really do the bridging course before the commencement of uni... not only does it fill in the knowledge gap from not doing ext1, but since the bridging course is right before uni, it...

    Anyone doing MATH1131 who did only 2U Math in High School?

    well.. i did 1131 and only 2U maths in high school.. but before doing 1131, i did the Maths Bridging course provided by the uni.... it was what.. extension 1 maths condensed into a couple months or something... it helped... but a bit late for that now... i would also suggest to go over the...

    HD in engineering

    Well... try keep in mind that people with Engineering degrees have to do a thesis, i.e. Honours... so if you want a goal, you can aim to graduate with First Class Honours (WAM >75) or try go for the university medal (WAM > 85 and you've got substantially higher marks than anyone doing your...

    The S1 2009 Results Prediction/Real Thread

    one of my teachers in high school said that one should spend the day before an exam relaxing - like reading a good book (i.e. not a textbook) or whatever you do to relax.. since its better to feel calm on the day... of course i always try to heed his advice but there's nothing like failing to...

    Rate your lecturers

    I dunno if he's changed in recent years (i doubt it though), but Andrew Taylor is a very technical person.. he can teach you the stuff you need to know - but in a rather boring way.. so he's good cause he very much knows his stuff, but its easy to zone out and get distracted

    How hard is it to get HD for first years?

    there's no shortcuts.... exam questions are generally formulated so they require you to think - therefore you need to study... now stop being lazy and do things properly
