I can tell you that you shouldn't buy from the library cafe, its bad. I've heard that the coffee near MUSE is good (though I've never had it)
You talking about the Coffee Cart outside W2.4A?

There's also a Staff Cafe at W5A, not sure if we can go in.

isnt it 5? not near the end, but imo it seems perfectly doable (its actually 1100 tbh, 1000 is minimum) as an essay

that being said im not near the end. What kind of sources are expected of us btw? are news articles for the most part fine you think?

Ah yea, 5 questions. But including intro and conclusion its about like ~200 each. I think news articles are okay. For my first assignment I put a book just in case (it was from google books). Only one book though, the rest are news articles and blogs.

I'd double check with a tutor/unit lecturer what the specific requirements are in terms of sources.

BBA102 was fairly strict and we had to use all journal articles, but in MKTG101 it was fine not to use journal articles.

I know what you mean I had a stat assignment and it's like a single question is worth 12 marks when there is only like 6 lines of working max...

Assignments always have stupid word limits.

To be honest though, I know 200 words or 1000 words total doesn't seem like a lot of space, but I've found when I actually write my assignments that they're usually quite close to what I write.

I do have an assignment now that has no word limit, but instead has suggested "20 pages or so" :lol:

Also FYI guys I forgot that at muse, there is a JP who can certify copies of documents if we show the original.

I'm going to be so happy once I finish this project today.

This software were using is evil. I have to show that Task 3 is dependant on Task 1 being completed, but when I do that, it decides to change all their dates randomly so they don't sit properly anymore. So I have to go back and manually edit everything! :evilfire:

Friendly reminder you need to change your OneID password by May 1st.

You won't be able to access (among other things) iLearn, Wifi or your emails if you don't update it.

If like me, you haven't updated your password since you started at Macquarie, I recommend getting in early so you don't have to panic for the next few weeks about why you can't get into your accounts to submit your assignments! :p
