Congratulations.

Thanks!

I think it's just based on academic results of the previous year and recommendation by the Dean of pharm faculty.

 

[kokodamonkey]

Rafy when can we go in and modify timetables?

 

[Aerath]

Any freshman-to-be kids got their ID Cards yet? I thought they said they'd send them out within 7-10 days of enrolment.

I haven't got mine either, though I heard some people have. Might just have to wait a bit longer.

[bio_nut]

Not really, haven't you like changed faculty too?

Or does science still administer it?

 

[kokodamonkey]

sounds complicated.

 

[bio_nut]

science still administers it.

went from B Psych (science) to B Psych (arts). which is different to BA Psych (which the arts faculty admins)

it's the same course as before, just my second major is an arts one instead of science. this is the first year they're offering it.

Ahh, ok.

My transfer was really simple, lol.

So you don't actually have to do any real science?

 

[kokodamonkey]

so what subjects you doing this year then Bek

 

[wixxy2348]

got the letter to confirm my transfer application was accepted today

seems like an awful lot of paperwork for transferring streams within the same degree but meyh

yay it's about time too!
seems like forever and a half ago that you started the process?

After going with my sister today to enrol her into UTS, I'm glad we have our system of timetables. Most of the morning classes we're all gone by the time we got there.

Also, for those of you who do science degrees, why on earth do lab classes go for so long!

...because you need time to do the experiments?

That's what I thought. But three hours. I start losing concentration at 1 and a half hours.

Yeah, I sometimes get bored. No choice though. And I get to study subjects I enjoy now, haha.

edit: 3 hours is a short lab! I have 5 hour labs! They suck immensely.
