Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2016

Speaking of ECON1101

How did you guys prepare for the final exam?
Hmm

I skimmed over the textbook to make sure I knew everything. Day before the exam, I did some random M/C one of my mates found. Oh and I also briefly looked at the questions and answers.


Besides that, which in total didn't even aggregate up to 15 hours, pfft what study. It's just ECON1101

I'm actually only doing ECON1101 this semester but I have brief notes on most chapters which I will read through, then I'll read the last chapter which I haven't got around to learning yet. After that I'm planning on doing review questions because I never finish my hw lmao

Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2016

Once upon a time, in a forest, there was a clearing. A fox came into a clearing.

And saw a rabbit. And the rabbit was typing.

The fox said "What are you doing?"
And the rabbit said "I'm writing my thesis."

The fox said "Oh really? What's it about?"
The rabbit said "it's entitled: The role of the fox in the diet of the rabbit"

And the fox said
"Haven't you got that the wrong way around? It's foxes that eat rabbits."

And the rabbit said "No no no, this is right. Come down the rabbit hole with me, and I'll show you how it's done."

So the fox and the rabbit went down the rabbit hole.

And after a while, the rabbit came back by itself. Licked its lips, and went back to the typing.

...

And a while later a wolf came into the clearing.

"What are you doing?"
"I'm writing my thesis"
"Oh what's it about?"

"It's on: Wolf protein, as a source of rabbit nutrition."

The wolf said "Don't be ridiculous that's completely farcical"
"No come down, come down here and I'll show you."
So they went down there

And a while later the rabbit came by itself burped and went back to the WORD processing.

...

Some time later a BEAR came into the clearing.

"What are you doing?"
"I'm writing my thesis"
"What's it on?"

"Why rabbits eat bears."

"Don't be ridiculous"
"No come down here come down the hole and I'll show you."

And they went down the burrow together

And they came into a big room.

In one corner of the room there was a pile of fox bones.
In another corner of the room, there was a pile of wolf bones.

In the third corner, there was a lion, picking its teeth.


And the moral of the story is, it doesn't matter what your thesis is about, or what you use for data or conclusions.

The important thing, is to have a good supervisor.

Don't know of many people who actually finish it tbh

I've just been putting together a document throughout the semester that has screen shots of the questions and answers (Waiting on them to post answers for the final topic).

Is it stupid to have two tutes back to back, one in upper campus and the other in lower campus?

Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2016

Would it be better to have a 1hr gap instead?
Yes to get lunch and have enough time to walk but then again classes usually start and finish at x:05 and end at x:55 in general. Tbh i would just have the hour break

I would definitely go for the break.

Going from my MATH1251 lecture at Matthews to my ACCT1511 tutorial in ASB isn't exactly fun as is.

Business students:

Has anyone gone to consultation before? I know that PASS is like a second-year run extra tutorial thing but what's consultation about? Just asking the lecturer/tutor questions 1-to-1 or?
