Where are you all? (1 Viewer)

I did "GENS 6011 - A Consumers Guide to DNA" this session and it is quite good.

Time Invested: 2 h/w
Assesments: 5, 5 question multiple choice papers, open book + 1 end of session multiple choice paper, open book

The lecturers were fun, the topics are presented well, and there is a fun lab in the middle. All-in-all, it was very enjoyable.

Ahhh, geneds...

I wanna find out if i can get FoC to accept my "Unspecified 6OUC" that was awarded when i transferred from Macq to be counted as a gened. (It was a computing subject that i did at macq)

 

[Grizzly]

I believe out of all uni threads, UNSW seems to be one of the most dead ones! Come on people... we can do better than that... Macquarie are meeting up for orgies for crying out loud!

Macquarie is the home of stalkers, what do you expect

 

[Eagles]

That's the one! I really wanna do... do you have stuff left over from it... notes etc?

noooo.. give me instead!

edit: wait.. think I'll do that next year...

 

[InfiniteQ]

I'm trying to decide what GenEds to do next term. Has anyone here done "Critical Thinking and Practical Reasoning - GENT0604", "The Use of Language, Images and Symbols - GENT0606" or "An Introduction to the Australian Legal System - GENL2020"?

I am enrolled in introduction to the Australian legal system and one of the philosophy ones. The law one is full at the moment http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~nss/sitar/classes/GENL_S2.html so if I drop it someone here might get a chance to enrol in it. I'm looking at a few other courses.

How do you do languages? The only courses I noticed on the list were Chinese Language for Beginners A - GENT0436 and Chinese Language for Beginners B - GENT0437. No European languages. I would very much like to do Latin.

Psyc is really BORING! Don't do it!
The methodology/stat lectures are HORRIBLE! Don't listen to Sarah!

hahaha, survivor i didn't actually say i went to those lectures, just mentioned the hrs involved.

Gosh, last yr i remember my mondays had 4hrs worth of stats. I ended up skipping the psych method/stats lects becuase i wanted a break between classes.

You can, you have to enrol LATNXXXX and then ask the school to transfer the 6 uoc to your Gen ed. Or other languages are also possible. I think there are modern greek, korean, japanese, german, french. So you must enrol in a 6 uoc mainstream language course.

Thanks, which school, the Latin/lanuages one or the one where I do my main degree?

 

[Survivor39]

School of Modern language Studies (Latin, Mordern Greek, Italian)
School of German and Russian Studies (Ger/Rus)
School of Spanish and Latin American (Spanish)
Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences

OMG so many different languages. lol

make sure you get permission from that school, AND your own faculty before doing it. You don't want to pay for it and not count.

i did italian as an elective this session. was awesome, cept for the 5 contact hours + practice time + 4 assessments in the last week of term. but theres no exam for it cause its run from usyd and stuff. i cant believe how easy the culture test was tho. its almost insulting to my intelligence.

and hurray for geneds!

concepts in physical fitness and music technology here i come!

 

[ohne]

Doesn't look like I can do latin next term because they only offer the second subject of most languages in term 2. I'll probably just do philosophy...maybe two subjects.
