What's wrong with learning things you enjoy?

It's not socially acceptable and makes other people feel insecure. Shame on you!

You Sir, are an imbecile.

ikr. I'm gonna be learning some computing languages and maybe some economics/philosophy (srs)

If you don't want any fails in first year it's the only option.

What did you fail?

 

[soloooooo]

Nope Uni will be chill like all my other years of schooling

Uni is several times harder than the HSC. The HSC is for rote learners: try that in uni and you will fail miserably.

First year math has a high fail rate. Even those who done 4unit math in high school fail it.

I actually 'studied' ahead because I really did enjoy it, and it was essentially the equivalent of reading a novel.

And I was essentially guaranteed acceptance into my degree, so nothing would be wasted.

If you're not trolling then I suggest not to do it; you won't even know if you got into the relevant course yet.

I didn't fail because straight after my HSC physics exam I got stuck into the pinching theorem in MATH1131.

...You guys haven't started studying for uni yet? I've accelerated with my tutor and I'm about halfway through 3rd year maths. I just hope that's enough to do well .

 

[SpiralFlex]

its not like your guaranteed a spot in the course your studying for straight after HSC. what if you got into another course and all that studying became useless?

I don't think people studying after the HSC are aiming for the marks. They want knowledge and pleasure from learning things they enjoy.

This. I'm starting my computer science course because I enjoy the area of study and love what I can do with the knowledge, not for university primarily - although that is a benefit.

I'm going to study the floor with my good friend corona

 

[Capt Rifle]

wow dude just chill and dont even think about work! you just finish 13 years of school, the last thing you would want to do is to look at a textbook haha

 

[_pikachu]

After HSC, do stuff that you enjoy
learn an instrument, play games or go out with friends
If you enjoy studying for uni, then go ahead
But after a year of *cough* hard work, i reckon its time for a break

Is that the same thing as the 'sandwich rule'?

 

[deswa1]

I'll be busy doing Extension 2 Cronulla Beach studies

I might look at a few things out of interest but probs nothing related to my uni degree

 

[onedaysnotice]

I'll start studying for uni later, probably after new years. When that time comes, I'll go through the 3u math hsc course (since I don't want to do an abridging course at uni). I'll also start learning C, probably C++, and I'll be programming games as usual in Lua Hoping to have finished a turn-based rpg and a bullet-hell shooter, and to have started programming the bones of my 2D fighting game. Also thinking of a point-and-click game atm too.

Oh yeah, I'm also gonna have to start working on 3d modelling again as well, and photoshop too :/

When does uni usually start? June? xD
