Re: The UTS 'Get Naked and Secks!!' Thread

when did they make engineering communication a core subject for engineering?
cos seriously, eng comm is equivalent to feeding your fingers through an automated pencil sharpener in terms of pain. its almost as bad as HSC english! and about as useful too.

Re: The UTS 'Get Naked and Secks!!' Thread

yeah, pretty fair. some of the mc questions were a bit weird.. like the last question on where an auditor would find info on an australian company.. i put the australian, but i was tossing it up with the AFR.

the short answers were pretty easy.. pretty basic questions on the audit model and assertions, which were very much easier to do than stuff in the Cloud 9 workbook.

i can't believe that audit exam had a failure rate of 45%!! i thought that most people would have found it reasonably straight forward...

^ this is one reason why i believe restricted open book exams don't work - it just provides an opportunity for the unscrupulous to cheat.

Thats because so many got caught cheating and i know this from all the exam misconduct cases i heard
Do that many get caught cheating in exams? I would have thought those misconduct cases would primarily be based on other grounds like plagiarism which seems easier to be detected.

It happens sometimes for me. Normally when I'm trying to get uni results though.
Maybe try a couple hours later?

Re: The UTS 'Get Naked and Secks!!' Thread

UTS is the best.

I love it. I went to USYD at lidcombe for this semester and I'm coming back to UTS next semester. The campus there is shit. computers are shit. tutorial rooms are shit, its like a high school literally. Crap tables which are about 10 years old, crap chairs, gum stuck underneath the tables :D Lecture rooms = gg epic fail

Comps are scarce, they don't have them hanging around like UTS does <333 Parking is shit.. Hmm what else is shit, everything.

Why have 10 computers available when 20 stuents need them. That's UTS's problem. Sure they have alot of computer rooms, but its not enough to satisfy all students during peak times.

Why did they get rid of the 15 min machines in Building 2 level 4?

Compared to USYD, theres nothing, I have literally seen no rooms dedicated to computers and the library at lidcombe has computers enough for 1 out of 10 people.
