I made the mistake of doing ENGG1000 in 2nd sem, my group knew nothing and refused to offer any help and it was the biggest pain in the ass to do all the work, write the reports and then show up to the final testing with a POS that barely even functioned. Imo you should definitely avoid it and...

Personally I don't find anything fun about it, but it's not too bad. What sucks about it is that you will have to courses that don't have anything to do with you major so that will seem like a boring waste of time but it's like that at every uni. Here's a warning though, if you choose Computer...

I think you'll want to do Computer Science, not Computer Engineering (there's a few differences, also Comp Eng is 4 years while Comp Sci is a 3 year course). Check out these 2 links: http://www.cse.unsw.com/information/future-students/undergraduate/programs/computer-science/COMPA13978.html...

I was talking to a second year and he said (wasn't sure about this) that if you're required to do 24 UoC for semester 2, you can split it into 12 UoC for semester 2 and 12 UoC in a summer semester (Edit: I believe this is called "underloading"?). Is this how things work? Because if it is I may...

A vast majority of the people I've seen from 1917 are flamboyant fanboys who have the most retarded (and incorrect) views ("hurr durr loonix is butter then windoes!!!") and throw around random terminology just to sound more 'teknicool'. There was one guy who walked into our tut room (all guys)...

The only camp I'm eligible for is CSESoc, which seems like pissy shit from the description "There'll be trivia, dancing, activities outside (*gasp*)". Is there even going to be any booze or will it just be like highschool camp all over again where we have crappy curfew times and have to do...

If this is correct then you'll have to do an internal transfer (either mid year or after the whole year, and that will depend on your WAM).

This. Just going to point out the some of those Unis cost 4x (four times) more per year (not including accommodation etc, just purely university fees), and they're only a big deal in their own country.

As a student who went to a partially selective school, I'd have to say it's pretty shit (the non-selective side). Of course that's most probably because the locals came from bad suburbs, but regardless if you're going to have a school it should either be fully selective or completely non...

Lmao, was the subject really easy or did you just perform a lot better than your cohort?

That makes sense, hence why I used quotations on the financial part. Completely agree. UAC gives points out too easily. I repeat, learn to harden up. [Edit] 'Gender: Female'. Lol.

I don't agree that things like 'Financial hardship' and such are valid reasons to get extra ATAR points, I mean what's the excuse? "Oh I suffered from financial hardship and so couldn't afford to get any external tutoring, this disadvantaged my performance!". By that logic I should get EAS...

Nah. They don't "care" but it is possible they might prefer someone who has minored in a degree that is relevant to the job than someone who has minored in something completely irrelevant. Although I doubt it's ever that big of a deal.

Ironic shit posting is still shit posting. This.

Do they check for UTS ID there? I'm going to be down around UTS tonight and a few of my friends at UTS asked me to join them.
