The blog in itself is not marked but your blog entries will be what you use as evidence when putting together your portfolio so they are just as important.

The course outline has this to say: "This is the most recent edition and any previous editions must not be used as a substitute."

Take a look at this page on the UNSW website. The graph on there shows that on average about 35% of people get 75 or above, but it varies a huge amount from course to course.

COMP1917 can be taken instead of COMP1911 regardless of what stream you're in. You won't need COMP1917 for civil but given that you're unsure and are interested in computing you might as well give it a go. If you find it way too difficult you'll be able to drop down to COMP1911 easily in the...

"If you are unable to select the Lecture for MATH1081 then the course is full regardless of spaces being available in the tutorials. There are very limited places available in the lecture as these are reserved for students in the Advanced Maths Programs. Please contact Markie Lugton...

Are you referring to where it says "8.Students may not enrol into Level II courses until at least 30 UOC of Level I courses have been successfully completed."? If so, that is talking about all of your courses, not just the maths ones.

1st year commerce/engineering also

Managed to get a 3 day timetable apart from some occasional computing tests, very happy

Engineering / Commerce at UNSW

I went to a school which offered both the HSC and IB and it was clear to everybody that the workload for the IB was significantly less. When we were in year 11 they only did a single piece of assessment, and so by the end of our first term of year 12 we had already done more stuff which counted...

I was only talking about splitting the first year of subjects (which is all engineering) and choosing any 8 commerce subjects you want (likely the compulsory ones, some flexi cores, and some from your major). Have a read of the handbook, everything is there even if it takes a while to find. Yep...

It all depends: If you drop to straight commerce, MATH1131/MATH1141 replaces ECON1203 from your commerce degree so that wouldn't be wasted. You should also be able to count 2 courses as general education so they wouldn't be wasted either. If you swap from engineering to something like science...

I'm in the same situation as you and had some of those questions answered on this thread. Essentially they recommend you do all engineering in year 1 but you don't have to follow what they say - I think I'm going to do half engineering and half commerce (or maybe 3 engineering and 1 commerce)...
