    Pretty much, it's ECMT. So Economics side of it. I did a Science based stat course. We started hypothesis testing about 4 weeks in. Loved it so much while the rest of the class struggled. And that's the thing, Excel is way too simple, and that gets to me. But I guess I just don't like using...

    Semester 1 USYD Chatter Thread 2013

    So, all my tut leaders are pretty cool guys. Spent a bit talking to my stat tut leader because I was interested in when we get into the good stuff(hypothesis testing, best thing in stats) and it made me sad because most of that is next semester. But, I'm really disliking Excel rather than using...

    Relying on coffee to keep me awake. ECMT1010 was a waste of time, only showed up so I don't forget the basic stat stuff. Not doing anything until 12 so bumming around in Fisher Library on the computers on the ground floor.

    My Claw1001 lecturer has bagged out pretty much all other Sydney unis, as well as some Melbourne ones. And yeah, people just walk on the opposite side. I just don't cross coming back from uni until I'm right at the station if there are people there. And going to uni I cross as soon as the...

    USYD Strike

    It was coming from the student left. Some girl quoted it on Alex Dore's status, I then pulled the actual staff figures out and worked that the percentage that voted for the strike in the university was about 12%. The people on strike were trying to say all lectures were cancelled. And for the...

    I had no problem with them, but then again I was muttering about how they were entitled pricks as I walked through the picket line... And we also had a guy get up in front of our lecturer and tell us all to walk out. No one in the lecture hall moved.

    It's funny because they were trying to say that 94% of staff voted for it. About 12% of total staff voted. But yeah, what you said there seems to be the general opinion of people.

    Looking at things, you have three classes in common with me. What stream are you in for Econ1001 and ECMT1010?

    Mate, current inflation figures are at 2.2%. The 4% offered is well above inflation. Also, they came into my lecture this morning and were trying to get us to walk out. Spent like 10 minutes talking, halfway through the lecturer got bored so pulled out his phone and took a picture. No one...

    About 3 times inflation. Inflation is currently at 2.2%. The way the VC has handled this whole thing has been pretty well done.

    I've got two CLAW1001 lectures tomorrow, we're actually learning stuff and I want to print the lecture slides up. But the dick put a blue background on the downloadable ones. Fixed it, had to get rid of a background object in the master slide. I'm not wasting my ink on.

    That'll work as an estimate. I don't know how much I drank... And ffs, ECMT1010 isn't appearing on my Blackboard. Trying to work out if the textbook is required. :/

    If you have a smart phone get the app. Then enable GPS, go to map, then search your building. Problem solved.

    There are textbooks for things that aren't in science?

    I can't believe the amount of stuff first years do, I will admit I got lost in my first week at my old uni. But I only brought paper and pens to lectures and stuff, and worked out how my timetable worked.
