    Can you pass a final exam from just reading the lecture slides?

    Lulz. Time to change my study habits. Also OP, if it's your only exam then you should be aiming for like a HD or something. Definitely something more than a pass. Some people have 2 weeks to study for 4 exams, and many of them will get D's/HD's. So if they can, I'm sure you can too.

    Drop engineering and just do commerce.

    You just listed two massive positives of doing comm/engineering over a straight commerce. What are the negatives? And no, "spending more time at uni" is not a negative. Neither is money, especially if OP is interested in banking. Also you're arguing that you can have the same amount of exposure...

    Transferring to IR/Law

    He knows that, which is why he's not asking what the chances are of transferring straight into Law. He's asking what the chances are to transfer into Arts, THEN transfer into Law.

    Maths or Science compulsory for Year 11/12 Students

    This. High school science has a lot of history, and tbh the maths that you study in high school is more like the stuff you do in uni science, so science probably doesn't need to be made compulsory. The point of making it compulsory is to get our population educated to some extent about...

    Monash and RMIT Aerospace Engineering?

    If you read the syllabus for your Aerodynamics 1 and 2, they are pretty much the equivalent of fluid mechanics. And if you're going to do a mech eng degree but have no intention of going into anything mech related, you're better off doing an aero degree. Also, in my experience at least, the...

    Monash and RMIT Aerospace Engineering?

    I, like you, wanted to work in the aviation or space industry and so had plans to do a degree in aeronautical engineering. However I worked in Qantas for a week and got to see what aero engineers in Australia really do, and I did not like it. But I still liked aircraft in general, so I chose the...

    Union Board Elections

    Wow just read up on that as well. Not as democratic as I'd hoped.

    Monash and RMIT Aerospace Engineering?

    Ok there are some things here that I just don't know about and can't answer, but I'll answer the ones that I can. Firstly, it seems kinda weird to me that you are interested in "electronics" but not interested in "electrical stuff". Perhaps this is just due to my lack of knowledge of anything...

    Better mark principle (math)?

    I agree with you, even for advanced the final is harder to score high marks in compared to the quizzes. Realise is just a genius at maths so one silly mistake that brings him down to a mark of 90% in the quiz is easily disregarded when the one silly mistake in the final brings him down to only...

    The Football Thread

    They will get hammered by Barca. 4-1 my prediction.

    Electrical mechanical or mechatronic?

    If something has a moving part, a mechanical engineer designed it. Mechanical engineers commonly work with mechanical systems (a system that uses power to accomplish some task). Examples are engines, large machinery like the stuff you'd see in oil & gas and a bicycle. It's quite hard to define...

    Federal Budget 2015

    Ah yes you're right. My bad.

    Economics major at UNSW vs USYD

    What's so bad about spending 5 years at university if you're fine with 4 years?

    Federal Budget 2015

    ^ That's definitely not what I heard.

    Units and transferring?

    Yeah, Amleops is right. You won't just be disadvantaged, your WAM just flat out won't be considered at all.

    Federal Budget 2015

    To be fair, while it hasn't completely changed from what the Libs were trying to push last year, there are quite a large number of changes. Apart from the individual changes itself, there's also a shift in how he Libs want to approach the next 10 years from an economic perspective. I'm not...

    Exchange University Ranking Importance

    Yeah, I was actually looking into that so much until recently. I'd have to go for a year because of how their classes are set up though, and that means I'll pretty much have to finish the engineering part of my degree overseas (not including honours, obviously). There's also no guarantee that...

    Exchange University Ranking Importance

    Ah yes, opportunity costs and all. I have nothing planned for that semester though, so I won't be missing out on anything. Haha no worries. Thanks for your responses!
