    Semester 1 timetables 2011

    i pretty much wanna move my one sociology tut on friday to monday (where i do actually have spare times). anyone with inside knowledge know if this is plausible? i really don't think it's too much to ask :\ so then i only have to go in 4 days and i have less horrible gaps.

    Is it true you can't have a concession card if you are working?

    what, i didn't even apply for anything and i still got student concession. those grounds for not giving someone concession sound like bs. making $100 a week doesn't really help that much. i'm not paying anymore than i have to. the concession prices are as much as ANYBODY should pay for our...

    fucking timetables

    yeah seriously it's really fucking dumb that we have to wait so long for our timetables. how hard is it to get a computer to automate everyones timetables? or why can't we just pick them ourselves? and i was told at the enrollment day that we got to see our timetables on february 12. but does...

    Should we be attempting to 'solve' our historiography?

    then let me rephrase it better for you to understand: what i mean by coming to a conclusion is that yes, to an extent you should be solving your question. if you end the essay without figuring anything out, it's kind of a waste of everyone's time. i don't know what else the OP was asking. what...

    Should we be attempting to 'solve' our historiography?

    you should make some attempt to come to some sort of conclusion. if your end your essay without some intelligent final statement about your topic, it just feels too open-ended and on the fence. perhaps you won't 'solve' it completely, but it's better than ending your essay the same as you...

    question about lectures/timetabling

    ok if a certain unit has two of the same lectures available, do we get timetabled into one of them or are we just free to waltz into which ever one we want? or does it depend on the size of the lecture?

    UNI Timetables

    does this "automatic" timetabling process usually do a decent job of creating a good timetable... like, not having 6 hour gaps between classes, or spreading everything out on 5 different days when it is avoidable...? :\
