Yeah, tutorial registration can be fun and immensely intense if your browser suddenly refreshes the page at a much slower rate. But considering I was taking my chances with my capped net last semester, I couldn't get some of my times and ended up staying back at uni for an extra few hours lol...

I'm dreading the day when we have to register for our tutorials. Basically, you're fighting for your class times against tons of other students. If your preferred tutorials are full, tough luck! You will be stuck with your crappy times if you're not refreshing the damn page fast enough! I hate...

An easier way of thinking about it is that the weeks used by UWS are in accordance with the year. For example, week 10 (March 1) is the 10th week of the year. :)

A key program is definitely compulsory as it will be your main area of specialisation, which in this case is marketing! And like I said in my previous post, the Business & Commerce degree requires you to complete 240 points (24 units), which means you can't graduate with just a mere major. You...

A key program is practically the same as a major. The only difference between a key program and a major, for example, is that your degree will state "Business & Commerce (Marketing). Your major will be listed somewhere in the transcript and will simply mean that you have specialised in a...

Unit-sets is the place where you'll select your key program, major or sub-major. Depending in which course you're enrolled in, you won't have to select your key program straight away. For example, business & commerce students can choose to select their key program at the end of the first year so...

lol, here's the link if you haven't already attempted the test. :) Edit: whoops, seems like the link isn't working! But the test should be somewhere on VUWS, most likely in one of your course folders.

I'm guessing you will be forced to take up a unit called Mathematics Toolbox, which is a unit designed to prepare students for stats. Once you have successfully pass that unit, you can enroll into stats! I could be wrong though, since this applies to business students so I'm not sure about ICT.

You can only take the test once, so it's best to be cautious when you're choosing your answers! And as for logging into VUWS, you should contact someone from UWS and explain your situation unless you're not typing in your correct account ID and PW.

The Basic Math Skills Test should be located somewhere on VUWS (E-Learning). The test itself is all online, which will provide you with an hour to complete 30 multiple choice questions based on HSC General and 2unit Mathematics. Once you have gained a minimum mark of 70%, try enrolling into...

Yep, but you'd have to consult with your unit/course coordinator beforehand to get special permission in order to enroll into a subject at another campus! :)

Same applies to myself and a few of my friends. We haven't received anything in the mail despite it being 4 days now. Let's hope that it will arrive by tomorrow! :)

There's no point worrying about whether you'll get accepted into UWS or not at this stage. The only thing you can do is to be prepared and research all of your other alternatives to fall back on. Good luck though!

Ugh, I left out two short answers because I ran out of time. -_-

Since your key program is accounting, aren't you planning to take up Laws of Business Organisations and Corporate Financial Management as your two electives for the autumn semester? Although it's not compulsory, it would be wise to choose both of those units to successfully seek accreditation...

Are you entering in the unit codes correctly? You pretty much have to enter the numbers before the point, for example: instead of "1234.1" you have to use "1234". If that's not the case, then I'd advise you to contact someone from UWS. :)

^lol, stats. I'm hell scared I might fail that unit next semester. :) Anyhow, my friends told me about this yesterday; so happy that I haven't failed anything! BAS: Credit Marketing Principles: Credit Principles of Econ: Distinction Accounting Information for Managers: Credit

Re: General chit chat/get to know thread. ^I do! :)

Let's see... including us two, there was around 7 asians in our tute.

^I mean in general; usually shirts with buttons, collar and either long or short sleeves (aka dress shirts or whatever you want to call them).
