    Maths involved for comp sci

    Nope, nowhere near as deep. Most of the math you do in the other subjects are pretty specific and you can revise pretty quickly (like graphics is only about matrix algebra, and pretty straightforward ones at that)

    Maths involved for comp sci

    Very little to none. Subjects I know of that have some involved math content: algos, graphics, neural networks and machine learning.

    Wireless Rouers

    Just went from a stone age WRT54G to a Billion 7401VGP R3, and the WRT54G craps all over the Billion in wireless performance.

    Highest WAM you know of?

    One of my friends was a low 90. The three of us went through honours class 1 together but it got him the uni medal too.

    discrete mathematics

    Probably, depends on your program. Or you could wait till 1141 frees up.

    discrete mathematics

    Because you're a bit late in the enrolling, the stream of 1141 that doesn't clash with discrete is full atm. Class Details Class Details

    Damn Computer Science ELECTIVES!!!

    Like I said in the other thread, you can pick anything you want. Uni isn't spoon fed, you need to get used to looking for things.

    Computer Science Help!

    UNSW Handbook Course - Computing 1A - COMP1911 Anything you want, unless you're working towards a specialisation/major for some reason.

    COMP1911 vs COMP1917

    Everyone is different, you should just see how you adjust to uni life.

    COMP1911 vs COMP1917

    Do you want a life? I did higher comp and higher phys when I started. Didn't do higher math - I don't have a thing for maths. I think it was alright. Phys can be a bit tough at times, and higher comp is very enjoyable.

    Internet at UNSW

    Pretty sure colleges have their own thing. UNSW's wireless has been free for a couple of years now. IT at UNSW - UniWide - UNSW Wireless Network

    Math1231???!!!! *stressing* help!!!!!

    Don't know what your degree is, you should check if there are any restrictions on your electives.

    timetable help *confused*

    Swap the one of the two clashing classes for itself, then you'll be able to pick different streams of lectures/tutes/labs to find a timetable that hopefully doesn't clash.

    COMP1911 vs COMP1917

    My blanket advice for normal vs higher: If you're the academically capable type, you can handle your work and get off your ass, then go higher. Normal/higher courses have leeway (sometimes even past census) for students to go between the classes if they find they're not suitable.
