How do you know how many hours per week per subject is eg tutes, lectures per week etc ? Can’t find where it spells out subject X is 6 hours a week made up of 3 lectures and 3 tutes. Gonna be a s*it show Jan 19

It will be in the unit of study guides, at the individual department websites. For a unit worth 6 credit points, it should average to 6 h per week of formal contact.

It may not be the same each week, too. It could be 3 x 1 h lectures / week for 13 weeks (39 hours) plus 10 weeks with 1 x 3 h lab session (30 weeks) plus 9 weeks with 1 x 1 h tutorials (9 hours) for (39 + 30 + 9) / 13 = 6 h per week average.

Exactly my point, where does it spell it out ?Maybe it will not allow you to enrol in 4 tutes if only 3 needed for the week (as you select them). Can’t find this detail in unit of study guide. It should say Lecture 1 with multiple times, Lecture 2 multiple times etc. Maybe I’m just slow - failed uni already lol

Class timetabling system kinda looks like this:

Subject
- Lecture
- Tutorial
- Whatever
Subject 2
...

u click through each of those options and choose one of the available times.

you can't rlly screw it up dw about it

You can see how long each class will be at usyd by looking at the timetable preview https://timetable.sydney.edu.au/even/timetable/#subjects

For most classes, each subject each week involves a 2-hour lecture, and 1-2 hour tutorial. The exception is science, engineering and maybe medicine, which have much higher contact hours.
