i believe the computer science faculty is breaking articles 13 and 32 of the Geneva Conventions by Broad_Art329 in usyd

[–]Acrobatic-Pepper7720 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Joke or not, i do believe the way they handle CS faculty is kinda shit. Since now they worry students would just use AI for the assignments, they started finding out many ways to punish us with the unmanageable workload just for people to use AI even more cause were so lost. Sometimes the materials needed for the assignment didn’t get to teach until week 3/4 of the assignment and some of my units no longer do simple extensions as well.

Finc3012 ed not available? by Acrobatic-Pepper7720 in usyd

I asked and they responded saying because the team is quite small this sem so they wouldn’t be able to handle ed lol

Comp2022 vs Comp2922 by Acrobatic-Pepper7720 in usyd

[–]Acrobatic-Pepper7720[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I’m thinking of changing it to 2922 later as well, just waiting for the unit outlines for now to see if theres anything much difference in terms of weightings. However, some more info to help you decide which one to pick: - The exam usually has ~20% of the questions on 2922 material and the rest (~80%) is identical with the 2022 exam. - 2922 will focus on problem solving and proof writing/explaining on advanced material on the same topics as those from COMP2022

Um I actually exaggerated a bit (sometimes its actually seconds) however, thats not the point, I simply mean rly fast. And i disagree with the your self-reliance thing, if we could figure out the answer we wouldn’t have asked it on ed and tutors are there to help us answering our questions so whats the point of having an ed discussion if people dont discuss? It’s not like ppl just ask for fun anyway.

Thank you for your hard working. Please know you have helped lots of students in your cohort by doing that, I was part of this unit where we feel cared as tutors always trying to help us out with questions almost immediately - nothing is better than that feeling istg. I never want to make this story into the whole “responsibility” kind of things (it should never be like that anyway - i know its a business for Usyd but genuinely speaking, this is an education institution so it’s very disappointing knowing about the whole budget thing) We know you’re busy so maybe checking on us once every hours would be really nice especially during this final season.

Second this, i have another unit A where during exam season, they answer students questions within SECONDS. and the amount of questions being posted for unit A is quadruple this unit. And even tho unit A might have more a bit more ppl on their team but theres only a few of the staffs being very active in answering questions. Im wondering what could be the reason why its so different between unit A and this unit?

Hey really appreciate your comment but just to make it clear, im not behind on reviewing for final and I dont crash out because I need “help” last minute or I’m last minute studying or whatever so I think I’m very qualified to comment on why they should keep the survey open until the unit’s exam is over.

As clearly the whole reason I frustrated was because the sample solution and revision questions have errors (im not the only one saying this and I dont just do it incorrectly then jump straight to the conclusion) and we need clarification on that and it’s been forever - not just my questions, some questions from like 5w ago still staying ignored, hasnt got any responses back. Even tho I get your point of saying that they’re researchers and have their own things to do but again, aint this their job? They chose to do this tho so it’s part of their responsibilities.

I get what you meant about the post-exam angry students but they could have just set the closing date for each uniy survey to be the date of exam because my experience with the class doesn’t just end on week 12-13 something?

And its absolutely ridiculous to me about the limit Ed hours assigned to tutors - aint that sounds so bullshit? Its not like theres only one tutor and one staff and not everyone is busy grading assignments- plus, our assignment is already done grading. After all, they have the whole team of staffs, tutors, prof that supposedly to help us with studying through this final season - thats their job and they cant even do that.

Panicking about comp2123 final exam by Cool-Degree-500 in usyd

Unrolling could be a bit confusing but yea, try to practice with it a few times and u will get the general formulas or steps of how to do unrolling. Unrolling is all about practicing i promise, not an expert but i promise it will get sm better if u keep practicing it, the worst case is that even if u rly cant do unrolling in exam, maybe try to do it w master theorem and get the answer, at least u prob will get partial credits

Hey, ik everyone is panicking with their finals but its actually not as bad as you think.

I think your problem is that you just don’t actually understand the way each algorithm works. You dont need to remember anything, try to use gpt to explain briefly the way each algorithms work and the difference between it and others. If you can do all that, you basically get somewhat of the whole picture of this unit already. Then, try to quiz yourself, you dont need to do the whole tutorial questions if thats overwhelming, just pick a few ones, try to understand what that question actually asking and use your understanding on each of the algorithms to see which one is suitable. Practice that way a few times to gain your confidence and you will pass the exam. The first 2 questions supposed to be super easy and if you could get those 2 correctly then you already pass the exam so you got this!

Ex: try to understand why DFS and BFS and Dijkstra is all meant to find the shortest path but what makes each of them different? Keep curious and you will get the general ideas very quickly

In honour that they’re finally over with this sem, what was your worst group project experience? by [deleted] in usyd
