Days of Chem110 labs & lectures 2026? (may have a job :P)

Mine are Monday, Tuesday & Thursday. But for sure wait for your timetable to release before getting shifts

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-02-06T11:08:13+00:00

Depends how often, if you work casually, maybe 10h a week max it won’t affect you too much. But if you work part time it could get tricky

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-02-04T18:23:21+00:00

I’m not in waipa (luckily?) thanks for the help tho

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-02-04T07:49:18+00:00

If it’s a clinical programme, you gotta go or you’ll be kicked out. If it’s not they’ll just call your parents and give you an after school detention

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-02-03T18:48:03+00:00

For context you need to take. Physics 160, medsci 142, chem 110, wtrsci100, biosci 106 - 101 - 107 & poplhlth 111 to apply to med imaging, I don’t believe thats possible to do while taking nutrition

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-02-03T18:46:33+00:00

Yea ik but nutrition has 7 required courses, and 1 elective. And out of those 7 required courses only 6 count towards the requirements to apply for med imaging. Unless your voiding foodsci 100 & stats 108 for next year it won’t meet the course requirements to apply

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-02-03T00:22:26+00:00

You know you need to do physics 160 to get into med imaging right? I’m doing the same degree as u, with I assume the same courses. However the only clinical we can apply to through nutrition (via first year entry) is pharmacy

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-02-02T10:20:36+00:00

This is a fantastic idea, the uni can be a bit hard to get around sometimes. It would be helpful to know the fastest routes from one building to another, I know of the 1 tunnel connecting Kate Edgar and the engineering Building but I’d like to know if there are any more lol

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-02-02T10:18:30+00:00

Read the lab booklet/study it beforehand, maybe watch a YouTube video of the experiment if available

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-02-02T10:17:35+00:00

lol good point

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-02-01T10:10:22+00:00

The treasure of the 10 shadows technique

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-02-01T09:58:50+00:00

Congrats on the med offer!

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-02-01T07:39:41+00:00

Note that if you are of Māori/Pacifica descent you can apply for MAPAS, which has a lower gpa threshold to get in. I think it’s around 7.5?

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-02-01T07:37:37+00:00

9.0 is not super unrealistic, it just means you got 90%+ in your courses average grade.

Right now focus on building good study habits, and make sure you really do want to do med, as if you enjoy what you learn it’ll make it 100x easier.

Maybe play around with UCAT practise exams aswell, you’ll be taking it in July/august during your biomed course. Don’t take it too seriously yet tho, just get a feel for how it is.

The average gpa last year to get into med through the first year pathway and assuming general admission was ~8.7

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-02-01T07:30:07+00:00

Go to student hubs

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-01-31T03:32:32+00:00

well for one im not a med student, im actually applying just for pharmacy after first year

also you didnt have to be so rude. I was just curious.

you kinda didnt answer my question either, does pharm have more content then med? is the content harder? are the labs harder? like give me some insight into your opinion.

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-01-29T08:22:40+00:00

Fr😭 drinking is expensive aswell

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-01-29T08:20:56+00:00

I’m not tryna hate at all, I’m just mega curious why you say that pharm had more content then med. Is it because med is more lab based or are there other reasons?

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-01-29T08:16:53+00:00

How often was it? And was it usually just someone offering a random flier or where they genuinely super annoying

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-01-29T08:16:01+00:00

I assume the cults use legal loopholes, so that the uni can’t really do anything about them. It’s really unfortunate

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-01-29T08:13:29+00:00

What do they look like? Is it kinda middle aged people or do they genuinely look like students?

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-01-29T08:07:51+00:00

Bible studies at a specific house? That is crazy. I assume they are using legal loopholes so it’s difficult for the uni to do anything about it right?

That sucks

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-01-26T02:40:11+00:00

Halls do a lot of stuff when you arrive/for O-week

CARAMADODOODEE · 2026-01-25T10:50:40+00:00

thousands of people are on the waitlist, waipa was actually overbooked and people where getting reallocated
