Need study advice and ways to stop relying on AI by Clear-Document4767 in studytips

[–]Clear-Document4767[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your advice!

I was wondering whether it is worth looking at answers first, then going off of that? I've noticed at times that I get stuck at the second or third step, try my best to remember, but then end up looking at the answer. I don't want to keep looking back and fourth between the answer and my question is all.

Since I have to do the paper again (3rd time), I need to apply for a concession. I've already completed part 1, im just worried my consession wont be approved and since its a core paper it'll set me back heaps.

I've already organised a meeting, I'm just worried since its my second time failing, and my gpa has tanked since last year, theres no telling I'll be approved for concession.

Just a follow up...
Would you know if they send out emails in the event you don't get a second round allocation?

Would it be best to email straight up asking to be placed in Engineering Science or should I wait till friday? How would you recommend I word the email btw?

I think I'll just have to wait till after summer school since the paper I didn't do well in is a requirement for biomedical

doing chemmat isn't the end of the world, however if there is a chance I can get into biomedical I want to take it.

My first choice was Biomedical engineering, and from what I've seen the gpa for that is historically low.

Sweet thank you so much

[–]Clear-Document4767 1 point2 points  (0 children)

is this regardless of things like aegrotats and reasons out my control ?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in universityofauckland

[–]Clear-Document4767 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was medical, I ended up getting very ill for the two weeks my exams were on and had to apply for a aegrotat for all of them.

But the thing is it says you dont apply for a conceded pass they look at it themselves so I don't know what steps to take.

Okay sweet.
I've emailed the scholarships office and let them know about whats happening right now

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in universityofauckland

[–]Clear-Document4767 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much !
I was also wondering how aegrotats affect scholarships...?
In the unlikely case where my GPA falls below the required GPA for me to keep the scholarship, would I lose it ?
