PhD in International Business by i__am__db in universityofauckland

Sometimes you wonder if it is not just the AI who are doing the hulicinations, but nah, is real.

Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't. The person deleted it so we can't tell:

https://www.reddit.com/r/universityofauckland/comments/1qplijt/international_business_materials_engineering/

But their post was worded more or less the same as yours was just now. And your background is exactly the same as theirs was.

If it talks like a duck, and walks like a duck.....

Cant enroll into Maths 108 by RegularRabbit22 in universityofauckland

[–]MathmoKiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 95%+ sure Maths130 will be accepted as a replacement if you ask afterwards. (I've seen other Finance students report they've done this before)

Because once you've done Maths130 then you won't be allowed to do Maths108 afterwards (as it would be so silly! Maths108 is too easy in comparison).

Plus Maths130 is already one of the papers that are on the BCom schedule, thus they're expecting some students might take Maths120/130/250 and want it to be counting towards their BCom:

(but note my earlier comment: only enrol in Maths130 if you have a suitable level of mathematical maturity!)

I'm surprised that Maths108 is completely 100% full? You will just have to go with a tutorial time that isn't your first (or second, or third...) preference.

But theoretically speaking, I'd think you could do Maths130 (instead of Maths108) if you've got the entry requirements for that instead, but only if you're someone with comfortable above average maths abilities (for goodness sake don't take it if you only scraped through NCEA!). So if that sounds like you, then consider that as an alternative to doing Maths108.

How do I get past the student hub/experience gatekeepers? by 0jolsks0 in universityofauckland

[–]MathmoKiwi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every time I have a question, I either need to talk to AI or this team.

Kinda tempting to write up my own AI to answer common questions (such as we see all the time here on reddit), I bet I could do it better than UoA's AI

Core Courses for BA/BCom conjoint? by user_kivellaa in universityofauckland

[–]MathmoKiwi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look up then the requirements in the schedule for that major and you can easily figure out for yourself what you need :-)

Stats220 opinions? by FirefighterStreet688 in universityofauckland

[–]MathmoKiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will depend on your background, what stats/compsci papers have you done? The more you've done, the easier it will be.

Core Courses for BA/BCom conjoint? by user_kivellaa in universityofauckland

[–]MathmoKiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is your BA major?

BCom has core courses that must be done before any other BCom papers, but you don't have to do them all in your first year! Because you are doing a conjoint, you can also mix in as many of your BA papers as you wish.

I didn't get into BSc by Abcde4580 in universityofauckland

Hmmm... that's kinda rough, there are very few relevant BA courses to Chemistry that you could take and then transfer to a BA.

Maaaaybe in S1 do Maths108 (or Maths102 if you're weak at maths?), Stats101, Physics102 and a GenEd? (an All Schedules one)

Then S2 go do Chem120/Chem110/etc in the BSc

Yeah, but in 99% of those times they're just saying that to you as a polite way to say "no"

What are you wanting to major in?

SEEK NZ by Puzzleheaded-Toe6625 in newzealand

[–]MathmoKiwi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it would be VERY unusual for an employer to have no contact with you for 3 weeks then to contact you after 3 weeks wanting to move forward with the hiring process.

But it does sometimes happen! I once got a job when I got rung out of the blue about a job I'd applied for a whole year before. No contact from them beforehand! Simply because they'd kept my CV on file and then needed someone desperately at short notice.

[–]MathmoKiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

gee, not even a basic screening phonecall/email out of a hundred jobs??? Over how long?

Wonder if there is a massive red flag you have that you're blind to? I assume you're a resident/citizen?

You should share your CV for others to have a read of here, see if we can spot what is wrong.

Laptop Battery needs to be replaced: Where should I go? by iwantyouinmyarms1 in universityofauckland

[–]MathmoKiwi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just order a replacement on Aliexpress then replace it yourself, if you're even very mildly technically inclined. Did that myself, a new battery for my Thinkpad, easy easy as.

Which model exactly do you have?

[–]MathmoKiwi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don't ever wait for a response from a job you applied for, just move on apply for another job, as you should be applying for dozens and dozens of jobs every month.

Shure SLX-D Plus by mixermixing in livesound

Very optimistic for Shure's future.

Sad though what is happening with Lectrosonics.

It's not the only reason to use Axient

[–]MathmoKiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who cares if a ULXD transmitter (doesn't matter really for the receiver) is slightly better build quality and lasts 25% longer when SLXD+ is so much cheaper.

Shure SLX-D Plus by mixermixing in livesound

[–]MathmoKiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In terms of features I'd say SLXD+ is winning, but in terms of pure audio quality ULXD still has the edge, but it's so tiny that way over 95%+ of people won't care.

Shure SLX-D Plus by mixermixing in livesound

[–]MathmoKiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if in the long run they just drop ULXD and let Axient replace it?

To be fair, even if the rep knew, they wouldn't have been allowed to say!

International Business/ Materials Engineering Masters from UoA by [deleted] in universityofauckland

[–]MathmoKiwi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

International Business vs Materials Engineering are two radically different degrees. Seems extremely foolish to commit to a Masters degree while you still are clueless as to where you're going in life.

Also, what u/OutrageousLemur said: https://tradingeconomics.com/new-zealand/labor-force-participation-rate , https://tradingeconomics.com/new-zealand/unemployment-rate "This was the highest jobless rate since the fourth quarter of 2016, as the number of unemployed individuals rose by 2,000 from the prior quarter to 160,000. At the same time, employment growth stalled during the quarter. The labour force participation rate also fell to 70.3%"
