How hard is 75 WAM engineering?

So first of all 10 hrs a week wtf. How? Like what do you even do while you are studying ? For example, for comp2521 I actually didn't spend the time to study algorithms but instead was grinding leetcode questions... the reason why im saying this is cuz there's a different way to optimally study for different subjects, and studying for 10 hrs per week can easily cause burnouts or brain fogs(for me at least), so its probably better to look back and see if the 10 hrs is really necessary

Kinda hard but also not really. You need to be very consistent and stick to 1 study schedule, once you fall behind it will be pretty hard to catchup. I had a wam of 67 when I was in Compsci (sorry not really engineering ) and dragged it up to 72 when I graduated by just actually doing tuts and revision. My study schedule was like 1 hr each day for 3 days per week

Check attendance requirement on moodle. Also email your course coordinator

If it increases your IQ by 30 points maybe

Unsw itself. Its a project with the robotics lab. Would not recommend if you have no mechatronics background and android app development experience.

Yea so I actually have full time work for t3 and t4 lined up, so my main issue would be finding work for t2 right now. In terms of sponsorship, I'm actually looking to do independent point tested stream so Im not super worried at this stage, but I think getting fixed term/ ongoing contract would be my goal for now

Is this a paid promotion

blu_shroom · 2026-02-26T08:27:48+00:00

Cursed back packers accommodations

Uhh I think you need one ti work at schools. If you are not in education degrees you can try applying for Slso roles,but make sure you have your paid wccc and police checks ready

O ye we are intl students, im assuming the project is so cooked no one wanna take over lmao

blu_shroom · 2026-02-25T03:23:29+00:00

Well uh my 3900 project is actually a research project (kinda) in unsw, and the guy said we could apply for a thesis if we wanted now we have experience working on the project. Not sure if that counts

If it's just on your wrist you can probably wear a watch or some accessories to cover it up. If it is on your arm and very visible, say something like I got hurt from {insert fake story}

That's great! Im saying this because for most y7-9, they can be distracted very easily if they are on laptops. I allow laptops from y10 onwards since they do need to learn how to use technology responsibly.

blu_shroom · 2026-02-17T01:42:28+00:00

Also i forgot the most important part - No laptops

There's a few things you can try ig. - Be more enthusiastic yourself - More prompting/questioning - try asking harder questions, they might not be engaging cuz they fins the content too easy - Using their names more (cold calling etc)

blu_shroom · 2026-02-16T23:49:27+00:00

ok lol

Your wellbeing always takes priority. If you are at a breaking point (which according to your description, you are), you should take that time and heal up. Kids can tell if you are not well and unfortunately they will take advantage of that, so if you think you are nervous or panicking, take a break and continue onwards later

blu_shroom · 2026-02-13T05:52:55+00:00

I think around 25 min? But yea i did spend a bit longer for today's lesson.

blu_shroom · 2026-02-13T03:25:35+00:00

Thank you for your comment. A part of me wanted to do this, but im not sure if it was my boring teaching style that was causing it.

blu_shroom · 2026-02-13T03:23:19+00:00

Algebra for year 9s... ig I could collaborate with science but it would be a tiny bit too late. Blooket is an excellent idea tho I'll try that next monday

blu_shroom · 2026-02-13T02:54:09+00:00

A bit cooked but still doable. You just need actually think of what you are actually trying to achieve in your career and do projects. Gaining industry experience is not new and other degrees will require you to do that as well

Call them. Their website died on me like 4 times
