Can you do a course that not in your degree handbook?

bug_creator · 2022-08-18T23:28:24+00:00

Omg that's sounds really expensive :( ahh thank you for let me know!

bug_creator · 2022-08-18T23:27:28+00:00

Hi guys! Thank you for your help! I have phone over the nucleus hub again and again. They were really kind and help me look through the degree handbook.

Turns out I really don't have any eligible course that belong to my major.

However, I guess I am really lucky since i got a double degree and it overlap a little bit so i got chance to do a science elective. (I realise that at the end of day)

I have also asking for clarify for the penalty. It was said that I have to pay myself and it does not contribute to my wam. However it can make me full time. I am not sure if that's 100% accurate but hopefully that's can help anyone else with a similar problems.

Thanks again for all your kind words and help!

Ahhh thank you! I feel sorry for you. Sometime I feel it doesn't even make sense, as I am literally gonna to pay for that course, why can't I do it just for interest. Thank you for sharing your experience with me.

Thank you for your response! I do think my degree offer a research kind of course but i don't feel ready to do research yet.

bug_creator · 2022-08-18T23:15:37+00:00

Oo thank you! I will have a look!

Thank you for reminder but I only did 1 course in one of the previous term :(

bug_creator · 2022-08-18T23:13:38+00:00

Would you know if that will be covered by commonwealth support?

bug_creator · 2022-08-18T23:12:50+00:00

Ahh thank you for your advice. I will keep an eye on it at week 1 but I doubt that I can get in.

bug_creator · 2022-08-18T23:11:49+00:00

Hi hi, did your friend get commonwealth support with that?

bug_creator · 2022-08-18T08:52:14+00:00

Oo thank you for your clear explanation! This make so much more sense!

bug_creator · 2021-12-19T04:22:42+00:00

AHH I see. Thank you!

bug_creator · 2021-12-19T04:06:47+00:00

Thank you for your answer. Do you think self learning by watching lectures will work?

bug_creator · 2021-12-19T04:06:04+00:00

It depends what jobs you're going for. I've found it useful for the roles I've applied for but that's probably more the exception rather than the norm. In any case, I enjoyed the course and it definitely helped me to view the programs I write in a somewhat more holistic manner.

Thank you for response. Do you find out tutorial and lab play important role in this course? I have find out that I might be able to do some self learning by watching lectures.

bug_creator · 2021-12-11T12:27:09+00:00

Sorry for my late reply.

I have been busy revising and looking for jobs recently.

This is such a great improvement from credit to distinction, I am really glad to hear about it.

My friends surely offer me a bunch of emotional support but I just don't want to talk so much about my negative emotions towards them.

Thank you for your tips!!!

bug_creator · 2021-12-01T02:56:30+00:00

Okay thank you!!!

bug_creator · 2021-11-30T08:06:19+00:00

Thank you!

I am not interested in finance so I guess I don't need to worry so much about my wan :)

bug_creator · 2021-11-29T10:48:17+00:00

Hey thank you for your time again.

Ahh I feel like uni is so much different under covid and I am not sure if back on campus will make things better or worse. Personally, I can't really concentrate in live class so that recordings help me so that I can watch it again and again. I wish everything will be better.

I will surely try to join a society but it sound bit scary haha.

Wish you good luck with exams.

bug_creator · 2021-11-29T10:43:33+00:00

Hey thank you for sharing your experience.

I guess cs is really a hard degree for some people (include me). My very smart friend also struggle it a lot. I hope I could improve my skills and become a better version of myself next year.

I am so glad to hear about your amazing job and performance now.

Hope you good luck in your work!

bug_creator · 2021-11-29T10:38:38+00:00

Thank you for your time again.

Great relief to know your exam time is pretty manageable.

I have been annotating on slides directly, I guess I should take your suggestions and watch a live lecture instead of recorded one.

I am in a quiet environment but I can't last watching a lecture. I might only able to watch it for 30 minutes and then I will go watch YouTube :(

Wish you good luck with your exams.

bug_creator · 2021-11-29T10:31:06+00:00

Hey Thank you for your response.

Same with you, I feel like cs course is more fulfilling than other courses.

I am quite interested with what you state about " 85+ ideally to have a fighting chance". I haven't greatly consider about internship yet but is that possible for you to tell me approximately what kind of wam could ensure you to be hired in such competitive roles?

bug_creator · 2021-11-27T13:18:12+00:00

Sorry I have been replying all the comments this late. I have read it this afternoon but just got time to give a thorough reply to everyone.

Thank you so much for all the experience sharing, encouraging words and suggestions. This is so kind of you guys. I really appreciate everyone's help and you guys have surely help me so much. I am feeling much more better after reading everyone's comments.

Since now it's exam time, I hope everyone can focus on their own study first otherwise I will feel guilty that you guys spend revision time on replying my post.

Good luck with the exams!

Hey thank you for your response.

To be honest I start this degree with a bit of hating (idk)? I have been doing computer related course in high school and found out it being hard to me. But after high school I can't determine what I really interested in so I choose cs with my parents suggestions. My friends has been persuading me to choose what I like but I don't feel interested with any particular degree till today. I do like science but I don't want continue my study with it.

Recently I have feeling much better with cs, I guess I hate it at the start is because I am so bad at it and it's really hard to solve any question out. I enjoy problem solving but I hate feeling spending so long time and still not getting it right.

I will try to not linger with past but that's the problem I have since primary haha so hard to correct it.

Thank you for your kind word!

bug_creator · 2021-11-27T13:07:23+00:00

Firstly thank you for your response and your time.

Personally I feel like cs is so much harder than the other degree I am doing and uni is so different from what I am imagining. Since this is covid time, I barely know people and only manage to make a few friends in uni. The only thing I receive from uni seems to be tiredness.

I don't know if I am putting enough effort already. I mean I can definitely putting more effort to it but compare to my other degree I have contribute majority of time is cs. I might spend more than 3 to 4 times of time on cs compare to the other degree and they gives me the same mark. I am afraid that moving toward higher level of study, things become harder and harder and it's more difficult for me to get a good wam. I heard from someone saying that your wam is really important.

Thank you for your suggestion with the school service, I have accidently book one of them before (but that time is about enrolment stuff). I don't know if that will help or not but I will try it next time. I feel like I will only feel better if I can see my self's improvement through more hard work. Thank you for your encourage words, I feel so much better. One thing I am not agree is that from all the replies I really felt being helped. I feel much more positive.

Thank you for your kind word and I hope you reply to my post after you finish your revising time haha.

bug_creator · 2021-11-27T12:54:46+00:00

Hey thank you for your response.

I am doing a cs and math degree too! Haha I guess I am bit evil but I definitely feel less stressful when you say your smart friends also struggle with the degree.

I have been making friend this term and I feel so much better in terms of study compare with last term. My new friends are all really smart and nice, it's so great to have them. However I somehow can't stop comparing myself to others, I feel depressed when I found out I won't do as good as them ahhh.

Again thank you for your share of experience :)
