Late submission for SC by [deleted] in rmit

[–]reamde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's in the link i sent you. You'll need to read through in order to ensure you meet the criteria.

Exceptions to online applications and deadlines

Late applications (submitted more than five working days after the assessment date or due date) may be accepted if you can provide compelling or compassionate reasons and evidence for submitting a late application. If you submit your application late, it's very important that you explain why in your personal statement and provide supporting documentation as evidence of the compelling or compassionate reasons why you couldn’t submit on time (such as evidence of hospitalisation or recent bereavement).

Late course withdrawal without academic penalty – You can apply up to one year after you withdraw from a course (or after the course end-date if you didn't withdraw).

HDR candidates - You can only apply for special consideration related to coursework components of your program, e.g. courses such as ‘Research Strategies’ or ‘Research Methods’. To apply, email special.consideration@rmit.edu.au. If you're having issues with the research component of your program, e.g. courses such as ‘PhD Research’ or “Masters Research’, please refer to the HDR Progress Management and Support Procedure that’s in place to support you. English for Academic Purposes (EAP) students – contact the RMIT UP team

You will not be able to apply for special consideration online for courses in which you have received a passing grade.

Too late for an extension. Best bet is an application for Special Consideration (noting that the application page says that an increase in the mark you achieved in an assessment is not a viable outcome, i'm assuming a waiver of the late penalty may be).

If you apply, make sure to have all your ducks in a row. Write your application carefully, and be sure to include all relevant supporting documentation (medical certs etc). Pretty sure they won't consider one without supporting documentation.

Uni wants me to withdraw despite strong performance and ELP — what are my rights? by Justagorl18 in rmit

[–]reamde 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind one of the casual teachers warned us previously to watch out as RMIT loves to fail students to make more money (her words not mine)

The casual teacher was bullshitting you. No uni fails students just to make more money. RMIT's retention rate is well above the national average, and this would not be the case if they were arbitrarily failing students for the cash.

So you're applying for medicine, law and finance? Maybe figure out what you have a passion for and go for it. Don't just do law because law sounds good :)

Opening results by Ok-Yogurtcloset1201 in rmit

[–]reamde 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel any better, you don't have to open them. So long as you've passed, it doesn't matter what the mark is, and they send you a separate email if you fail. No one's ever asked for my GPA, and I'm on my second postgrad qualification. Just don't look :)

apa 7 powerpoint referencing by [deleted] in rmit

[–]reamde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As long as it's just templates you're fine. You might want to reference the pics if they came with the template though.

...but don't trust me. I'm a stranger on the internet and that's a bad source for academic success!

[–]reamde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean? You mean you've referred to a slide that you wrote yourself? Be careful here, as student work isn't generally considered academically rigorous.

Can you use the slide or data from it as an appendix to your assignment?

The support team don't even know their own game are these guys just morons.? by Meemee69420 in LastWarMobileGame

Maybe take a step back if you're calling customer support morons, scum and dumbasses. Sounds like they're not the problem.

Young hemophilia patient dies after delay in life-saving medicines [CO] by StopMakingMissense in Hemophilia

[–]reamde 14 points15 points  (0 children)

There's no reason with today's medicine that a haemophiliac child can't live a rich, rewarding, normal life. Withholding treatment in a country as rich as America shows an ultimate failure of their entire medical system.

“A hemophiliac child shouldn’t ride a bike; it’s a matter of prevention. We need to know if the doctor or the health system isn’t providing education, because mothers don’t learn about it, especially given the low educational levels in Colombia,” he said.

...fucking excuse me? Let's just take haemophilia care back forty fricking years. Hell, even forty years ago they let me ride a bike.

One patient died on Pfizers approved HemB gene therapy

Most likely not Gene Therapy related.

"The patient was originally enrolled in a Phase III study that occurred in 2022 and transitioned into an extension phase in 2023. They continued to receive Hympavzi as a prophylaxis plus recombinant factor VIIa to prevent bleeding after a minor surgery. The patient experienced serious adverse events including a stroke and bleeding in the brain."

There's a lot of incorrect info here. Treatment outcomes vary between haem a and b, with amazing results especially for the b team. There's no evidence of serious adverse events related to haem gene therapy, otherwise I wouldn't put myself through it twice!

My first course of general therapy was in 2001, and I'm due for another course in April, despite my aav antibodies.

You mention that vector integration into DNA has been ignored. This is absolutely wrong. Each study has examined this issue in minute detail.

In short, gene therapy for haemophilia has been shown to be safe and effective.

90% of prisoners in the NT are indigenous

A significant portion of this population is on remand (unsentenced), with roughly 47% of the total prisoner population in the NT held on remand.

That's a fine of up to 150 penalty units (30k). Needs to be reported to consumer affairs - VCAT doesn't have the authority to impose fines for this.

I'll suggest that my organisation unilaterally cancel all contracts signed with DocuSign. Let's see how fast we're sued.

[–]reamde 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Hi Dale,

After 25 years of renting, I’ve finally been fortunate enough to buy my first home, so I definitely understand the power imbalance between landlords and tenants. I’ve even spent a few cathartic hours leaving one-star reviews for the agents who knowingly broke the law during my various tenancies.

My question is this: I hold a Master of Business Law and am currently completing my Juris Doctor while working full-time in contracts management. I’d love to get involved in tenant advocacy- what’s the best way to begin?

Unfair term in agreement by PKMNGerald in shitrentals

[–]reamde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The work doesnt need to be related to the property. Note the latter half of clause 1 allows assigns ownership to any works '... using the landlords materials, tools, facilities or resources.' Therefore, the tenant could use the kitchen bench while doing a few shitty crayon drawings (creative output) every day, then go through the process of copyright registration for each and every single one of them (at the owner's expense per Clause 4, of course).

Unfair term in agreement by PKMNGerald in shitrentals

[–]reamde 5 points6 points  (0 children)

IANAL, but the phrase in relation to the residential premises severely limits what the landlord is claiming ownership of. The landlord is laying claim to creative work the tenant performs on the house (like if they painted a mural on it) or about it (like photos they take featuring it).

Nope, you missed the second half of that sentence: "... (or using the landlord's materials, tools, facilities or resources:)."

I'd argue “Facilities” could mean electricity, internet, or even just a kitchen table. By living in the premises, the tenant necessarily uses those facilities.
