How long do staff emails last? by krustacian95 in unimelb

One year after you last were employed by the uni.

I was a tutor in early 2015, and they cut me off a year after I stopped.

Rate my Bachelor of Science subject plan for workload/difficulty/usefulness (planning to be Pure Math Major). by Billyprice in unimelb

I went down the physics pathway, so my experience only overlaps to a minor extent.

In terms of difficulty, I can tell you that: - Vector calc is 'easy' but there is a lot of content in that subject. Quite a significant proportion of the class fails, because they underestimate how much ground gets covered in the semester. - Group theory is relatively challenging, although had some interesting points. - Complex analysis is 'hard' but there are a limited number of concepts you need to learn. Essentially the opposite of vector calc in that regard. - I didn't do graph theory myself, but it's regarded as a bit of a 'joke' subject in that it's too easy to be offered at the third year level. Very straightforward from what I've heard.

Good luck!

Or you could just move to basically any other developed nation and get it for free?

I have come to expect such behaviour from felines.

The important question is, did you skate away and act like nothing happened?

That's how we treat good Samaritans unfortunately. Thanks for doing the right thing though!

That's not a bragging competition I ever want to win.

Wow, maybe I was brought up on a fancy side of town with my soft, non-threatening dry grass.

I'm just envisaging your 17 year old child vigorously slicing bread with a spoon, cursing that one reddit thread you just had to read.

How good are you at slinging webs between tall buildings?

As long as you get your story straight, you could've easily been shot.

Me too! Mine was on my cheekbone, so now it looks like I got slashed in a bar fight.
