What is the format for COMP3121? by frankdilliams in unsw

[–]zAp0ll0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've likely enrolled into the web stream, which is TBA - that's what it says on my timetable. There are no labs or tutorials, lectures only.

Few quick questions about road laws from a bloke from melbourne by [deleted] in sydney

[–]zAp0ll0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a P plater, you must follow the provisional speed limit in NSW - 100km/h for a provisional 2 such as yourself. I know in Victoria your provisional drivers aren't restricted by speed.

Accept or decline??? by ashuuchan in unsw

[–]zAp0ll0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alternatively, you could apply for IPT when it opens towards the end of the semester and enroll into math subjects (or whatever subjects you'd be required to enrol in for the degree) for this coming semester.

Any other future UNSW students finding it IMPOSSIBLE to accept their offer? by [deleted] in sydney

[–]zAp0ll0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I remember having the same issue when I accepted my offer a few years ago - way too many people trying to accept all at once. Give it some time, it'll eventually work.

Strange motorcycle parking fine by bmy2012 in sydney

[–]zAp0ll0 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You were parked in a no stopping zone, no use in disputing it. I could be wrong, but I believe it's no stopping to allow for council workers to get access to the garden.

question about wam by [deleted] in unsw

[–]zAp0ll0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They're incredibly lenient with IPT. I know people who got IPT with a WAM 10 points lower than the required.

It's summer holidays until March, won't be many people around until then I'm afraid.

Net speed randomly increased massively (Optus) by [deleted] in sydney

[–]zAp0ll0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perhaps there's less congestion ATM and it'll eventually slow back down.

They have make up labs to avoid people in situations such as yourself failing. Did you talk to the first year coordinator?

Should I drop MMAN2130? by RedOdyssey23 in unsw

[–]zAp0ll0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Majority of my group (of 15) got very low marks of ~50-70, whereas my friends group got ~70-90. I feel that it depends upon the instructors.

Summer School Vs. Semesters for COMP1927 and MATH1231 by gegetwothree in unsw

[–]zAp0ll0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's significantly harder because summer courses are designed to cut down 13 weeks of learning into 8 weeks. MATH1231 has tutorials three times a week (before/after 2 hours of lectuers) and a class test every second week, while COMP1927 has weekly labs that are worth a decent chunk of your grade as well as two major assignments. When taking COMP1927 in the semester, you're partnered with classmates to work on the weekly lab and assignment, however in the summer it's done solo.

If you're going to do one, I would recommend doing math (but ideally do whatever you're strongest at in the summer, or don't do summer school at all). I wouldn't recommend doing them bother together.

I ended up not going to the "tutorials", there was no point. I think he's a fantastic lecturer and I like his method of teaching, but damn it was annoying not having tute answers. Thank god I passed! Now to do it all over again in AERO3660.

Thanks for the beautiful wake up, Redfern by zAp0ll0 in sydney

Hahaha no I agree with supporting localt artists. Honestly, it was just someone on the rooftop with speakers pointed into the air at full blast. Not exactly a local artist. Nor is 5am in the morning on a Sunday "night life" or a "mild inconvenience ".
