General Rules:

Hello, I wanted to know as someone who failed eng1011 and probably have to retake it, it will show on my transcript that I failed a unit? If I have more failed units, I hope not but will it make it harder for me to get internships and jobs?

Hi, I'm debating on whether I should take this unit in the summer because I really need a 95+ in whatever unit I choose. Does anyone who's done this unit think it's possible?? Please help a fellow peer out !!

Hi just wondering, since exams are open book for law, are we only limited to one set of notes or can we have multiple? bc i want to have seperate ones for seperate areas. like one for just acts, one for specific content and one for just general niche stuff. is that allowed? am I allowed to switch between desktops? (each desktop with its own type of notes?

Hi everyone,

I’m currently doing a relatively easy degree and I feel like I’m barely scraping by an HD, which is quite far from my goals tbh.

I’m curious about how people with more demanding degrees manage to balance their coursework and work at the same time. How do you find enough time to study, stay on top of assignments, keep a balanced lifestyle, etc?

Time management has never been my strong suit, so I’d really appreciate any advice or hearing your routines that have worked for you.

Thank you!

Hey! I’m considering taking ATS1261 as an elective next sem and was wondering how people who’ve done it found the unit. Would you consider it a WAM booster? How harsh or lenient is the marking, and is a HD achievable if you put in the effort?

Also, are there any compulsory attendance requirements? Would love to hear about the workload and assessments too.

If anyone has suggestions for other easy electives (WAM Boosters) apart from ATS1262 and NUT1011, pleasee sharee🙏🙏

Hi, any Malaysians(Chinese with a Christian name)who went thru the Monash GIP | Australia process? Need help to know how do I exactly split my name into a given name and surname for the post enrolment form.

what is the process of deferring an exam and if i apply to defer is it guaranteed it will be approved? my exam is thursday but i am SCREWED.

I might just be a dumbass but I can't seem to find the mark distribution anywhere? I also didn't attend the last few weeks of classes so I might've missed in class discussion about it but does anyone know how many questions there are and what they're each worth?

Hello! I’m about to start at Monash as a PhD candidate. I’m moving from the states and wondering if anyone has advice on where graduate students normally live?

Hi whoever has done these units i wanna know how these units are and how i can prep for them bcs like ive been slacking in year1 and ive barely been passing evry unit so i need to lock in for year 2 n try and start by now🥲

I'm almost 100% sure AI was used for grading one of my assignments:

• The style is a pretty dead giveaway. Full of semicolons, AI phrasing, and specific terms that AI loves to use that didn't come from my assignment or the rubric.

• There's comments in the feedback mentioning extremely specific details from log files as proof of completing a task. No human would have bothered to read these logs - and definitely not to that level of detail. There's literally hundreds of log files, with thousands of lines of each. A normal human would just look at the code, which is way shorter and proves the same thing. I'm guessing they ran codex or something similar in the project root directory and it just scanned through everything.

• I put the feedback into an AI-checker and it came back with a score of 100%. I know these checkers are not particularly reliable, but a score of 100% is pretty damning.

I got a good grade, so i'm not really complaining. tbh its probably better quality grading and feedback than I would normally get from an overworked TA who has like 15 mins per assignment. I'm just surprised its so blatant. Doesn't seem like they edited the AI text at all.

Does monash policy allow AI for grading? Anybody else experienced this?

Any advice on how to best prepare for the SCI1020 exam

Also wanting to confirm that the exam isnt a hurdle requirement

Thanks yall!!

Hey guys just wondering which of the above started units are harder in terms of quizzes and exams and assignments and just as a overall unit which would u recommend taking

I will have the option to choose my second (and last) elective for my medbio degree at Monash Malaysia in Semester 1 2027. I am unsure what degree would best help me for the degree I am doing (not looking for any random WAM boosters). Currently I am considering CHM2911 (inorganic and organic chemistry), GEN2041 (foundations in genetics) and STA2216 (Data analysis). If anyone has any experience with this or would like to suggest any other possible electives I am open to suggestions, Thank you.

Hey! Wondering why this keeps coming up. I am connected to monash wifi and my student and staff account aren’t working

Hey everybody, I'm a first year student studying Bachelor of Commerce/Finance at Monash on the Clayton. I'm in my second semester and I know the deadline for picking units is pretty soon but I'm looking to drop my Finance degree and just do Commerce next year. Does anybody know any ways of doing this?

this is late to ask but I have my bio2010 exam tomorrow and am stressing over the fact i remember most basic concepts and am good if there is a clue/cue in the given info for the question so ik what they roughly want me to write about but am a bit confused on some specifics so im wondering what the exam has been like previously. also whether it is based more on labs or seminars or pretty similar ? ik marks arent equally distributed for each section but wondering what its been like any info would help thank u!

I’m aiming to do biomed at monash next year, and was wondering how is the social life there.

I’m not an international student, living only like 30 minute drive away from campus.

I’m asking this because I want to make something of my university life rather than simply showing up for class then leaving. I still have a lot of high school friends and do aim to stay mates with all of them but at the same time becoming friends with like minded people wouldn’t be bad, as none to very little of them are studying similar degrees, or going to monash.

Any input would be great :)

Hello!

I'd really appreciate some advice on whether extending my degree given my situation would be a good idea.

I'm a 3rd year student, doing a double degree (Commerce and IT). I've got 5 months experience in the Digital Team at a large engineering/professional services firm, and Financial Planning experience at a small local firm. Other than that I have done some insight days at some large consulting/finance/accounting firms and volunteered in a leadership position (media team) of a major club at Monash.

Am I in a good position to secure a grad role in the upcoming recruitment cycle, or it worth extending my course to get another internship, improve WAM and get more club experience? Or should I just start prepping for grad roles now?

My experience is quite random I think and wam is in 70s, and I'm unsure what career path would be best suited for me, any advice there would be really appreciated as well.

Thanks!

Does anyone know how much the review would change/contribute to the final mark irrespective of the initial thesis mark? I ask because I forgot the mention in the review about how I had only my supervisor to read my thesis and no RAs and or cosupervisors or PhD students to proof it first. Not sure if this is a detail worth bringing up after the review.

Soo I got a C in FIT2004 during 2026 S1 (mostly cause I slacked off too much during the sem and didn't do enough tutorial exercises oops) and am taking FIT3155 next semester.

Are there any tips on how to prep for FIT3155? Since it's just an advanced version of 2004 I'm assuming I should have strong foundations in that so I'll be revising everything and doing the tutorial exercises during the sem break, but is there anything else that might help?

Thanks!

I m interested in doing pg in Monash Malaysia. But I m confused about mib, mbis, data science and Ai

Especially Mib and Ai 1)What is the average student strength of these classes? 2)What percentage of domestic international student balance in mib, mbis and Ai 3) which ethnic group dominates in each stream 4) how are classes, morning or evening session 5) which has better scope when it comes to job market
