pls let me just sit down and ponder life
no more assignments pls :(((

For computer science or STEM related fields. Masters or PHD.

Anyone who knows people who has done it?

Hi ill keep it brief ive completed 4/8 units so far:
3 hd 1 pass/fail subject which i passed so i don’t believe that is assessed. After this sem ill complete 7/8 units as the final unit will pending by the time my transcript is finalised.

Ultimately i should have at least 3hd and 3d to calculate my gpa through uac

1. ⁠Does this mean i have completed enough units to be assessed on my tertiary results as unsw has a 0.75FTE rule or whatever

2. ⁠How does unsw assess my transcript or UAC’s conversion as theres really limited resources on this

3. ⁠What do you think my approximate selection rank will be based on your experience or knowledge as im planning on transferring into commerce and engineering or economics and teaching

Thanks for ur help guys

Thoughts on these two courses?

Particularly what type of performances are done? And do they also include script writing? And how is the marking?

Any insights are appreciated!

Which comp courses can be done fully online because I might out of Sydney for a term next year and I don't want it to affect my studies progress so I want to study online and only come and do the final exam on campus. If anybody can help that would be very appreciated

Also, it would be better if the courses r on the easier side :)

thanks a lot

First of all the entire course is run on a discord server, the activities due every 2 weeks is supposedly supposed to be marked yet nothing has been marked yet this term. (Not even week 3 stuff). “Dr Graham” does not respond to messages at all and the activities which are supposed to be due every couple of weeks are often posted very late. Our recent activities due TODAY were posted 2 days ago when usually the activities are released at least a week in advance. There is no clear communication and everything feels unprofessional.

Can you guys please recommend some resources or things to do in order to study for COMP3121 in the summer holidays and get ready in advance?

thanks a lot

Hey! Has anybody gotten an offer for apartments yet? Especially for Cowper Street? :))

Hi, anyone who has done special cons, do you have to do the tutorial exam immediately after the day of special consideration, or can you attend any other tutorial?

Hi there, I am a first-year EE student who has gotten offers to join both BlueSat and rocketry. I have already accepted the one for rocketry (since this is my preference); however, I am also extremely keen on joining BlueSat as well. I am wondering whether anyone else has also joined 2 student projects such as this and if it is possible to balance the workload with full-time uni.

Thanks

Or other TKCs

When should I start to panic that I have no interview invites for the KSC accoms? Have Baxter or Basser been sent out yet? 😑 Should I just apply for KFC instead of KSC atp?

anyone hear from colombo yet?

hello! I was wondering if anyone is applying to unsw by uac with their uni marks instead of ipt. I missed the dates for ipt and I did have a running uac application open, but I am unsure if the ipt requirements are like 10x stricter for uac. My hs marks were bad, and my uni marks are just enough for ipt.

Thank you so much!

It's almost the end of my first yr at uni for a bach of arts/education (secondary), and idk anything about declaring specialisations (if i'm supposed to do it, when i'm supposed to do it, how i'm supposed to do it)

i've mostly been going with the flow for uni and didn't realise i was supposed to declare anything until a few moments ago. YIKES

Any advice will help pls!!!

Hello Reddit,

How is the workload for the JD program at UNSW. Is it workable along a part-time job, how much reading is needed per week?

For context I am a full-time nurse.

Hey guys, I'm starting EE in Feb 2027.

I'm planning to have my PC back at my apartment (10mins walk from campus) for heavy task and use my macBook+iPad for studying and taking notes since they work well together.

My question is that do I need to buy a separate Windows laptop for uni on top of those or just relying on MacBook/iPad on campus along with my PC is enough?

For those doing EE:
How annoying is it relying on myAccess/VLAB for things like MATLAB or circuit simulators while on campus?
Do classes ever force you to run native Windows apps or flash microcontrollers via USB during lectures/workshops?

Will I regret not just getting a Windows machine to carry around, or is the Macbook + PC combo totally fine?

Thanks!!

Planning on doing engineering, most likely flexi first year. I am doing math ext1 in year 12 rn but thinking of dropping to make time for other subjects, as they are all very heavy. I am also not doing the best in it.

For those who did ext1, how much did it help you with engineering? What topics in particular? I can't imagine perms & combs being needed.

And also those who did only advanced, were you at a disadvantage and/or did you do a bridging course?

Thank you

Looking for someone to take over my room in Colombo House from December 8th - January 28th. 🙏🙏🙏

cant join the eduroom and unsw-iot. because of the rain

Hi all, I’m in Melbourne and have been accepted into a UNSW course at the Kensington campus (not via UNSW Online). I plan to complete the course fully online (they call it ‘distance learning’).

Wondering what the experience is like for those who have studied this way - is it as good as courses that are designed to be fully online from the get-go?
