Why do people wear suits to uni ? :S

Not as surprising as when people don't wear anything.

Is it possible to swap subjects still? Principles of Business Law was so so boring!

Yes.

Census Date

The census date for a subject is the last date that a person can withdraw from that subject without incurring fee liabilities. For Australian students in fee places who are eligible for FEE-HELP, the census date for the subject is the closing date for the requesting FEE-HELP assistance. For Australian students in Commonwealth Supported Places (CSP) who are eligible for HECS-HELP, the census date for the subject is the closing date for requesting HECS-HELP.

Am I allowed to go to a different tute to what is on my timetable? I tried making it official by changing the tute time, but I can't select it. Is there any way I can arrange with both tutors a way to get into the other tute?

Thanks!

If your changing to a tute with the same tutor, then yes according to my professor if the tutor allows it. If not, nah man.

[werdna]

Alright awesome. I think it's the same tutor, the session I want to get into is straight after the timetabled one and it's in the same room so hopefully it's the same tutor. Thanks.

Yup, silent study area on top floor was 80% full at around 3pm hahaha

[Peanuts11]

Be honest, don't lie. Should I be studying to that extent already?

[Russ]

Yes.

(the answer to the question "do I have to" is different)

[86]

Seriously? I'm not studying to that extent, but I am doing the prereading and so forth. Adequate?

[Russ]

Depends slightly on what they're actually doing and what their goals are and how they relate to yours.

But if you've had a lecture then yes, you should be sitting down and revising it before the next lecture.

Like I said though, you don't have to do this, you just have to live with the guilt of not doing it (don't worry, it's really easy to!)

Hey guys, question for physics.. from lms assessment.

'Homework exercies
There will be some online homework each week. These exercises will contribute 15% to your final mark for physics and provide feedback on your progress.'

Is htis the problem solving sheets that can be found on the lms? Or is it something else.. I can't seem to find it.
-_- If it is, how do we go about submitting it and stuff?
