For some of my first year subjects there are no recorded lectures. So I was wondering if I wanted to hear the content of a particular lecture again, would I be allowed to attend a different lecture (than the one allocated to me on my timetable) at some other time in the week? Can anyone go to any lecture?

Thanks

You're really only supposed to got what you are allocated but in practice the lecturer likely won't know or care.

That being said though, I think there are more productive things to do than attend the same lecture twice. If take good notes and pay attention than once should be enough. You could also download the lecture slides or voice record (I'm not sure if it's allowed but the lecturer won't find out).

Hey, does anyone here know by any chance how to unenrol/withdraw from Monash?

When offers came out, I 'accepted' my offer and created an account and filled out some details but I didn't select any units. I haven't attended any of the info days/O-week and stuff as I didn't want to go to Monash anymore...I tried looking around my.monash but I'm unsure of how to 'cancel' this thing?

Thanks

Do you fail the unit when you miss a hurdle requirement? I missed a quiz...It said 'pre-prac' quiz, but my prac class is tomorrow, but it closed today. It was for ENG1002, and I have emailed the unit coordinator.

Thanks.

In general, yes. However, I'm guessing that all of your labs combined are a hurdle in which you need more than 50% to pass? In which case, you should be fine.

Either way, e-mailing the unit coordinator here was the right move.

Hey there,
Just wondering if its possible to do a major and two minors in the Arts component of Arts/Law? Can I just use the four electives in Arts to create a second minor, or would it not 'count'?
I would be wanting to major in Literary Studies and minor in Politics and Philosophy I'm already doing Lit and Politics but was hoping to pick up Philosophy as my first elective.
Thanks!

you can't. you do do two majors or one major with two minors or one major, one minor and  4 electives.
You only have the ability to do 16 arts unit in Arts/Law.

Ohk thanks! He gave me a warning, and opened it up again. I got 100% on it which was nice haha.

Anybody know if this is possible to do with my degree:

BCiv (Hons) and BCom (Majoring in Finance, Minoring in Accounting (or Acturial Science))?

Thanks!

BCiv (Hons) and BCom (Majoring in Finance, Minoring in Accounting (or Acturial Science))?

I wouldn't recommend going into actuarial unless you want to fully commit to it as a major and go through all of the professional accreditation. If you're just after it for the maths check out an econometrics minor as well, it's a bit more practical.

you can't. you do do two majors or one major with two minors or one major, one minor and  4 electives.

Wait, so you're saying I can do the major and two minors? Sorry, a little confused!

Yeah...especially a major, and two minors in a double degree.

Question about midsemester break. Is it week 4 or 5?

Hi strawberries, apologies for the delay.  If you want to un-enrol from Monash, you will need to advise your managing faculty in writing.  The easiest way to do this is to submit an enquiry through ask.monash .
