Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2016

Is it possible to do ACCT2542, first before ACCT2522, since I thought ACCT2522 would be offered in both semesters like ACCT1A and 1B? Would it be disadvantageous if I did ACCT2B before 2A? Thanks in advance.

Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2016

I finally finished my mining report. 6k words 30 pages in 1.5 weeks. That shit gave me cancer. I spent like 60 hours on it. Idk how you spent so little time on it Squareroot. Most of my peers had to throw consecutive all nighters to get that shit done. 60% of the work is searching the deep webs for the most obscure of information. If you didn't have some of the recommended texts, it would essentially double your research time.

Should be fine.

ACCT2542 doesn't really require ACCT2522 stuff.

I did 2542 2015 S2 and am doing 2522 in 2016 S1.

I've been skipping since week 1 lmao.

I attend like 4 classes/mentor meetings a week totalling 6 hours. Though, I skip to work(on assignments)/study lol. I mess around for an hour and study/work 8.

Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2016

Does anyone know of a large lab class (maybe bio or chem) in any year where students might like to use an electronic lab notebook instead of paper? They have them at USyd and UNSW might look at them too if people are willing to try them out.

Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2016

Tbh I haven't encountered those stereotypical international students maybe they're the ones hogging the study rooms at asb idk, only met the ones who are more willing to help than some local students and share resources etc.
Most of the international students I've met are eager and proficient in math and physics but when it comes to any writing or presenting task, it's like watching a toddler.

No offence but I wonder how international students get jobs, especially in engineering. Employers will get cancer reading their resumes. They have to get perfect grades or employers could easily just pick the english equivalent.

Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2016

actually, the correct answer is i have one friend who lives on campus who used to be a guy but is now a girl or something

i think he's transgender or similar


but as her want is to be a 'her' and not a 'him', then... yeah
then why is it unfortunate that they're 99% women?????

sup


would've talked more but had ~women problems~ to deal with

then why is it unfortunate that they're 99% women?????
for instance, at toga party, i was going to crash on this girl's couch

and it was going swimmingly

until some random guy started dancing with her, and then they started making out like ravenous wolves


and it's like "hmm, yeah guess that couch ain't happening anymore"

It wasn't an intended BoS meet but turns out that Shuning (very old BoSer), SD, leehuan and I were there.
