Hm.

It's either fall asleep in the lectures or sleep at home/do other stuff.

Fall asleep just reminds me - not looking forward to 9am starts next sem.

But then again, I'm still under the impression first year >>> every other year

I had 8am physics lectures in my first year...attended all of them. Never again, I was in zombie mode the entire day.

Never knew 8am lectures existed until now. That sounds like the worst thing in existence (and I thought 6pm was only that bit less bad than 9am)

I don't think they run them any more. Wasn't exciting times.

Hmm, the mining engineer lifestyle won't be that different from an urban one once NBN is fully implemented.

Anyone able to give insights into why FINS3625 is so popular? What's so good about it? Thoughts on the course.

I hear that ACF pretty much delves into a lot of the stuff that is applicable to investment banking (i.e. mergers and acquisitions), might be wrong though.

ACF is all about investment banking, i.e. corporate finance. It's fairly interesting and not too difficult. I'd do it in sem 2 tho, as the assessments are easier (average for our mid-sem was 54%).

That's absolutely great lol.
there goes my computer science degree unless i learn everything properly
I wouldn't worry because you can go over things in the holidays.

You should be really happy you think you'll pass.

Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2016

Why do some people take usually S1 classes in S2?? E.g. chem 1a, or computing 1?

I know I'm taking it because I had to do an intro class before going into chem, but wondering why others would.

doesn't matter when you do it
some people fail and need to retake, some take as an elective etc
