    FINAL Semester 2 Exam Timetable

    oops, my [/troll] tag in html was gone :p Well it's because I do software engineering and all of a sudden they introduce something that really seems out of the picture in terms of what you'd expect out of "software engineering" :/ while seng 1A and seng2A is like a cold shower in terms of your...

    FINAL Semester 2 Exam Timetable

    Yeah, it's too low level for software engineering. I hate low level things, it's only for insignificant people only </troll> but yeah, I also reckon it's really unlikely i'll ever touch these again. right now just going through lecture notes :/

    2004 world academic ranking of universities -- top 50 universities in the world

    whoa some thread necromancy in here Also uni really depends on the kind of person you are. Are you a psychopath? As a fellow psychopath, I have found UNSW to be masochistically satisfying. Pardon myself as I attempt, however unsuccessfully, to display an elegant demonstration of my...

    how do i interpret all this info

    I kept hearing that because of a "common first year" program, you can get to any engineering with just 85 UAI or something like that. Well, its because you don't get B, and seng3XXX <-- just coding anyways. Oh and I heard from the higher ups that next year, the IS department would be out...

    how do i interpret all this info

    That's because these most people you know are mostly 2nd year students? My comp 1B tutor (who did software engineering) really liked it. The only reason 2nd year and 1st year students don't like seng is because of the amount of documentation they get to do. Compare this to 3rd year, where the...

    Soft Eng / Commerce =D

    Yeah, once upon a time, me and my seng team was on the labs until 12:00 at night finishing up one of the deliverables. As the labs closed and we went out, we realised that other people who went out were also doing seng, but 3rd year ones :p and yeah, i have to take care of those applications :(

    Soft Eng / Commerce =D

    There's plenty of soft/eng commerce people. Actually, I think that's the majority of the soft eng double degree'ers.. I was about to do commerce until I did acct 1A, and, well I changed my mind. But then I'm about to change my mind again, and probably resume commerce next year :/ As for...

    if i can remember, ~cmac908/et oh, and last time I played quake (i made a vow not to play these 3D games ever again this semester), I got kicked (more like being asked to get off because a girl needs to use the computer), so yeah, I thought playing games == increase chance of losing the...

    Accomodation @ UNSW

    I "sneaked" into new college (and entered many times with permission) back when one of my seng teammates lived there. It looks like a pretty friendly place, very nice atmosphere. Rooms are pretty small though, but I guess that's expected of colleges

    UNSW open day

    I guess today I learnt a new generalisation ;) to be honest though, seems like engineering or some other uni is more right for you. Maybe arts? Commerce (and law/medicine?) is probably not the right choice for you

    Marking of COMP assignments

    That whole thing is an output from a diff command, which is used to find differences between two files. Most likely one output is yours and the other one is the "expected" output. While I don't use diff much, the 1,3c1,3 I think means lines 1-3 was different with the other version's line 1-3...
