    Doing MATH1141 right now. Should I change to MATH1031?

    I got a combined mark in Extension 1+2 maths of 187 or 188 out of 200, don't even remember. My degree allows MATH1031/1131/1141 and this is the only maths I'll take in the entirety of my degree. I definitely don't plan to do engineering/physics/any other major that will require a lot of maths...

    MATH1141 question (general)

    I had the same questions as you, so I emailed Peter Brown about lecturers and times. This was the response I received: As I said: There are a couple of typographical errors in the timetable in the Course Handout. The Lectures for Lecture Stream 2 should be Tuesday 9:00-11am MATHEWS-B Thursday...

    Can anyone help me interpret my MATH1141 timetable and lecturers?

    Thanks guys. Got everything now. Does anyone know what kind of a lecturer Potapov is?

    Can anyone help me interpret my MATH1141 timetable and lecturers?

    I'm completely lost. I enrolled in MATH1141 and picked the second lecture stream, so my timetable shows my lectures as being on at 9am Tuesday (Mat B) and 9am Thursday (CLB8). My instructors are noted as being Dr Potapov and Prof Schief. HOWEVER I got an email from Doust saying this: "Welcome...

    I know this sounds stupid, but what equipment do you need for uni?

    Were the 300 page long lecture notes from Schief? + If I'm attending Doust's lectures, I don't have to worry about Schief's monstrosity of maths notes, right...? D: Has anyone worked out a viable system for organising maths notes yet? I was planning to print out the lecture notes beforehand...

    UNSW Accommodation Please Help!!!!

    It's possible. I got my offer for an 8 bedroom apartment last week or so because someone cancelled their room. What you should do is ring the reception every single day to ask if they have any space. That's what I did. Make sure you ask to speak to Isabella when you call them up, since she's the...

    No late round offer despite 99.95 ATAR (EAS) because I applied "too late"?

    No, but when I called the UNSW med office to ask my ranking, the guy on the phone said "okay, so your ATAR is 99.95 with EAS..." blah blah. UNSW says that no preference is given to a non-EAS student over an EAS one.

    No late round offer despite 99.95 ATAR (EAS) because I applied "too late"?

    Looking through BoS alone, I've read of people with 97 ATAR + EAS get into law in late round. I suspect that your friend with 99 ATAR didn't get in because she applied too late, like I did.

    No late round offer despite 99.95 ATAR (EAS) because I applied "too late"?

    Alright, fair enough. Didn't realise how little offers were made. Thread's over, thanks guys.

    No late round offer despite 99.95 ATAR (EAS) because I applied "too late"?

    The cut off published by the UAC for the Round 3 offers was an asterisk. That being said, I'm pretty sure it would have been 99.95 - it sure as hell wouldn't be <99.7, which means people who didn't receive a main round offer wouldn't have gotten a late round offer. Edit: Just read your post...

    No late round offer despite 99.95 ATAR (EAS) because I applied "too late"?

    My ATAR with EAS was 99.95 (this was verified by the UNSW med office). After main round, I put down UNSW combined law as my second preference after medicine, fully expecting to get a late round offer, but didn't receive one. When I called the UNSW admissions office, they confirmed that 1) late...

    UNSW Accommodation Please Help!!!!

    It's too late to change I think. All rooms have been booked, as of yesterday afternoon. I called them to ask :( If you're bothered about mixed gender rooms, you could always apply to Fig Tree Hall - gender separated floors.

    UNSW Accommodation Please Help!!!!

    You can ask for a single gender room, but if you don't specify, they usually put you in a mixed gender room.

    UNSW Accommodation Please Help!!!!

    Ah yeah sorry, just checked, Fig Tree is fully catered. Have you ruled out Colombo completely? I'm looking for a place to live on campus as well (I was signed up for Barker, moved in, then moved straight back out) and it looks like there aren't any options left except Fig Tree/Colombo at this...

    UNSW Accommodation Please Help!!!!

    To my knowledge, as of this Sunday, Colombo Hall still has rooms available for $350/week. Fig Tree Hall is still in construction, but will be ready in a couple of months, and still has rooms available - albeit at a (very) hefty price of $490/week. All rooms at the University Terraces and UNSW...

    Post Your 2014 Sem1 Timetable

    Hey guys, a bit of a silly question. I'm planning to drop optom and do law/international studies once I get a late round offer - would most of the good lect/tute times be already taken? :(
