np, and

Well... I don't mind gaps at all. If I have a 4 hour gap, great - I'll allocate it between studying, eating, walking around, Unibar-ing it, lounging about, meeting up with friends, consultation with lecturers, or even finding a beanbag in the library and having a nap.

Uni is what you make of it.

This may be a stupid question but how do you change your timetable? I've tried everywhere.

You go back to the place where you enrolled. Click "Unenrol" from subjects, and then "Enrol" in them again - but just pick different class times.

 

[Squar3root]

what subjects are you ment to enrol in for semester 1 engineering? i looked online but they dont give the course codes, math1131 is all i have (and whats the difference between math1131 and 1141)

my student profile > vary enrolment > update enrolment (select the right semester) > drop or swap the course/s

Ye I guess it wouldn't be bad if I had something to do ... hopefully to hangout with a few mates (hope I make some lol), study, chill. Quite excited to start a new chapter in life haha. Have any idea how the clubs and social groups work at UNSW ? I honestly have no idea what they are other than a group of people with same interests hanging out together. Seems like a good idea but ye have no knowledge on it.

For the diff between MATH1131 and MATH1141, it's discussed in this thread:

Thanks. By "unenrol" do you mean "drop"?

Well... clubs and societies are just what you said. A group of people who share interests, hanging out.

What you should do is during O-Week, take one day to go and look deeply at the stalls. Each stall will have one or two societies advertising, and if you're interested, go up to them, have a chat, and join - they're a good way to meet new people. Probably the easiest route to starting a social life at uni.

Thanks. By "unenrol" do you mean "drop"?

Yes, sorry. Or "swap" which I forgot about.

 

[Examine]

lol i bet by like wk5 you will be skipping dem 9am lectures

View attachment 29696

can i not chose the flexiable first year?

do i have to make a critical decision now and then it's all done and dusted?

program code 3704, it's there

I'm afraid you don't have the attention for detail required in engineering you might as well drop it and just do arts now

 

[Shadowdude]

how do you know which subjects to choose?

Handbook entry.

 

[kaz1]

how do you know which subjects to choose?

for engo typically

ENG1811
ENGG1000
PHYS1121
MATH1131

for comm:

ACCT1501
MGMT1001
ECON1101
ECON120something

 

[mxp67]

Ok thanks. Looks like I'm stuck with my current timetable. If the search results come back with one result, does that mean that's all there is?
