Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2016

not really if you can survive without food

even if you bring your own lunch and eat it in a 10 min break would be okahy
Cool, cause I think I'm doomed to dealing with it on Monday and I need advice

Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2016

Is it dangerous (by that I really just mean bad) to make your uni timetable consist of a 5hr block without "lunch" break in betweeen?
Eat it during class/skip a class once in a while

When you work with international students, you have to do your part and then, spend more time fixing their part...

The entire BoS community has taught me to avoid international students

I have an international student clinging into my feet. Feel like kicking him off these days.

Must suck.

Tbh when I'm in the library and in a study room the loudest noises come from international students next door

Has anyone done FINS3625 in semester 2 with Kyung Shim? And how about MATH2871? Can someone provide me some feedback please.

I'm also planning to do MATH2871.

Apparently its 4 assignments totalling 50% of the course. Then its 50% final onwards.

Ooh got an international in my group, but I'm glad he seems like a really smart guy and has fairly good communication skills.

Finally a good group.

Tell me how things go. I really need to hear a story about how an international student was beneficial.

Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2016

There's PLENTY of cases where that is, just FYI.
I believe it. I'm just yet to see one actually get explained to me. All I see right now are complaints

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.

It looks like a really useful course, man. Opportunity for SAS certification!

A couple of questions (volume depends on major), write up formally in LaTeX (preferably) and submit online or in-person depending on lecture and course.
