Why is there an option for 'one day off' and not 'two days off'.

I don't understand why they don't just give everyone access to the same program the actual staff do when you have to get a "staff assisted timetable" and let everyone go wild until the tute/lecture is full.

USYD's timetabling systems are positively shithouse

Gaiz! I did the exact same thing (Added and dropped a unit today).

I just got off the phone talking to a super nice and helpful lady from one of the faculties - she said that the timetables *should* have automatically updated, BUT they're probably abit slow atm, it should be sorted by the morning.

I'm 99.999% the unit changes have been processed because I just got contacted by the faculty of my new unit - so obviously its registered somewhere.

Fret not!!

(PS. Praying I retain my 3day weekend).
The likelihood of USYD's systems automatically updating anything immediately is pretty minimal.

Calm down, it takes more than a day.

It also takes more than 2 days or something for it to register with e-learning. Besides, uni hasn't even started yet.

I could get Wednesdays off... but it means two 8-5 days, one 8-4 day and a 10-4 day.

Nah.

WHY DON'T THEY LET US PICK THE CLASSES WE WANT. BAH.
Because whoever designed the system is evil.

Mine's actually alright. Providing I can go to a different tute for one of my classes (the same lecturer let us do that last semester so I think I can), then I can work tuesdays before uni and wednesdays after, which is good

Might go into uni tomorrow to see whats up, though I'm pretty sure I'm stuck with 4 days this semester.

Hey I'm on the train on my way home and just looked that my timetable is a gay 5 days! Like 8-4 every day except Friday and on
wednesdy I have a 4 hour break in the middle
of the day! So whn I get home
can I just change it to how I want? Cause I'm scared I
might stuff the hole thing up. What should I do? I wanna try an fill in that big gap in Wednesday and make a later start for
some
days?
the system's pretty self-explanatory, i'm sure you'll be able to figure it out

Ugh I thought I could get Tuesday off and one lecture only on a Monday

But then they went and cancelled the Wednesday tutes so now I have to do a workshop on Monday

Which is crap because I have a wedding to go to on march 15 in Melbourne, which is a Monday and the Education faculty is pretty hard on the whole attendance thing. Do you reckon they'd let me off if I could show them the invite or something? (I know, who gets married on a Monday, yeah my kooky Christian friends do. Woopee)

You could just take that one lecture and attend all other lectures.


And then if you get sick later on, get a doctor's certificate. They might still make you do a make-up essay but depends on the subject.

If it's a 2hr workshop do you reckon I'd still get away with that? I'm cool with missing the lecture, I just didn't think I'd have the workshop on as well.

Guess I'll just ask them when I start back eh

Excellent. Managed to find almost all my lectures and tutorials into Tuesday.

So its Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday for me. Not bad at all for my last semester

"Your timetable has difficult clashes and needs to be allocated by a timetable advisor."

I checked this and the only clash is an extremely simple one which can, ostensibly, be avoided. I'm not entirely certain why this is necessary, because it's not a lecture clash but a tutorial clash.

Did anyone else find they got this message and are questioning why it is necessary?

If we change our units of study within the next couple of weeks, will we have to get a whole new timetable? Or will it only change the affected units?
