Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread (2011) The university read this thread. http://community.boredofstudies.org/showthread.php?t=255681

By the end of 2nd week, about a quarter will give up going to lectures. Guaranteed.

Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread (2011) Argh, my lecturer set textbooks which don't seem to be published anymore.

Pen & Paper

Bit odd that they still aren't up. I could have sworn that they had them up by now last year.

Yep. Got the notification on Wednesday and picked it up the next day.

It is fine. I would even suggest that would be a better option rather than buying locally considering the potential savings.

Similarly, check your faculty's handbook as sometimes they list textbooks under the UoS sub-sections.

Best advice would be that if you are able to catch public transport, avoid driving. Parking on-campus is exorbitant (e.g. $20+). At Broadway, the first 3 hours are free.

Aren't you able to go to MyUni ----> Student Administration -----> Enrolment Variations 2011 and change your units there?

You able to take your timetable to an advisor during the first week of university as well.

Merewether is the main building for students in the E&B faculty and ~50% are Asian. Basically if you want to have UNSW experience, go to Merewether.

Pretty sure that's Carslaw.
