Re: UNSW Chit Chat Thread 2015. Most likely going to do week before O-Week or Thursday/Friday of O-Week for a meet.

Tbh I have never used course hero so I assumed it was free (fault on my part).

Re: UNSW Chit Chat Thread 2015. Great minds think alike hahahaha (never had that happen before with exact same post tbh).

Either change up a lot of things in your timetable or do a different course (that will probably not help you much either at this stage being really late) or I guess you'll have to deal with it unfortunately.

Re: UNSW Chit Chat Thread 2015. FM Assist.

Re: UNSW Chit Chat Thread 2015. Can't wait until my ID expires and I have to go get a new one. My current picture is really terrible. Hopefully this is legit and we can upload our picture beforehand as I'm pretty sure it will be just as terrible the next time if I try to get my photo done at...

"Beta sources are ideal" Ideal for what? You should change that wording and state what it is ideal for. Simply saying it is a balance of not too penetrating and penetrating a certain amount does not mean it is ideal for some particular use. Also the use for Strontium-90 that you have put up is...

Physics can be a very good combo with Electrical Engineering if you do the correct Physics courses to complement. There is a lot of basic theory in Electrical Engineering which can be covered in Physics. In saying that, you can expand into a few minor technicalities which may be somewhat...

Wait what. I always found them to be alright. I thought the chips are of good quality compared to other chips that I have had before. Maybe the person working there on that day might have been sick or something.

Tbh there probably is a way to get away with going to uni once a week on 12 contact hour timetables. Will still be a 2 day timetable but you could probably skip one day or something and watch lectures at home.

Cobalt-60 does decay into Nickel-60 by beta decay, where the Nickel-60 nucleus emits gamma rays. So Cobalt-60 is still a great source of gamma rays. Although one could argue that you could use Technetium-99m as a gamma ray source, Cobalt-60 has a much longer half-life and so it is a bit easier...

I still think going to get your student id before O-Week is best.

Is that a dead bird?

Overall it is fine. Quite a few gaps. Do you think that you are ok with the gaps in general? If so then you should be fine.

This is generally what happens. You get to O-Week, a bunch of crap is in your face and everything looks interesting. What do you do? You leave on the day joining over 10 societies. This isn't a bad idea actually as you then know what you want to do and eventually you will find the perfect...

Labs are usually pretty important so make sure that you can actually attend that lab. I suggest changing the time if you can't make it to the lab physically. Back last year I had a Wednesday morning lab that was cancelled and had to move it to Friday 5 pm to 7 pm. At first I hated the thought...

There's also Ole which I find better personally. Also, you can take a short bus trip for Ole and Ogalo. I used to do that on mymulti2s.

The tutor is being subjective. You need to decide yourself if Physics is something you can cope with. Also, you are currently on 12 units so you can't drop until the end of this year at the least. Do you have any other subjects in mind which you can switch to now instead of Physics which you...

Go to O-week and check out all the student societies and groups there. You will get to see so many different societies and get to join whichever one you like. If you feel that you want to make a new society, then why not make one of your own? You can do that via ARC.

No. The tutorials are for different components of the course. You will have two 20/25 minute exams in the Tuesday tutorial and two in the Thursday tutorial for the whole semester.
