Even if you don't like studying algorithms its useful to learn.

Waiting to do that myself.

Can be boring, but probably quite relevant if you don't know much about databases, and is useful in the real world where a lot of things are based on databases.

Only if you have an interest in learning about networks, otherwise you might find this a bit technical and dry.

Its interesting if you've never done AI before, but only teaches very basic concepts in AI.

Good course to do, you learn quite a bit. I'm doing advanced graphics this session.

Zero programming subject - designing GUIs and interfaces on paper, mock ups, etc. You might not like this if you are a technical person and don't like writing critiques and documents about interfaces.

You could take a look at COMP4xxx subjects too, pretty sure they can count towards your 24 uoc you need to graduate. I'm only taking COMP3121 1st semester, COMP3111 and another one 2nd semester and most likely COMP4141 over summer. COMP4141 is the one i look forward to the most.

in order to do honours I need to do 6x lv3 courses, which leaves me with only 2 subjects left, which I would prefer to be something other than comp... lol so really i can onli look at lv3 courses

I was under the impression that COMP4xxx counts as level 3. And isnt it only 5 courses? (COMP3111 core plus 24 uoc of electives)
