If people have groups of friends, then join their group.

Sit with people in the lecture. Make friends with those in your tutes and then sit with them in the lecture...


friends won't come to you if you make no effort.
I'm trying the second and the third option. The third option works the best. The second option doesn't apply to my MGMT lectures because I sit in the front and everyone sits in the back. I'm not willing to compromise my front seat for more friends. ;P

Edit: Also, making friends in Finance tutorials is surprisingly hard. Nobody talks unless they're answering a question.

You like chat before the tute or maybe after... it's difficult to explain. Just try and be sociable.

Like if you have a lecture break and you've sat next to someone, then chat with them if they look kinda bored.


There are others in your classes in the same boat as you. You can take the initiative and try and get yourself out of that and have the satisfaction of a new friend, or... well, yeah.

What when I did it the whole course was multiple choice.

Also who needs friends in lectures, I don't have any friends, doing fine.

Sociable is not in my blood, haha. I'm introverted.

But I'm fine with or without friends. Unless I'm stuck in an extremely boring lecture that doesn't actually teach me anything.

Nah it takes about 2 mins to do the calculation questions, very straightforward, if you can do the beginner questions in the textbook you wont have a problem.. Spent the rest of the time procrastinating over the written answer and writing a whole page of blabber >_<
Yes, thank god! I was worried. I'm still going to study my butt off, but I'm glad that the quiz isn't too hard. But I guess the questions vary with each tutorial, so...

I wish the quiz was multiple choice. But ah well, if it's easy and mostly calculations, then... *shrug*

Exactly! Who needs friends? It's great to have them, but to be honest, once a lecture gets started, I focus wholeheartedly on what the lecturer is saying and barely talk to my friends. My friends are also busy doing the same thing. We talk to each other before and after, sometimes during the lecture. That's all.

Hahahaha why did the OP even post a thread about this? It's a commerce lecture. Chances are the lecturer just reads off the slides. Welcome to the ASB.

I don't know. To try and force myself to stop going to lectures for the first time in my life, I guess. *shrug*

But yeah, I see where you're coming from. Welcome to the ASB, haha.

Too bad you're terrified of talking to them.

I'm a girl. What I want is a class that ain't Engineering or Science with a ratio of 3:8, girls to guys. ;P

^ I say 3:8 because guys are noisy as hell sometimes. Then again, many girls just can't shut up.

Too bad you're terrified of talking to them.
Ooh, burn. Want me to put ice on it?

(Oh, but I'm a bit terrified of talking to guys too. 8'D)
