Thanks!

Ancient Cultures 2, Renaissance Europe, Nations at war: The twentieth century, and Time, self, mind (Introduction to Philosophy B) is the plan. Hella excited about taking three history subjects!

What did you think of TSM?

What did you think of TSM?

I'm sure she'll be willing to answer this at the end of next semester.

Finished all my exams!!!
So relieved!! (had 3 within a 24hr time block haha)

I don't feel I did too well though. But I hope I did okay

Three in 24 hours is bloody brutal. Did you have two on one day, and then one the following morning?

Congrats for finishing!

wish i had that, hate having spread out exams motivates me if theyre like all in the same block, day after day or with minimal breaks (have around 3 days break between each this sem, extremely annoying)

I've had a bit of a love-hate relationship with it, I can't really say why, I think just because, what I really enjoyed about VCE Philosophy was reading actual texts from philosophers. Life, death, and morality is more an overview of various philosophical ideas and concepts, with only one prescribed text.

Also four weeks of Trolley drove me up the wall.

Have y'all finished exams?

[www]

Have y'all finished exams?

Completely forgot to update, yes! Finished my final exam on the 15th. Feeling good about my first two, feeling so-so about my last one.

Also came to the decision to not continue Linguistics as a major or a minor after much deliberation (DON'T HURT ME). Will be moving on with Psychology/Korean studies (undecided major). The assignments were fairly easy, but when I found myself having to revise/study for Linguistics, I just felt like this was not for me. I definitely do still have an interest for Linguistics, just not at a deep uni level of study.

Any unit recommendations? I was thinking of picking up Time, self and mind in the flexible mode of study. I used the will.io timetable thing to check it against my other units if I were to take it on-campus, but it caused some issues. Any advice about how to approach flexible study would be good too!

Have y'all finished exams?

Yes! Finished on the 7th. Holidays have been lovely so far, I'm feeling good and productive.

I second this sentiment. Please don't hurt us. D:

@www and Coffee:

I mean, I'm not angry. Just disappointed.

Nah, fair calls - if it's not for you, it's not for you! IMO first year Ling was definitely the least enjoyable, though.

So drained from my exams.

I love my math but multivariable calculus? That shit's ridiculously insane. Feel like it's my bane in maths tbh.

Oh shit, really? Is it just vector calc you're struggling with, or partial derivatives and multiple integrals, too? Because the latter should work just like 1D calc, unless UNSW is teaching it weirdly. O.o

Are you all done now, Rui?
