What does editing our timetable look like, anyhow? Do I have to sift through those god awful lists?

Oh ok. I'm probably gonna keep my lectures for marketing the same. I'm aiming for three days, nothing before 10, nothing after 4. Does anybody know how changing it works? Is it whoever gets in first gets their pick, or what?

i was just about to ask you if you knew how the changing works...i have no idea lolol.

You should have a gander at the O-Week thread.

I'm just gonna go to the compulsory things, and some info sessions to fill in the gaps.

I'm sorry, I just always wanted to use the word gander.

Yeah you can change out of it. But the chances are, if you change out of that timeslot and decide you want to go back to having that time at a later date, you won't get back in.

No,  only tomorrow when you get to change, or maybe tonight at 11pm or so....
Title: Re: UoM Timetables

Yeah I think it opens for changes at 12am tonight.

I am really annoyed because I changed one of my subjects almost two weeks ago and it still hasn't been approved. Because of that, there's a subject on my timetable that I'm not even doing! I rang the student centre about it yesterday and they were like, "we're trying to get to it but we have about 5000 other requests etc". Argh, so annoying.

I changed one of my breadths last night after timetables came out, and just received a confirmation email of approval. My new subject also appears on my newest timetable instead of the old one. Did you change your subject via the 'admin' tab -> add/drop/change subject tool from your student portal? Maybe try again.
Title: Re: UoM Timetables
Post by: Nick on February 19, 2009, 11:42:36 am
Yeah I changed it through that. Maybe it's just the Arts student centre that has a huge backlog of requests to change subjects?

Post by: iamdan08 on February 19, 2009, 12:13:49 pm
Just a question...when the timetables are open for changing, is it first in best dressed? Like will we have to wait till midnight tonight to give ourselves the best chances of getting into the times we want?

Definately some room for improvement in my timetable. Currently I'm going in everyday which I'd really rather not do, and more than half my lectures/tutes start at 4pm or later.

I think I'm going to try to fit as much in on monday, tuesday and wednesday as I can, to free up the weekend for study and recreation.

round 1 offers

so yeah, i'd guess commerce is so quick cos we don't have as many students.

I had a similar problem. I added my breadth subjects in on Monday and the change still wasn't approved today. I went to Melb Uni Science Student Centre to sort out the issue today (as I was in the city anyway), and the guy at the desk approved the subjects on the spot :S If it hasn't been approved by tomorrow, maybe you should go and speak to the student centre. It takes them about 2 seconds to approve the subjects!
Now I have to change my subjects again :( and if they're not approved by tomorrow morning, I will go to the student centre again. I don't want to end up with a crap timetable.

How come theres a guy there who can approve?? The last time I went, she said she didnt know what to do, so she wrote down my problem on a bit of paper and said she would pass it to a student adviser to look at (The bit of paper probably got lost some how...)

I had one of my subjects for which I did not have the prerequisites for "approved" by the system.
Should I stay in the subject or enrol out of it?

I went between 12 and 2, when there is a student adviser at the student centre desk. My subjects in the Portal homepage/enrolment details and add/drop/change subjects were different, so I just went in and he said he could fix it on the spot. I asked about changing my subjects again. He said that if I did it this evening, they "should" be approved by tomorrow. If they're not, I will go in again and demand that they approve them! Don't want to wait any longer, in case all my classes fill up!

A large part of me is dying on the inside.

So what would you guys recommend? Spread the 9-6 days over to Thursdays and Fridays where I only have 2 hours? Or try to cram Thursday and Friday if possible onto Monday or something so I have 2 days free?

Yes the LMS.
One hour after the lecturer has finished his lecture, the audio recording goes on lms - available for download so you can listen to them on itunes or your ipod.

Not all subjects have audio lectures though. Other subjects I know of that have audio lectures are finance, microeconomics and biology.

For the "Communitities in which you are participating in thing" I have "Just Finance" (due to being enrolled in Finance 1 last year) even though im an eng student.

In relation to the audios/podcasts thing, as far as I know, they only have audio recordings (so mp3)...well, so far in the subjects that have those kind of electronic tools
Title: Re: UoM Timetables
Post by: champorado on February 19, 2009, 10:01:09 pm
Ah, it must be because of my japanese, then.

Those mp3s, though, are they only made up of lecture recordings? When I said podcasts, I was referring to the one costargh put up in some other thread. It was a lecturer dude, and he was talking about upcoming assesments, schedule changes, it had interviews with people for extra curricular activities as well as some interesting facts. He also went over some concepts covered in recent lectures, I guess. It even had nice musical interludes in between each segment, iirc. :D

you click on the subject/timeslot to edit it and the other streams of that subject show up with how full they are.

If there isn't a clash and they aren't full then you just click on the timeslot you want.

It's self explanatory - you'll see when it opens for editing.

Well... fairly satisfied with my timetable so far.

I got Wednesdays off, and only have to come in for 2 hours on monday and 1 hour on friday so that's not bad. Fairly full on Tuesday and Thursday but I guess that's expected.

Well I'm fucking over this alloc8 bullshit I'm going to get some sleep.

Good luck guys hope you get what you want.

Also, one of my subjects is a level 2 breadth subject which appears under University breadth subjects but is listed by the Faculty of Medicine. On the SIS site it says the Uni breadth subjects should appear on the timetable, but on my actual timetable is has "Not of Alloc8" written next to the subject. How do I choose tute/lecture times for this subject?
Title: Re: UoM Timetables
Post by: champorado on February 20, 2009, 09:31:27 am
Question
How do I sign up for my classes?

Answer..
The majority of subjects use Alloc8 to sign up for your classes. The remainder require you to manually sign up for your classes. Contact the teaching department of your subject to find out how this is done.

does that help at all?

iirc, they won't help for reasons like that. i'll try and find a link.

Considering I have to go everyday, due to stupid Calculus 2 on Mon, Wed, Fri, and Intro Micr 102 on Tues, Thurs, I have chosen to equally space it out. I have came up with two variants.

Timetable 1 - start everyday at 11am, and finish at 2pm on 2 days, and 3pm on 3 days. No more than 3 hours per day.

(http://img22.imageshack.us/img22/1060/untitled2my1.jpg)

Timetable 2 - start Mon and Tues at 10am finish and finish at 12pm (if Transition 625 is really not necessary on Tues), Thurs just moved the 2pm lecture to 10am, enabling me to finish at 1pm rather than 3pm. Wed and Fri same as above. No more than 3 hours per day as well.

(http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/6730/untitled1os4.jpg)

Right now, I've got set my timetable as the second one.....

But I'd still rather free days!  :tickedoff:

thanks. It's strange though... on the handbook site it says two 1 hour lectures per week and one 1 hour tute per week.. but on the sis timetable site, it says lecture monday and wednesday at 1... and then it has this for the tute:
"800205 W01/01 06th & 20th Mar Friday 1:00pm - 2:00pm Th:ERC-Charles Pearson Theatre 1 hour"
Does that mean that I only have tutes on the 6th and 20th of March, or I start tutes then, or will the tute times changes for the other weeks... I'm confused

- Only 7 hours total on Monday/Thursday/Friday.
- Earliest I have to go is 10am.
- Only stay past 3pm for one day.

BUT as it stands, if I go to "transition to commerce" I'll be there for 5 straight hours of lectures on tuesday afternoons.

Quick question for those UoM'ers who are in their second year or higher....

From experience, is it better to have a tutorial before or after a lecture?

I can't change anything on my one, but I'd like to know about this as well. Besides Japanese, most of my tutes are before their lectures in the week, with my marketing tute falling in between the two lectures. How does a tute function if some of the people have already been to that subject's lecture, while others haven't?

Good for you! Right now I've got one two-hour gap and one three-hour gap. If that guy pulls through, though, I should only have 2x2-hour gaps. It should look something like this:

I'm planning to offset the Wednesday gap by doing that mentoring thing. I don't think it was really geared towards someone like me, though. Besides a Russel, I'm the only one with a non-Asian name on the list. ;D

It really sucks. Even if I take a diploma, I'm still only allowed to do 18 subjects. I'd be doing 11 subjects outside my faculty, but that still wouldn't be enough. I thought the whole point was to broaden our learning. How much farther can you go than taking a diploma!? I can still double 'major' (going by Melbourne's fruity system [I'd only be doing 4 subjects in that field]), but I would've wanted to go into the other field a bit more deeply.

Yeh, it seems a bit weird.

Like, they are really limiting the knowledge you will be exposed to in your area of specialisation.

It's only in hindsight that I realise how much of a blessing not getting 25 in methods was :)

Why did you opt with UoM (ie. why did you put UoM above Monash Commerce?)

There's always honours to better your understanding if you've only done minimal subjects in an area.

Indeed it does. Student Portal isn't even loading up for me.

But at least my LMS is working :P (but it still has my semester 2 and summer subjects listed :( )

I've looked at my 'course outline' again, and I've done some rearranging. I've managed to cram it all into 3.5 years.

A bit silly since the subjects will probably change (the semesters they're offered in, or what have you), but it's nice to know it won't take the 4 years I initially thought it would. The honours thing lumps together marketing and management, so I wouldn't want to do that. Who knows, I might end up hating accounting, or marketing, or japanese and major in eco/finance or something, but I suppose that's what semester 1 is for. :)

squance, iirc, on that lms site, it said the new subjects would go up on the 23rd.

Sorry I don't quite understand. If you want to, are you allowed to extend your degree to fit in more subjects?? Also, will you be doing Business Finance during the summer? I heard if you do this you have to pay full fee which would be something around $2500. Does that sounds correct?
Title: Re: UoM Timetables
Post by: champorado on February 23, 2009, 01:10:52 pm
You don't really extend your degree. What I'm doing (or intending to do) is taking a diploma, which will add to the time I will be at university. Yes, currently Business Finance is offered in the summer (I hope that doesn't change), and I would have to take it then to fit everything in.

Is it really risky to move from one overfull class to another overfull class? I want to change my Psych 5pm one to the earlier session.

You'll just get an error if you try moving it.

I went there today. They said my timetable was fine, and then they changed it without telling me. Now I've got five hours in a row on Wednesday. Yippee!

Ooo, so sorry. I remember trying to do it with one of my classes last week, but it didn't work. I just tried it with my transition lecture, and I managed to change into an overfull one. I just can't change back into my old one (it doesn't really matter which one I go to, anyway).

edit: maybe it varies from subject to subject?

Curious but how do they even know if you've attended the lecture or not? I know for some/all subjects attendance is required.. So how would they know if I switched to the afternoon one unofficially?

Also, has anyone ever been able to go to a lecture for a subject that they don't even do? Is it easy to get caught out?

The lecturer wouldn't know whether or not you attended the lecture or not unless the class size was pretty small. They wouldn't know if you switched to another lecture. I did it all the time last year for my classes...All lectures are the same..

And yes, I have been to a lecture that I wasn't enrolled in. Again, its not easy to get caught out unless the class size is very small and the lecturer knows you from tutes.

I need a time-warp thing like Hermione from Harry Potter. Then I can have 2 days of uni and funtime for the rest of my week.

They don't take attendance in lectures, so moving to another stream unofficially should be fine. As far as sitting in on lectures for subjects you don't take, I have and many of my friends have, people don't care as long as you aren't disturbing others.

It depends on the subject.
For Psychology, i know the lecturers will definitely NOT run the tutes.

Just to confirm, for Commerce, tutorials for all subjects are not running first week, with the exception of Introduction to Microeconomics, in which tutes are running and they are just doing icebreaker type activities.
