mine looks like this... what the fudge im meant to have 25 contact hours. this is from allocate+ when i clicked on 'my timetable' after putting preferences in
-
I'm guessing those are the lectures that you are guaranteed (as there are no other preferences?). atm for me my timetable is completely empty

They're just lectures, you haven't been allocated into the tutorials/labs yet. So far, you've only put in preferences; allocate+ is still processing them. The lectures show because those are "auto-allocated". The tutes/labs will show when the allocations are released (later in feb).
-
i dont even get anything when i click 'my timetable'
i think that just means you've been allocated in that unit, the other units you havent been allocated in yet
-
Um... what happens if you get clashes? Do you have to sort that shit out or does the uni do it automatically?
-
LOL YOU FKN NOOB
-
CRAPPY HELP ME DUDE... bout to cry
-
yeah what methodsboy said, your other tutes and stuff havent been allocated. I dont think you can do anything about your clashes, you'll just have to skip the lectures and catch up at home or something. Your 2nd year unit really fucks up everything
-
so like... how do i get a timetable? mutts is being gay, allocates being gay. fkn too hot
-
timetables aren't even out yet, you get them in like early feb. If you've put in all your preferences in allocate then thats it.
-
does it matter if your preferences clash? or does the program sort that all out so you don't get any. i just put 1 in the latest possible time, then went backwards towards 8-9am.
and can you change your timetable after they come out.
you said i might have to skip some lectures and catch up on my own... theres gotta be a way to fix that shit. as if monash made a course that is impossible to fit into a timetable

yeah it does matter lol, its not going to sort it out for you. if ur lectures clash theres nothing u can do about it lol, thats uni man
-
should i go into uni tomorrow and get someone to help me and go through allocate+ and mutts with me? i have no idea where to go or who to go to, but i remember one of the ladies saying if you need help you can come in and book a time
-
they are there because its autoallocated. for the labs you put the preferences in and wait until feb22
https://allocate.its.monash.edu.au/ when you can change it
you should right out your timetable, what times you want and just sort it out by hand or excel. it was much easier for me then using stupid mutts. then you can actually see where things clash and put your first preferences which make sense and that dont clash...
-
FYI: Classes in ORANGE are auto-allocated.

I'm helping my friend with her Arts timetable and there is an auto-allocated lecture for FRENCH running at the same time as an auto-allocated part one lecture for philosophy, is it ok to miss lectures or will she have to consider changing subjects (im really sorry if this has already been asked & answered but we are dazed and desperate to find out)
-
You'll basically have to choose between the two. Don't worry though:
1) most lectures are recorded
2) lectures don't take attendance so you won't lose marks or anything for not showing up
Just make sure you do catch up on the recordings - it can be very very easy to get behind.

Take it by ear. Realistically, she should be able to manage. She should be able to watch one of them online instead. So long as she has the discipline to watch the lecture she misses online instead, she'll be alright. Most uni students are quite lazy and don't much like attending lectures anyway.
However, if after the first few weeks she finds it isn't working out so well, it might be best to push philosophy back to second semester and bring one of her second semester subjects forward instead.
Also, some subjects might have a test held during lecture time, so just be aware of when the test is (if this happens to be the case for her subjects). She *will* need to attend that test, regardless of the clash.

Okay. Yeah we didn't know if it was a major problem missing a lecture, thanks for that ninwa.
