Title: So....
Post by: Fyrefly on June 24, 2008, 11:45:47 am
What are my chances of getting my preferences...?
How much luck have you had with your preferences in the past?

Will I really only have 2g2 uni 3 days a week?

I do not have much faith in Alloclash... :-X

Edit: typoness ::)

I got all my first preferences last semester
(given, most of the time I had a choice between 1-2 options)

but next semester I have labs where pref 1 is 150% full, and pref 2 is 90% full atm so I'm worried about those :(

If you work things out so that your timetable works, then you should get your first preferences ....

I spent like 3 hours last semester working out my timetable so I'd get a day off, and I got all my first prefs, even though some of them were on like 160%

It's Allocate+. We're better than those UoM ... people.

Here's a trick - intentionally clash your lower preferences (ie, 3-6) and plan out your 1/2 properly.

Well... I did pretty well... only one where I didn't get 1st preference.
I got slotted into a manageable time anywayz - tis on a Wednesday morning instead of Monday.
A bit earlier, but because I car pool I have 2 b @ uni by 9am every morning anywayz (and the tute is @ 10).
I'm just happy that I only have 2g2 uni 3 days a week.

How'd u guyz all go?

I got all my first prefs, despite some being 150% full last time I dared look (I assume they'd be at about 200% near closing date)

I have 5 days a week due to having 12 auto allocated lectures, but that was my fault for doing science :P/me is looking for the thread where people posted uni timetables last sememster
