Attendance requirement and lectures
« on: February 25, 2011, 03:26:30 pm »

When a course says there is an 80% minimum attendance requirement for classes, does that include lectures? Because my breadth subject has 1 lecture, 1 practical, and 2 tutorials. I can attend everything but the lecture because it clashes with my core subjects, and my friend told me that I could just download the lecture recording.

This is for Chinese 2E (CHIN10007)

Basically what I'm asking is if I can just skip all the lectures and just listen to lecture recordings instead.
2009
~ Methods (Non-CAS) [48 --> 49.4]

2010
~ Spesh [50 --> 51.6]
~ Physics [50 --> 50]
~ Chem [43 --> 46.5]
~ English [46 --> 46.2]
~ UMEP Maths [5.0]

2010 ATAR: 99.90
Aggregate 206.8

They usually do not record attendance in lectures, so it would not matter if you didn't go to them.
But I'm not 100% sure about chinese.

From my understanding, it should be just tutorials/pracs/seminars and classes where attendance is recorded.

If lecture attendance is recorded/not optional you'll be specifically informed of it because the default state is for it to be optional

Japanese 4A has marked attendance >_>

But most subjects do not.

yes I'm pretty sure ALL subjects count towards your GPA. Because apparently we need to be good in all fields....

It depends on what postgrad course you're drying to get into. Most courses don't even use GPA.
