Yeah man. Really cannot be bothered sitting this shit for the 3rd time though. Gonna get there at 8am and leave at like, 6.30 or something.

I hate Melbourne Showgrounds.

I echo your sentiments exactly. I prefer Caulfield a lot more....
Good luck for Saturday mate!!!

Yeah, less people, bigger tables, CARPET, and the fact that we were all let out at the same time made it so much easier. I remember in Melb Showgrounds it took like 30 minutes just to get out of the gate and then to the nearest train station. Oh, and then there's like 3000 more people. Not looking forward to it.

Good luck for the test! Hopefully the mob at ACER write nice questions for us.

Anyone doing Neurophysiology:Neurons and circuits, the lecture capture is neither in the 'availible' nor 'other' part of the system (where it usually says "will be available soon") Fml does this mean its not going to be uploaded? lol

EDIT: it's up. i really need to learn to be patient

Thanks mate, I'm going to need it :P
Yeh, it was a real drainer man - 8am arrival, started the exam just past 9:30 if I recall correctly? Arghh, such a tense exam.

Yeah, something like that. Maybe around 9.40 or something. I remember sitting in my chair for ages just thinking "oh shit...oh shit...oh shit" until the test started. Then in the UK test for some reason it just felt like a uni exam and I felt more non-chalant about it. I guess after you sit it once, the burden of pressure lightens up.

I would honestly rather burn all my GAMSAT preparation crap than sell it after my final sitting, but need dat $$$$.

If you need to retake a subject, how does that fit into your timetabling and the subjects you take in the semester? Like, does it replace one of your breaths, or do you overload or ?

Not sure exactly what you're asking... you need to pass 24 subjects to get your degree. If you attempt 24 subjects, pass 18 and fail 6, then they will let you repeat the 6 subjects you failed. That's why some people take 3.5 or 4 years to get their Bachelor's Degree instead of the standard 3 years.

If you're talking about the order of subjects (such as failing a prerequisite to another subject), then you will usually have to delay the next subject to a later semester whilst you are repeating the subject you failed, unless you get a prerequisite exemption from the coordinator.

It is possible to take up to 2 subjects during the Summer if you really want to catch up for the subjects you failed or need to repeat without extending your degree.

They're (supposed) to not let you overload if you've failed a subject.

summertime

What...I found summer semester quite enjoyable. Would recommend to anyone who wants a lighter load in future years. :)

Then again, if you're forced to do summer sem because you failed a subject, I guess you would be a bit sad  :P
