Currently re-enrolling for next year, would it be a better idea to do 'BCMB20002 Biochemistry and Molecular Biology' in semester 1 and 'BCMB20005 Techniques in Molecular Science' in semester 2, or the other way around?

[LeviLamp]

The handbook recommends you do Biochem first, so by virtue of that I'd assume Semester 1 is the best option for Biochem?
Speaking of timetabling, I had to move my Biochem overload to first semester to avoid a prac clash with an obscure subject and completely remove 2nd year chem from next year due to a "strongly recommended" elective interrupting every single lecture, and even after changing to another subject it still manages to clash with a lecture.
I don't think the Zoology department try to coordinate around other departments, their times are abominable >_>

The handbook actually recommends you do techniques in molecular science first. o.O
but i have a friend who did biochem this year and said you dont need the knowledge from 20005..

[LeviLamp]

Hahaha, it turns out they both recommend the other subject as the one to be done first.
But given how many more people do 20004 in Semester 1, I'd be surprised if the subject was impossible too.

The good mood of everyone at college is palpable.
EVERYONE I KNOW IS SO HAPPY THE YEAR IS OVER AND THEIR EXAMS ARE DONE.
Feeling really content with this semester regardless of my final marks, I feel like I actually know what I was supposed to know and didn't just cram for the exams. I hope everyone else feels the same way and has a nice relaxing summer

@Deleted User: They should start coming out slowly in the next few days (but I'm guessing first years will have to wait a little bit due to large class sizes) but last semester it was subjects without an exam and/or later year subjects that seemed to come out at the start of release. All the results in their final revised form should be up on December 6th :>

Q n Q just realised that i dont get to do math any more after next semester. Which makes me oddly sad. So now im looking for information on a diploma of math BUT HALF THE LINKS GO TO ARCHIVED PAGES @ A @ gotta love unimelb

[nubs]

What do you want to know about the math diploma? I'm thinking about doing one too

[scribble]

haha its kay, i managed to find what i was looking for.
not sure at all whether i actually will take on the diploma though...

Has anyone here done the summer online-intensive subject "POPH30001 Indigenous Health: Is the Past Present?" - was thinking of taking it but not sure how I'd enrol in it since it runs from late Feb to late April?
