I have a quick question regarding credit points and summer semester. I'm currently a 1st year enrolled in Bcom and the handbook says I require a minimum of 62.5 pts from commerce at level 2. If I complete a level 2 subject in my summer semester does that count towards the 62.5 pts?

Absolutely Doesn't matter when you do them

Thanks! I have a lot more options now that I know this.

Anyone doing Principles of Neuroscience notice that they put the MST mark up briefly then took it down about half an hour later? Wonder what's going on..

Whoops. I am too behind in Human Physiology and now when he delivers his lectures, none of it makes sense anymore.

I didn't see that :/
If you did see it, it may not have been your true result. I remember in human phys last year I had initially received a mark around 14/30 and was starting to panic, but then they said the results had been shuffled around between students because the LMS was undergoing a system upgrade...

I am the biggest/most disorganised idiot of all time.  I moved an experiment I have to do to a diff day but forgot to chase up all the loose ends of my facility bookings and now I have to be in the lab until 11pm on Tuesday and back in the lab at 6:30am on Wednesday.  Unavoidable.  I also have class BOTH OF THOSE DAYS.  I probably just shouldn't leave PDI all week...#Hons

Also, why do I have to present a 12 page Science paper that uses words like Bayesian and Log Odds Ratio.  I am so far towards not understanding anything I am reading that it took me 10 minutes to understand a single sentence because I didn't realise they were using 'estimates' as a verb, not a noun.

tldr; don't do honours

Q__________________________________________Q is the face I make whenever I realise this.
I also have an oral presentation in week 12, which means for the next two weeks I'm going to be a neurotic emotional wreck because I have to -speak in another language for 4 minutes consecutively help-

Oh wow, that's pretty impressive. You can practice on me? As I'm half German I'll assume I will understand it despite never listening to/speaking in German before in my life.

4 minutes would be heavenly! Ours is 10 and half of that is impromptu :| That said, I'm pretty sure I'm a year ahead of you with my language studies so 4 minutes is suddenly sounding less heavenly....

[LeviLamp]

You are, and also we don't practice speaking nearly enough (i.e. effectively never). I think there's a speaking class each week next year, though D:
