does anyone remember the name of the program we used in high school for physics. It had cool light bulbs and stuff to build electric circuits?

Riiiiiiiiight *cough ballerina *cough *cough. Im actually planning on taking living longer next year.

Do it, it's been a bludge so far. They stretched housekeeping over 2 hours. The tutorial was just us writing our names on big pieces of paper in front of us so that the tutor could learn them.


All the tutorials do is make you realise you know nothing, I wasn't a huge fan :'(

They were a bit disorganized, he showed up without the answer sheets or a calculator, and forgot to turn the projector on ahaha. Terry's an adorable lecturer though, he's a big advantage in taking biochem during semester 2.

Hi guys, I have another workload related question.

Has anyone tried taking only three core subjects in one semester, leaving the slot for breadth to later point in time (e.g summer semester)? If yes, how was your experience, would you recommend it or not? :)

Ive managed to arrange my study plan so that ive only had to do three core subjects a semester in second year (this year) and also next year ill only have to do three core each semester. Its wonderful! Less contact hours, less stress and focusing on just three subjects is better than 4. For me personally it was a good decision.

Does anyone know what that careers thing was a couple days ago? It was the one in the hall with the massive line

Was it just an expo with some booths? It seemed interesting but I figured I would be there in the line for the better part of 2 hours.

EDIT: Or was it today? yesterday? I don't keep track of time :c
