Where was Alannah?  Was she at the hairdresser?  I imagine that might take a whole day.

Terrifying, just like her. If she looks at you and squints, it's a sure sign you've been hexed and will die the following noon after tripping over a black cat under a ladder.
(I'm not even joking, she is the posterwoman for 'scary witch who turns cows' milk sour and makes small children fall off cliffs'.)

(Her hair's long and slightly wavy, and very witchy.)

You can book appointments to see career advisors, my friend in 2nd year said they were really helpful and helped him find out what sort of work he could do with his degree once he graduated.

Definitely the careers/employment sector first.

Commerce students society may also help you, but everyone in that society is a student like you so their information may not be 100% accurate.

It'd be like asking ATARnotes for careers advice; information is reasonably accurate but there are much more knowledgeable and reliable sources out there (like Melbourne Uni's careers people).

The Commerce Students Centre does a lot of their own careers stuff, so check there first. They should be able to help. If they're booked out however drop by the C&E centre between 12pm and 2pm from Mon-Thur for a 10 minute drop-in session, which is the best option in the short run.

You can book advice appointments online here: http://student-advising-system.unimelb.edu.au/

I just spent an unreasonable amount of time trying to find out why my biocell answer was twice what it should've been.
Turns out I thought thought the area of a circle was 2pi*r^2.

Did you get some crazy small percentage for part b like 0.005%?

 I would definitely be outraged if I knew what the area of a circle was and why that equation is incorrect. It looks okay...there's a pi in there...

I think I was larger by a factor of ten. Don't completely remember though.

Do the psych department just not release exams from previous years to the library database? Can't find any for Personality Psych.

If anyone has copies of these exams, I'd be very interested to talk to them about completely unrelated matters...

Yeah unfortunately the psych department just don't release past exams at all (usually because I think the questions are very similar year to year).
