what if you do all the readings for the subject but go to no lectures ?
Pigs fly. But seriously, what do you think happens given that attendance at lectures is not compulsory?

There are lots of threads here about how GPA is calculated for medicine. Otherwise it is not calculated.

Because everyone here who asks for GPA calculations are asking because of Med *runs*

Does anyone know where I can get the solutions to past exams?(Calc 2, Lin Alg, Physics) There's a notice on the LMS saying they will be available after the end of sem but I would like to start before that. cheers

Alex, most of the time we don't use a GPA calculation like Monash so it tends to only be a relevant term for graduate applications (like Med...).  Usually, if we just want to know where we sit, we would use our % average rather than a GPA type figure.  But depending on where you want to apply, it can differ.  I'd check the website for the graduate department!  But if you're just asking out of general interest, you would just refer to your overall average in your course eg 80%

The GPA most Melbourne students use is straight averages from what I've heard.

I didn't think she was too bad considering she had 9 months(?) maternity leave. But any lecturer in the same subject as Charles is going to look crap just because of how good he is :P
