oh god, whatever you do, dont tell student connect that youre scared you're going to fail everything. i said it jokingly and had the science student center on my back for en entire semester.
"I'm concerned you're going to fail your classes. you should really consider going part time."
"I really don't think I'm at the risk of failing anything"
"THATS WHAT THEY ALL SAY. you should take a gap year"
wut.
Okay I will just tell them HOW AWESOME I AM ;D

does anyone know how to book for appointment with student connect?

They'll contact you and tell you how. They boast that they have an interview with every single undergrad student in their first year, which is a blatant lie.

I NEVER HAD AN INTERVIEW
THEY CONTACTED ME AND THEY SAID THEY'D RESCHEDULE AND THEY DID NOTHING
:'(

But yeah, they'll usually tell you about the appointment. If you have general questions about things, just either ask here or at the SSC (they are actually helpful a lot of the time, despite what people may tell you) or browse the uni webpages until you find your answer.

They contacted me but I missed the call so I guess I have to book myself?

FINA20026 Painting Techniques Subject Review: shit is bitchin'

They'll contact you and tell you how. They boast that they have an interview with every single undergrad student in their first year, which is a blatant lie.

They contacted me, but I declined.

"Hi, I'm calling on behalf of Student Connect-"

"No."

"Student Connect is designed to aid  students in-"

"No."

"It is strongly recommended tha-"

"NO."

A friend relayed the content of his appointment to me while I waited for him outside, it sounded useless in my context.

Probably I'd say. There's a way of doing that, though normally they do contact you a few times apparently unless they just hate you like they hate me and never contact you at all..... (ok that was melodramatic)

Heeeey does anyone know if there are any opportunities for a Summer exchange? Part of me really wants to go on exchange, and the other part of me doesn't want to go through the process of potentially cocking up pre-reqs and/or messing with my wonderful plan for the next 3 years. It hit me that maybe a Summer exchange would work - but then I realised that Summer exchanges probably don't exist lol
