If I'm walking from Parliament station there's a path to get from the east side of the REB to the west side right? (My exam is on the west side.)

Also, I don't really want to bring a backpack tomorrow but I don't really want to be holding onto my zip-lock bag on the train either... do you think there would be a problem if I brought a plastic shopping bag with me while I'm on the train and fold it under my desk when I get there?

We make a good team, I wish I could bring you into my exams with me El2012.

The Royal Exhibition Building West, otherwise known as Rathdowne, is entered through the same doors as Royal Exhibition Building East. You turn left instead of right though when entering through the same doors.

And they won't mind as long as the bag is completely transparent.

Yep, if you head to REB east (which is where you will see the crowd) and enter through the doors they will have labelled something like this as soon as you enter:

"Seats 1-100 West <--- (Left hand side)"
"Seats 100-200 East ---> (Right hand side)"

As for plastic bags, i've heard them telling people to get rid of them as soon as they enter the exam building :/ Just bring a jacket with big pockets or something to hold your stationary

Good luck for the the two exams Stick!


@Ballerina lol nooo the genetics, health and society concepts aren't cemented in my brain like they seem to be in yours!

mfw only need another 20% to pass.

tfw BIOL10004 exam is out of 180 marks that primarily uses recognition in the form of MCQs and cloze statements to test student understanding.

For anyone who is doing ANAT30007 (Human Locomotor Systems), or has done it in the past:

On the practical exam, do we just have to label structures?

Or could we get asked what a structure does, for example?

Is this best way to study just labelling as many cadaver diagrams as I can find?

I'm interested to know too, if anyone's done it
Not sure how to go about studying for it.

But yeah that's what I'm doing atm and familiarising myself with anatomedia pics 
But we could be asked what it does too.. I think :///

There seems to be a lot of posts on the front page of the forum so I guess I'll just ask here. Has anyone done Finance 1 recently? I am considering taking it next semester, however I am a bit confused about the content. The reviews and handbook suggest it is sort of a mathematical subject, can anyone confirm this? If anyone has any notes/tute sheets/lecture slides that you can PM me so I can get a feel of the subject content I would be very grateful.  :) Thanks.

I did it as a summer intensive which is basically the same, just faster. It is half maths and half theory but the maths is incredibly easy, just plugging numbers into formulas they give you. The theory is pure rote learning. The only somewhat difficult thing is wrapping your head around which formula you should be using but other than that, i found it a great subject.

Quick question.

Is there a list anywhere that shows you how many people were admitted to different postgraduate courses at Melbourne? I know that the university publishes admissions data for undergraduate courses but I have yet to find a list for postgraduate courses.

Thanks in advance!

Hey,

Are there any current Bachelor of Arts students enrolled which received a great ATAR but didn't quite suffice for the 92+ clearly in?
