Saw the swarm of ticket inspectors at parkville today lol.

I have some questions about mykis:
With myki pass, do you need to touch on/off whenever you travel if it is already active?
Just say with myki money you touched on and off a train already, when you get on the tram do you still need to do the same?

Thanks!
I always touch on/off just to be safe but if i can save having to pull out my wallet i will

I hope biomed jaffies know how lucky they are that there is a new Standing Room right next to MSD

My somewhat rudimentary understanding is that you need to touch on at every new chance you have (eg. at strain station, then again on tram, etc.), touching off is recommended (eg. for a 2 hour pass) but not necessary. The exception is if you're travelling solely within the CBD free tram zone, in this case you don't have to touch on at all.

I'm pretty sure that if you have an activated myki pass that is zone 1&2 you don't have to touch on/off. The only reason you want to do so is to get pass those darn ticket gates.
I had a yearly myki last year and there was a time when I forgot to touch on and there were ticket inspectors. Needless to say, nothing happened.
So long story short, you don't have to touch on/off on buses (though many people do).

^High school yearly passes are a different matter entirely

Generally you can sneak in extra reactant if you want a higher yield. I think most demonstrators won't notice or care but it may raise some eyes if you obtain absurd yields (like 100%+). Consider it since your yield is marked

My yield was like 0.001% once, you could only see specks of powder lol. still got 15/20 for the prac though. The yield is only like 3 marks out for 20 if I remember correctly

Yeah, would've been nice to have known this before the prac as my demonstrator had pretty average English and didn't explain marking. Oh well, bad luck to me.

I suppose there's a silver lining in that I had such little aspirin it made it seem pure with the iron chloride spot test aha.

For writing of the method for experiment two, do we have to outline the process for recrystallisation as well as the ferric spot test. Because the example has no mention of the spot test and merely says that it was recrystallised and nothing else.

Going by the practical group allocation for chemistry, it seems that during my prac time there will be 2 prac groups running, each doing different experiments, how will that work exactly?

I'm already in love with Charles . Physiology is going to be very fun this semester .

Once you go into the lab you will see that it is much bigger than you think. There will be separate areas depending gone what prac you are.

During my time there were even situation where biomed kids were doing it at the same time as science kids, but different pracs.

anyone know how much a half yearly myki costs (concession)? I cant find anything on the ptv website :/

I don't think you can buy yearly or half-yearly myki passes on Tertiary concession? (they know our semesters are only 12 weeks long!)
