Couldn't sleep until 4am last night because i was sick. I even threw up. However i still managed to wake up at 7:30am and make it in time for my first class

#dedication

However, the tutor informed me that classes actually started LAST week, and today, was our second class of the semester

I don't know anything about that book, but I'm sure it will be fine. All textbooks that are based off older books (edition wise), are usully identical. Normally, the only thing they change is the layout or the page, colors and pictures. Sometimes, the page numbers are identical.

How does the baillieu library work? Can i just go in and sit in a quiet spot with my laptop and do private study? or do i have to book something? soz, I'm a noob jaffy

Find a quiet spot and study. You only need to book those private conference rooms if you need to use them.

Thank you is there any library that is not always full and easier to find a quiet spot in? The baillieu library seems to be pretty occupied most of the times.

My first time going in there was so embarrassing. Have you heard of booking booths? Because I had not... haha.
You just go there and do your thing, but if you want to book a booth (little lounge thing), or computer, just google 'uom book computer', thats what I did and it came up xD Ill give you a tip, do not book a computer near the printing recharge machine, or you will be asked every 5 minutes how the machine works..

I went to the Medical library today and it was very quite and not busy, lots of seats available. But I was getting a lot of looks from the older students I am not sure if we jaffys can go there?

You can. The Baillieu can be quiet but you need to head up to level 2 or 3 where there are more desks and quiet zones. Same with the Giblin Eunson library.

The Giblin Eunson is such a nice place to study but everytime I go there, I can never find a spot lol
The table on the balcony is my fav <3

Hi guys, for those who had taken language placement test. I wonder if it's possible to get the Level 2 version of one subject, say I got German 3 placement test. Can I enroll GERM20004 (German 3) instead of GERM10001 (German 3)?

Thank You

2nd editions and so on are usually iterations of the original book, with subtle changes like colors, pictures and page numbers. It shouldn't be a problem. I'm not sure on that specific book though.

For BCMB20005 is it normal to have ERs that are like 60+% in similarity?
It was a template so pretty much everyone has the same report with different numbers from results etc but I'm getting paranoid

Which marketing subject is this? Do you have Simon as your lecturer?
