Withdrawing without fail (ie. withdrawing before september 23) does not affect my GPA/WAM... right?

Doesn't affect your GPA/WAM, but you still need to pay the cost of your subject :/

hey guys,

if an assignment is due at 11.59 (yeah it's in 8 mins lol  )today and I submit it on Monday, do I get the late penalty for 2 days worth or do late penalties only count per working day?

[squidgee123]

Exam timetables are out.

Just so happens I've got a clash between my BCMB30010 and PHYS20008 exams. The FAQ says that I get notified about alternate exam arrangements later on. Does anyone know if this is something I have to go tell unimelb myself or do they just reschedule it automatically for me?

Edit: Made a query. It's all automatically done for you.

That's what I get for doing a strange mix of subjects I suppose, WAM is gonna take a big hit hahaha

Oh my god that's horrible haha. I've never seen a timetable worse than that.

But look at it this way, you finish so darn early. I'm going overseas a day after my final exam. I have to be back before a certain date for a wedding. So if I had have finished exams earlier I could have gone overseas for longer .

And either way, knowing you personally you will still smash all your exams ''Frank''

Also I waited 1 week to get a response from stop 1 that ended up looking like it was automated or copy & pasted and it didn't have any information that I didn't know, nor did it even answer my question

I had that last semester. good luck! start preparing early and don't get stressed out the night before the day with 2 exams like I did

Can't believe it. Only a few months left until this is all over. Only a few more months until the pain ends. I can't wait to complete my degree. UoM has been the worst experience of my life thus far.

Really? Why do you say that?

[asianguy22]

Congratulations on graduating!

What pathway are you planning on taking after you graduate?

Thank you,

Accounting, but i have poor marks, not much work experience and no EC's

So i'm screwed.

Really? Why do you say that?

I failed to make friends in first year and ended up becoming very depressed.

In second year i failed many subjects and hardly attended.

By the time 3rd/4th year rolled over, i became a complete loner/loser and spend most of my time at uni and in general on my own.

sorry to hear you had a bad experience dude, all the best


does anyone know some really easy subjects? I don't mean something like Chem 1 LOL I mean genuinely easy if possible

I need to get my WAM up and it can be anything from any area, just something where 90 is achievable

Looking for some insight into honours in finance. Really want to know why people did it/doing it, and its relevance to finding a job in the banking industry.

And while I'm at it, if anyone would like, how did they go in 3rd year finance subjects compared to busfi? Is busfi any indication of how you'll find 3rd year finance subjects - currently halfway through busfi and there's not much to it it seems.

Thankyououuuu all if anyone has any input
