Viability of skipping lectures: CIV2206 and CIV2263

[Triazic]

CIV2206 (mechanics of solids) and CIV2263 (water systems), anyone know if these lectures are recorded well?

And to a lesser extent ATS1261 (understanding human behaviour) and ENG2091 (advanced engineering mathematics A).

Otherwise this timetable is looking fuckhorrible haha.

Almost all lectures at monash are recorded. So, that makes it possible, whether its advisable is another thing.

If it'll make your life a living hell or you're trying to do it to get a day or two off, its fine. Just stay ontop of it. I know wayyyy too many people (myself included) who skip a lot of lectures and suddenly have 30 to listen for the first time the week before the exam.

I only attended one lecture a week last semester (and sometimes didn't go to that) and stayed on top of it and did well so all's good. I just know that some subjects the lecturer does all the worked examples on a separate projector rather than the main one so you don't see any of it in the recordings. Just wondering if these specific lectures were like that.

And yeah, doing engineering and arts gives pretty hellish timetables in terms of auto-allocated lectures.
