Academic Advice Day

you'll need ID to get your student ID, so either a drivers licence or passport. You'll also need ID for your online enrollment.

idk about this year, but last year, ID cards were made in one of the rooms in sidney myer asia centre. it was pretty much get off the swanston street tram, walk into the building and it's the first room on your left. But yeah, not sure where it'll be this year. But just look for a stupidly long line and that'll probably be it.

I think everyone should make room for an Atarnotes-exclusive AAD party in their itineraries.

What happens if we have neither a driver's licence nor a valid passport? I have both a learner's permit and a working with children check card. Should this suffice?

[Russ]

learner's permit is a driver's license is it not?

e, okay it's obviously not but it's the equivalent in terms of identification AFAIK

[Stick]

I thought it would be OK, but the university really hasn't explained that well. :S Thanks, Russ.

learners permit is fine for ID sake

It will either be that or the BBQ (which I gave up on last year).

[massachusetts8]

so what do we need to bring to AAD?

I went at 1:30pm and was expecting a massive line but I only had to wait 15 minutes. :S

Not sure haha. XD

So who managed to get into the timetabling session for Bachelor of Science students? They really should've used a bigger lecture theatre.

Same thing happened for the "Arts as breadth" presentation. Although, everyone there was essentially only interested in languages. XD

Sick as, completely understand how it all works now.


Semester 1:

Physics 1, Calculus 2, Engineering Systems 1 and some sort of Commerce breadth for me.

DONT DO ESD1 I SWEAR YOU WILL REGRET IT

[LeviLamp]

Unless you're doing a Chem Eng major (but looking at your subjects it doesn't look like you are)!

[scribble]

i didnt take the subjects, but every single one of my friends who did didn't enjoy it/wish they took something else. :'D from what i hear, it's just a poorly run subject overall. everyone who took ripped it to shreds in the end of semester surveys. XD i remember one of the lecturers reading out someones feedback for esd2 saying "unlike esd1, this subject is actually worth taking" and the student cohort just rang with approval.  also esd1's not a prerequisite for most engineering streams, so theres not a whole lot of point.
