Booking an appointment for subjects?

[Edmund]

Don't the new students get a one-on-one appointment at the earth sciences building? You get your subjects put through and a whole folder of forms that you take to Wilson Hall and get your ID/diary/Myki/Metcard concession. I think you get to find out when the appointment is on AAD.

We didnt get any info like that, maybe ill call up tomorrow and ask

If you weren't told that then don't bother Because that was the year before last and things probably changed

EDIT

Actually....

Sorry for the double post but those of you who went today did you get told how to book an appointment for Sciences?

There was a table in the foyer at the Spot that was surrounded by a crap load of people. If you managed to wait long enough, they'd give you an appointment card with date + time.

I figured that they were just for support for students who are unaware on how to choose subjects properly, I just need the ID/dairy ect

There's a stack of diaries (not sure about dairy) lying around the EPSC so I'm assuming you just pick one up from there because I sort of did that. And you get your ID from the Asia Centre.

Yeah, I saw heaps of people lining up in the Asia Centre waiting to get their photo taken on Monday.  And with diaries, yeah, I just "borrowed" a couple of them...  Just a couple.

Nah, here's the game plan Russ:

1.  Go into the EPSC when it is really busy so the staff are all occupied.
2.  Carefully scan your surroundings to see if there are any observers.
3.  Go up to the desk and SWAG!*
4.  Then walk away normally.

*Make sure you have a few mates with you then it won't look so suss that you're swagging.

I got my hands on one in the MDHS centre but was called back after I started walking away because they only have enough for the med students

[melissa.]

I got my id at MDHS, my diary at one of the student centres next to/in the Alice Hoy building and was told at EPSC that they'll mail the concession form in feb...all because I couldn't be bothered waiting for the Asia Centre to open at 12 hehe

Do other year levels have to pay for the diary or something?

Don't think so...  At least I hope not...  *eeeeek*

Anything good in the diaries - as in vouchers etc... I haven't got mine yet, planning to go during O-week.

Haha Gloamy, don't think you can get past step 2 since you may need to take a queue number to get a diary The staff are very fussy about queue numbers The other time I just wanted a form from behind the counter and she insisted I get a number even though it was 10 am and there weren't anyone there. I went over to the machine but it wasn't turned on so I went back and she was like 'Oh sorry, wait a sec'. She turns on the machine and still insisted that I took a number. I went back to the machine again and it didn't seem to be working as it should so I went back and told her nothing was coming out and that I just needed a form. She went 'oh right.' and fiddled around the machine and told me to try again. It worked of course, got a number and eventually got my form. I can't tell if they were messing around with me or if they were serious about everyone getting numbers

There are piles of them in the Arts student center because Arts students know they won't need an organiser as they will never show up to any scheduled appointments anyway, they will be too lazy, too hungover or too cool.

[Russ]

I don't use my diary, I just want one (I actually want at least two or three)

I got past step 2 twice.  I did another "run" today at 2:43 P.M. and there were jaffies everywhere.  That meant all the staff were busy and I just swiped.

Plus, the sign says that diaries are at the front counter and "please help yourself" so I did "help" myself by taking some...  only a few...
