Timetables

[mandy]

How is my timetable looking, guys? I don't want to die in first year

[rustic_metal]

That's quite good, mandy. The only suggestions I would make are to try and move one or both of the maths pracs to Friday.

^That's so similar to mine! There are only one chem tute difference (apart from breadth)!

If that's possible.  Those maths pracs look like there have to be back-to-back, like the Linear Algebra ones and if you look in my timetable, the Probability tutes have to be back-to-back.

Done with my timetable, now i'm just fine tuning it. So what do you think of it?



3 Lectures on Tuesday is the only thing i'm unsure of.

Thank you! I planned it before today like an eager first year, hahaha
Will having two three-hour practicals in a day be alright?

Haha, best timetables out!

davyp3, that's really good.

1.  You get to sleep in.
2.  You get Mondays off.
3.  You not at uni for an excessive amount of time.

3 lectures in one day is ok.  Even though your accounting one goes for two hours straight, my mate told me that the lecturer breaks for ~10 minutes after the hour.  And plus, you've got like ~2 hours break after your economics lecture.

In conclusion, awesome timetable and you'll be fine.

Streams are stopping me from getting a day off. I have one lecture which I want to move down to a later lecture to free up space and leave me a day off but if I choose the later stream then the rest of my timetable is screwed. What should I do? Can I just make the one clash and go into the other streams lecture on that day?

1.  Is a day off really important to do?
2.  Or is your overall timetable more important?

Weigh up what you want.

Also, it doesn't which streams you go to with the exception of some first year maths subjects such as Calculus 1, Calculus 2 and Linear Algebra.

I always find it easier to build my timetable from scratch before the system opens.  Use the handbook to see the timetable and then use Microsoft Word to organise.  Then when the system opens, I can just rush in and fill in my preferences.  Easily done and I'm out of there in no time.  

I tried to do this, but then some of the tutes were not available on the timetable.  And the streamed lectures put a spanner in the works.

I emailed the faculty and my breadth subject lectures are recorded, so I can take Tuesdays and Thursdays off if I am being lazy haha.

Yeah, that's the biggest problem.  I had that difficulty with Business Finance where the tutes weren't published.  I just leave them last and make sure all my lectures don't clash with other stuff then dealt with the Bus. Finance tute last.

the stream is calc 1

In that case, I'll feel that is it imperative that I inform you this:

In Calculus 1, there are different lecturers for different streams.  As a result, each lecture will be at different pages of the lecture notes, albeit they will be at similar places.  Some lectures might be a bit behind and some might be a bit ahead.  As such, you are strongly encouraged to attend the one stream (or go to multiple ones but ensuring that you go to your main ones).  Additionally, to make matter more complicated, Calculus 1 does not do this:

1.  Have lectopia, where lectures are recorded.
2.  Have full and completed lecture slides available for download.

I'm trying to swap my chemistry practical with my breadth tutorial just to spread out the 7 hour day. This also give me an hour and half off around lunchtime on Wednesday Tuesday off, Friday afternoon off and only 2 9am starts.

Streams have somewhat limited me in that they all fall one after the other (Monday, Wednesday, Friday)!

Thanks for that. I actually found a way to do it without having the clash
