Man wish I could get Monday off, but Physiology has marked lecture attendance or something.

You have to pay for a PRS (Personal Response System) clicker to be loaned to you for a semester and during lectures the lecturer will put questions up on the slides and the audience submit answers. You get marked on submitting an answer, not on whether it's correct (in biomed they weren't marked and half the responses were people sending in random stuff)

Cheers Russ. Guess I'll haul my ass into Uni for an hour then.

 Does anyone know if it was necessary to go the Biochem and Molecular Biology lectures last year? Like were all the lectures recorded on lectopia?

Bad idea to cram everything into 2 days??

[Gloamglozer]

LFTM:

1.  If you like 3 days "off uni", then that's cool.
2.  If you like 3 hours or 4 hours straight without a break, then you're good.
3.  You do have reasonable lunch breaks in between so I'll hail you for that.

But the question is, what about your endurance for 12 weeks?  And you'll have to stay until 6:15 pm for the two days.  Imagine in Winter when it's dark at that time.

[LFTM]

you make a good point there, i hate walking home in the dark.

[Gloamglozer]

Yeah, I don't mind if I'm in a group, but alone on the other hand...  We live in the 21st century unfortunately.

Also, finishing at 6:15 pm doesn't mean you'll get home at that time either.*  You need to factor in transport time as well.

*Unless if you live at college or within a reasonable walking distance from uni.

Aww shit, how do you know if they mark attendance at your lecture.

I am so stuck with no idea what to do.

I don't think I can avoid clashes with Calc 1.

Someone please give help.  At the moment, I have to go to lectures I am not enrolled in. 

A day of would be nice, but I am happy to go on Tuesday and Thursday if necessary.

Don't worry.  Attendance in Calc 1 lectures are not marked.

Thanks.

Leave it or change?

If I change, then I am screwed, as it will mean early starts and 5pm finishes every day, and I am not sure things will even improve in terms of clashes.

So my current plan to go to Calc 1 lecture at 9am Mondays and Chem for Biomed lecture at 1pm Wednesdays is alright?

I tried to push generate clash free timetable at the start, and it just did nothing.

[Gloamglozer]

Ok.  If you go to the 11 am Calc lecture, you'll miss only Monday provided you move the Chem lecture to 1 pm Wednesday.  If you go to the 9 am one, you will miss Wednesday & Friday.  Yeah?

But on Monday, can you move that Chem lecture anywhere else or is there just 1 stream?

[schmalex]

heres mine for now

We share the same lecture and tutorial for QM1

The only way around it is to move the Chem prac to a thursday, and the Bio prac to a Tuesday.

But the Bio prac is full.  It says to wait until Feb 21 for more spots.

The problem is, the chem and bio and linguistics lectures are fixed, so it makes everything impossible.

awesome
see you around

[kakaka:DDD]

I have a subject clash, both are lectures and only comes in that particular time... what am I suppose to do? do i have to swap subjects between semester then? (i don't really want to swap)

Yeah, I'm stuck with that problem too. Chemistry and Physics just don't seem to like each other. I'm just hoping to do physics at the repeat time which currently isn't on the timetable. Perhaps you could check the times of your elective to see if they've missed a repeat time.

People may move out of it before then, depends on how desirable the spot is. Just keep checking every day and see what happens.

In terms of your decision, going to the lectures outside the stream is possible but it's up to you whether the downsides outweigh the positives.

And to whoever asked, biochem lectures are recorded yes (or they were for my year)
