Any recommendations on online resources I can learn from?

I don't think UMEP is offered on campus. Or did you mean I can just go to any lecture I want? So let's say I wanted to attend MAST30021 (620324) Complex Analysis on Wednesday 3:15pm - 4:15pm, do I just go there, sit down and listen? I'm pretty sure they'll spot me instantly as a school student because of my school uniform...but then again I could always change clothes...

Yes you can just go and sit in on lectures.. Some uni subjects actually have lectures at the uni, and you see school kids in uniforms in them, but I'd be safe and just chuck on a jumper or something so it looks like your not a school kid, wouldn't want to stand out unnecessarily .

Complex Analysis?!  That's a third year subject.  Are you sure you don't want to sit through Real Analysis or Accelerated Maths first?

EDIT:  Or maybe you've done Real Analysis and/or Accelerated Maths in which case disregard this post.

I went here: http://futurestudents.unimelb.edu.au/info/school-students/extension-program/resources/subject-areas and it appears that it is one of the subjects where UniMelb doesn't have lectures on campus, you have to go to other schools. Or did you mean I could go to any lecture I want at the uni, not just UMEP units?

Just giving an example. I just wanted to know if I was able to go to any lecture at the uni, even third-year subject lectures. Isn't that basically free education?

^ i meant go to the handbook and find the subject you want to do and just attend lectures, you can go to any.. including that third year subject if you really were interested :p
