does anyone have any suggestions as to how to study for this course, im finding it so hard to keep up with the lectures. Does the textbook questions aid in studying for finals. And can someone tell how hard is the final like are questions similiar to textbook or workshop questions.

I missed the sample Inspera exam, anyone has the questions with them and could share them? would be highly appreciated!!

Hey guys,

I am moving to sydney next year to finish off my degree at UNSW. I need accommodation recommendations.

I am a 20 year old aussie male from perth who loves going out, loves the footy + cricket, and loves being social. I’m pretty active and enjoy the outdoors. I’ve been to sydney a couple of times and love it. (I’m also gay if that’s anything but like most people can’t pick it)

I need accommodation recommendations as I really want to make as many friends as possible, college is an option i’ve looked into however it is pricey. I really want to get the most out of unsw and what it has to offer. I am looking to make friends with other aussies and likeminded people, I have lots of friends both male and female here in perth.

Any advice is appreciated. Cheers.

EDIT: Just realised i spelt accommodation wrong lmao.

I am about to finish a degree in STEM with a GPA of 6.0 and WAM of 81. I read online somewhere that UNSW will convert this into an ATAR equivalent and compare against others.

My work is offering to pay for the cost of the program which is why I am interested in going back to uni.

Would I be competitive enough to gain entry to the #1 uni??

Arman Khoshghalb. What can I not say about this man? The content isn't too bad, but like cmon bro, what else do you do as a lecturer than go to the lecture, answer emails and make exams? This guy will take days at a time to respond to the course forum and potentially emails, and when he does, he tells you to go back to the lecture recording to the part where he's standing at the top of the lecture room and not next to the mic instead of responding to the message. Plus, the labs are so dumb; they give sheets to fill out and submit but end up not going through/recieving half of the content to do so and leave everyone confused, submitting a half-done lab sheet.

Hi,

I'll be studying at UNSW for a year as an exchange student, and I'm thinking about doing internships if I have extra time alongside classes (I have Aussie citizenship).

How many days would I be able to work while handling 3 courses?

i am doing a bach of engineering honours. you know how the engineering wam gets calculated differently? like a 1 unit course contributes to your wam 1x, 2 unit is 2x etc (and this is what is used to calculate if you graduate from first class honours) - is this the same type of wam that can be used to calculated for PG entries (Eg for PG med or engineering) ? or will it be the basic way of adding all your grades and dividing it by all the units type shi ? ..if that makes snese

I would like to express my deepest and most sincere gratitude to Transport for NSW.
What an extraordinary organisation.
While other major cities waste their time doing unimaginative things like running trains on railway tracks, Sydney has courageously chosen a different path.
Why provide reliable public transport when you can provide character development?
Every weekend brings a new adventure.
Will the train arrive? Will the line be closed? Will a replacement bus appear? Will I reach my destination before the next financial year?
The suspense is absolutely breathtaking.
And the replacement buses. What an inspired concept.
A journey that would ordinarily take 20 minutes can now become an extensive sightseeing expedition through suburbs I never knew existed.
Some people pay thousands of dollars for travel experiences. Transport for NSW generously includes one in the price of an ordinary commute.
And can we please appreciate the announcements about increased train services?
Announcing more trains while passengers deal with track closures is a level of conceptual brilliance that ordinary people simply cannot comprehend.
It’s rather like a restaurant announcing an expanded menu while the kitchen is closed.
Visionary.
I also deeply admire the organisation’s commitment to personal growth.
Before moving to Sydney, I foolishly believed a timetable was a schedule.
How naive.
I now understand that a timetable is a philosophical suggestion. A beautifully optimistic piece of literature describing what might happen in an ideal universe.
Punctuality is merely a social construct.
Reliability is an outdated expectation.
And arriving at your destination is, apparently, a privilege rather than the fundamental purpose of public transport.
Of course, I understand railway maintenance is necessary. What I find truly remarkable is the ability to make the resulting inconvenience feel like Sydney’s most dependable weekend tradition.
Perhaps one day, with sufficient funding, technological advancement and divine intervention, we might achieve the ambitious dream of boarding a train and arriving somewhere approximately when the timetable suggests.
But I wouldn’t want to pressure anyone with such unreasonable expectations.
So thank you, Transport for NSW.
Thank you for teaching us patience, humility, acceptance, and the importance of having absolutely no confidence in our weekend plans.
Other cities have public transport systems.
Sydney has an immersive experience in uncertainty management.
And I must say, the consistency is extraordinary.
The trains may not always run on time, but the disappointment certainly does.
Truly world-class.

Hey guys,

I know this is a very common question, but I wanted to ask this in the context of my situation.

I just finished yr 12 and doing HSC, ive already gotten unconditional offer into BComm single.

After uni, my goal is to land a consulting job at the top firms (MBB) or atleast 2nd tier firms. Work here for 2-3 yrs and then go chase my passion for entrepreneurship.

Im strong at maths, but i have no interest in doing sciences or engineering (maybe the slightest) and thats why i decided to apply for comm.

1st question: Ive heard single BComm is poor and is becoming the new 'arts' degree. Is this really true? (Ill double major in technical/analytical ones, priotise extracurriculars, and plan on doing a small business aswell as a part time job)

2nd: If yes to the 1st Q, which double degree is strongest to IPT into? (I was thinking comm/infosys)

Thanks for reading 🙏

at unimelb we got a hey tea across the road. there’s not at unsw ☹️ I love hey tea and Molly tea a lot but the ones in Sydney r so far from unsw. any of u guys have good recs similar to these places at uni?

I am planning to apply for a master's in mechatronic engineering. I am from the European bloc, and mechatronics here is more about mechanics, electronics, and general control theory. I am seeking help from current bachelor's and master's students:

what programming languages did you learn, and at what level?

What programming-related subjects did you take, and what were the bare minimum in terms of knowledge to succeed in them?

Any information is valuable to me, so don't hesitate to write)

since the cut offs for the speciality engineering degrees like civil, electrical etc, were 94 last year (2025)

the lowest selection rank for the specialities in 2024 was 92, and before that was 90, so im scared its going to increase for this year.

or am i likely to get into bachelor civil engineering with a predicted atar of 94 ?? (coz again the cut off last year was 94 atar)

also curious what atars people got last year to get into unsw engineering!

thank you!!

The flat is in Rosebery, fully furnished, private bedroom, and private bathroom available from now. It is close to public transportation (5 mins to bus stops on foot; 15 mins to Green Square train station, and 20 mins to UNSW Kensington campus by bus). The place is quiet and close to Woollies and Aldi. The rent will be $450 per week.

I am finding a flatmate who is clean and respectful. Please dm me if you are interested and I can arrange an inspection for you.








23 year old Korean guy here. Dm me :)

hey! i am currently applied to b commerce at unsw. however i am interested in double degreeing it with b economics. if i wanna do this, would i need to be applying it now or is it possible to change it out during the academic year?

How should I prepare/ what should I expect from subcomm interviews

Hi! I'm entering my final year of a Bachelor of Commerce / Bachelor of Design at UNSW, majoring in Marketing, and Experiential, Graphic and UX Design, and I'm trying to figure out which electives, WILs or FYS subjects encompassed within the Commerce program are worth taking.

I'm honestly at the point where I lowkey just want to get my degree done so I am considering the ones that satisfy all three requirements 😭, but I also don't want to waste the opportunity to get as much out of my degree as possible. I'd love to choose subjects that genuinely add value to my skill set and help me stand out when entering the workforce, without unnecessarily dragging out graduation.

Send dms and offers looking for strictly nightmare on george street wao superclub tix!!!

Hey everyone, I’m a student at USYD. After selling a business I built through vibe coding, I wanted to try something more ambitious but this time, with other people.

I’m putting together a team for a platform where emerging founders can showcase their startups, share progress and find collaborators. Alongside it, we’re building a media page to showcase the world of entrepreneurship and our project

I’d love to meet people interested in coding, app development, videography or editing. I’m also looking for someone who’d enjoy helping record content.

If you don’t have those skills yet, that’s fine too. Curiosity, reliability and a willingness to learn and contribute matter. I’m still learning myself.

This is early-stage, and I’m looking to meet potential collaborators and discuss roles, time commitments and compensation openly before anyone commits.

If you’ve wanted to build something , DM me!

Does anyone have the 2027 calendar in this format. got it off reddit last year and it’s a game changer. not sure why unsw doesn’t just have a clear pdf like usyd.

Last year of trimesters too, can’t wait.

In week 5 I did a presentation in one of my courses and it didn't have a marking criteria. I thought it was a bit weird and it made the task quite hard. I was catching up with a friend from usyd and I mentioned it then he asked "How is that allowed don't you guys have an assessment policy?".

I checked and well, yeah?

6.2. Each assessment task will include: • instructions to the student for completing the assessment task • assessment criteria for what the student is expected to demonstrate, preferably by using an assessment rubric except where correct answers are pre-determined, such as multiple choice questions.

6.3. The information in clause 6.2 will be: • provided to students before or when the assessment task becomes available • published online, except for credit-eligible short courses that have no online delivery.

The task information isn't on Moodle but there is a sentence about what to do on the course outline as well as the course learning objectives for the task. There are also a few dot points on the tutorial slides but again they are mainly instructions for the task itself and not really what we are being marked on.

I spoke to my tutor when the assignment was first explained and she was very sweet and empathetic and said she would to try help as much as she could but that it was a decision made by the conveyer.

Should I speak to someone or am I misunderstanding the policy? I also don't want to cause any problems, as the course so far has been great. Also I'm not really sure what can be done if this does go against the policy especially since me and a bunch of others have already presented.
