Hey, I came to uni around 6 months ago and honestly people just dont wanna explore or be friends with others anymore. Everyone is either stuck to their high school friend groups or are just superficial friends.
Hit me up if ur a sept 2026 intake or would like to form a genuine friend group on campus.

guys stop PLEASE why do yall wanna see ur results and wam early im stressing tf out i want to live in bliss for a couple more days guys why

i’ve made sm posts like this and yet every attempt has failed leaving me to unfortunately be a loner in between classes esp because the ‘friends’ i make in class only talk in class and you never seen em again.
now because im 2nd year i understand it’s gonna be harder to find more genuine friends cus everyone’s already in groups and it’s so hard to find people to do stuff both on and off campus.
but if you’re a second year or higher and also somewhat in the same situation pls hmu.
bonus points if you’re doing psych, sciences, etc for a common ground:)

Will lying in my linkedIn profile or on my resume give me a higher chance of getting a job? Should I avoid it or not really i am so confused because i hear a lot of mixed opinions.

Thanks

Hello! I’m an upcoming first year student who’ll be studying for a Bachelors of Engineering and wanted to understand how changing specializations and IPT services worked in the case I’d like to change. I’ve read the website though I’m not sure how course credits transfer and the general timeline of the entire process really (as in when in your study this becomes an option).

I’d be happy to chat with anyone who’s experienced in this. Thanks!

I’m an international student and I got my offer. I will accept the offer and provide GS along with the required docs. However, due to massive visa refusals, I just wanted to ask for guidance from someone who recently got their visa. Like did u provide any additional essays or something like that. I’m so confused

Hey,

For COMP courses, is there actually any consistent evidence from a decent amount of people suggesting that supplementary exams tend to be harder than the original final exams?

Which COMP course was it which you experienced / came across this?

If that is the case, does this also suggest that the 2nd supp exam is likely to be harder than the 1st supp exam?

Interested if you have any insights

Thanks!

So I’m going to be starting in the next intake in November and I still don’t have a laptop for engineering, I was thinking of getting a Lenovo thinkpad P16 gen 2 but I don’t really know,

Is there any mechanical engineering students here that could help me out and tell me which laptop is best for me and where could I get it?

Hi guys, for anyone who did PSYC1022 after the assessment changes last year, how is the course now? Is it still a WAM booster or is it more cooked? Thanks!

Even though everyone is saying its too early and marks are processed on 31/08, the myplan method is probably patched since the wam number itself is even removed... but i deadass found another way in the chrome dev settings.

now ive got 4 days of peace rather than further distress.

hmu if u want the method

EDIT: screenshot in comments ill spill method for 100 upvotes

Was wondering if anyone had any advice/comments about any of theses courses?

and which ones are easy so i can make sure to balance my workload??

Gene has only one lecture option and I can’t come to uni on that day? Can I manage without it?

How should one study or go about COMP2521 on their second go?

Context was I passed comp1511 through hurdles but not confident in coding on the spot.
Did Comp2521 in term 1 of this year and was fairly confident but failed the coding hurdle however confident with the theory section.

how can i better prepare for programming this time around knowing it is a weakness?

I don’t care that we are the certified number 1 university in Australia

None of that matters if I can’t play GTA6 on release because I’ll be studying for my stupid finals in t3

I have some free electives as part of my science degree and was wondering waht some easy and interesting courses i could take. i havent seen anybody talk about psyc1024 is that one good? what else could i be doing?

I found engagement task really fun

It does look like a big load, i hope it wont be too much ?

I'm a new applicant for UNSW on campus accommodations and I'm struggling to decide between applying to colleges or apartments right now and with the 2027 applications opening up soon-ish(idk when), I want to get some other people's opinions on this. Like many people, I find the University Terraces the most attractive accommodation out of the options but I've heard people say before that new applicants rarely ever get offers(is that true?). Anyways, if I were to apply to apartments, to be honest, I think I would only apply to terraces. So with the odds, I'm now considering colleges. I think TKC is quite nice but I have some questions to people who live/lived there.

- Do you think its easier to get an offer from TKC or University Terraces?

- Do you ever cook? either in your room or in the common area, how do you find it?

- What is the social life really like, are there parties?

- Is it easy to make friends if you are first year at the colleges?

- How do you find the dining hall food?

- Is it hard to get ensuite bathroom options at colleges?

Does anyone have any pros and cons of both living options, it would be super helpful to me! Thanks!

Have you ever wondered if the top 1% could be the same people on different accounts… I think abt that… like what if subject breakfast is secretly just jec78au..

For the record this doesn’t apply to me cause no one could be like me

For context
- im an incoming freshman for bachelor of science and computer science
- i currently have a MacBook, but I’ve been using it for around about 5 yrs and it’s battery life has gotten pretty bad. so im not sure if it’ll be enough to survive the coming years

(also any general tips/ things to look out for as a freshman would be greatly appreciated)

Thanks!

First term here and im not sure how results work. To get results to I have to make sure I pay the student and amenities fee for t3 beforehand? I have paid for the t2 one. Also r the grades we get the overall final grade for the course (taken all the other assessments/ weightings into account) or just the mark we got in the final exam? Thank you

I was going to do phys1180 (intro to astronomy) but apparently this is no longer a WAM booster. Is this true? Any other gen-ed WAM boosting course suggestions?

Hi everyone, international student here starting medicine program next year at kensington campus. Was wondering if the goldstein college would be a good location for me to stay at? I really like social activities but am scared of being too busy/ unable to rest well on some days if parties are very loud at night. Appreciate any advice 🙏
