chances are it will change again.. it happens lots and will only be finalised in the first week of the semester!

and its up to you if you go to your tutorial or the maths learning centre. it depends on how your maths is, and if you want to pass! i go to my tutorials if i have any (havent had one in ages because no time).

and looking at your tt it will have to change. normal rules say that 4 hours in a row is the max.

at least you've a half day weds! i've 9-6 three days and 9-5 the other two!!

Go to every tutorial and you will pass maths eaily. It will be worth it.

i dont mind going to maths tutorials but all im saying is that if i missed the friday ones would i ok??

. I imagine a tutorial would be maybe a small group of around 15 students doing questions and asking for help when they need it! Am i right???

PS: What do the numbers in each block mean

EG: The lecture at 16.00 on a mon 1-6, 8-12????

Those refer to the week periods, the one you mention basically tells you that you won't have it during week 7.

is week 7 the october mid term week off

CA dont get reading week - only the business and humanities faculty get this.

and cognos its a bit misleading to say robdcu will fly maths if he/she attens tutorials, extra study will of course have to be completed

LegacyUser

of course i intend on doing much study to pass maths !! so if we dont get reading week ! what does this mean?????

What is reading week ??

Does this mean we have a week off

rugbug86

no, reading week is a mid-term break, which computers, engineering and science dont have

so no week off i'm afraid

LegacyUser

does acccounting and finance have the week off ??? my friend wants to know!

I disagree, for me at least all the study I required was done during the tutorials.

Thats the idea, there will be a list of questions given each week which you should do at/before the tutorial. You can ask for help about those questions during the tutorial.

spunds like the same Timetable i had back in first year, maths is grand as long as you get yourself a decent continuos assessment mark and study for the end of year exam

dont miss any programming lectures/labs, you miss one lab and forget about passing the year..... well maybe i'm exaggerating but you get the point

and yea AF get reading week off
