Pfft... If I had a 5 when I was at uni, I wouldn't have gone to any classes and just gone cruising through USYD with the roof down. Just do that instead of the run. It'll probably be much more fun

It would be more fun than classes, but I wouldn't learn anything and never be able to buy a ferrari so I can actually win the drags.

UTS doesn't really lend itself to wasting time. I worked there whilst I was at uni, and man was it a boring campus

You could always transfer to the kuringgai campus. At least they have something resembling an actual campus, rather than a few tall buildings.

As for not learning anything, don't worry about it. That's what stuvac is for. I found cramming for that and whatever other assessments worked a treat rather than paying solid attention in classes. My theory is that because you cram it all, the info is fresher in your brain. If you study during semester, then only kinda study in stuvac, you won't remember as much.

Of course, if you're gonna be fully committed, then you would study all throughout semester as well as cram during stuvac, but where's the fun in that?

We could drive down Canterbury rd., to Lakemba. Rule 1 must have roof on for protection, rule 2 must have stereo turned up real loud, rule 3 must have seat reclined right back. :mrgreen:

If you do what I do then go part to 3/4 time and then work on your days off so you can afford to race and buy car parts. Unfortunately it makes the course longer, 5 years is already too long, you have to find a balance of wasting your life and having fun, its not fun when you fail subjects.

Isn't that amusing. I studied Computer Engineering. Same diff as Electrical for the most part except for 3rd and 4th year courses. Believe me, I bludged pretty hard during semester and I crammed like nothing else when it came to stuvac. Especially first and second year circuit analysis. I scraped through by the skin of my nose for anything circuit analysis related. Wait til you get on to signals and systems... you'll cram like you've never crammed before.

Anyway, back on topic, someone suggest a run

*stay on target*

So, back to the OP. Any thoughts on when and where to?

So what happened here? Did the person who doesn't show up, just not even organise the drive for himself for him not to turn up to? Too busy pining away for a Titanium SE?
