RMIT's student timetabling system is the worst thing in the world.

I don't think it could be worse than ACU's.

First in, first served at like 6:30am or thereabouts isn't it? :P

They tell you when the available classes are then change them, and even when you're on at 8am when it opens you have to be quick.

Worked out what timetable I wanted last week, where I would only go in Monday-wed finishing at 12:30 for the week. To what I have now which is 16 hours of classes spread out over all 5 days. With 6 straight hours of classes on Monday NO BREAKS.  :(

[My Chumps]

I had next to 0 flexibility with my timetable this year. 8 hours straight on Monday, finish at quarter past 7 :-\

[Nige]

7 hours a week over 2 days.  8)

[Jukes]

I got it good :D 3 hours Monday morning, 3 hours Thursday morning, 3 hours Friday morning. Monday and Thursday at 9:30-12:30 so free for lunch dates while still getting to wake up late :3 8:30-11:30 on Friday, meh.

Only 4 more days of freedom tho :/

[Nige]

I've got 1pm-5pm on Wednesday afternoon and 9am-12pm on Friday morning.

We'll see how I go for four hours straight, haven't had that before, but I should cope since the tute from 2-3 will fly by.

I get another fun 21 hours a week, which isn't including the triple clash I have (for some absurd reason)

[Big Mac]

First SAC next week

My friend has had that last year, it's a pain to handle as he wound up skipping all three some weeks then had to catch up with them anyway later on.

That's bad to hear, especially since have to go everyday. Not to mention what a way to kick off the week ;). Hopefully some people change subjects/drop out over first week or two so you can change timetable around possibly. What I do if I don't initially get the times I wanted.

Still have next week of holidays (as O-week for the jaffys) so I shall try to party as hard as I can for the rest of you guys :P.

What is 'O week'? I mean, I guess 'O' stands for orientation - but for a whole week?

[Hellopplz]

Yep, Orientation week at Monash. So pretty much a week to show around the new students and for people to join clubs who have stalls opened all week long. Can also grab some free stuff and food ;).

[nrich102]

So I need to write a speech about 'new beginnings' for next week.

What should I say? I have no idea, I need to give it to Year 7s and 10s.
