    HEA = Health Sciences Building



    Yeah - small "admin" detail, like the actual name of the building!! Don't give advice if you don't know for certain!!

    Really now, cos mine says Newman building, and then after the classroom number, give the extra letters.

    Hey, I got my elective confirmed yesterday from provisional but I decided after to drop it and take up another one COMP10030, it says confirmed aswell, there was 13 spaces but the lectures show up on my timetable but the one hour tutuorial isnt there at all, on my general or weekly one and there isnt an option to pick a time it just says "automatically registered".... do you think I have that as an elective or should I look for another one?

    Lithium I'm doing the exact same elective and I'm having the same problem. I'd say we'll be able to choose our tutorial times during one of the lectures, the tutorials don't start until the third week, so if there is a problem we'll have plenty of time to sort it out.

    Well then, you just run along to Newman and just ignore that silly old timetable :P

    But seriously, HEA means Health Sciences Building. The timetable always lists the room and then the building. There should be a list of codes somewhere as well - just so you can confirm for yourself.

    I got both the ones I requested, but they were in-programme, and not on any "easy electives" list by a long shot. I hope I don't live to regret that ...
    Update: after the first of the electives, I'm definitely regretting it, and I'm going to take an unnecessary hit to my GPA. The second one looks better, but not by much, and so I've chickened out and changed it to something else that, while not an "easy elective" to most people, is a subject in which I have previous experience. It's the last semester of a 3-year degree, so this is no time to be a hero!

    Depends what you're interested in really! Which CS elective were you thinking of doing?

    It's "computer science for engineers 1", I'm in science but I didn't take intro to programming 1 so I have to kinda go will that module if I want to learn a computer language. I thought macroeconomics would be interesting but not really as useful as computer science.

    If it's an introductory programming course, then that would probably be more useful to you than an economics course, but that's just my opinion.
