What students say

I had to sit a supplementary exam because I thought I failed the unit. After receiving an email about results, I emailed the linear algebra lecturer to ask if I had passed—I wanted to know whether to start studying again. It turns out I actually passed. If you're in a similar situation, my advice is to contact your lecturer directly.

I had a deferred exam and was offered a supplementary, but I had to personally email my unit coordinator to get it sorted in week 3 of the next semester. It really depends on the unit, so your mileage may vary.

UWA's PR team seems to work overtime while they take your money and trap you in mediocre degrees. Support is poor, and the unit coordinators are unhelpful. I really regret my choice—this place doesn't care about students at all.
