Long story short i might need to do this as a space filler next semester. As someone who did 3 unit maths for HSC in 2012, how hard should I find this subject?

I'll be doing MATH1004 next semester as well, and I only have a 3 unit background.

Seeing as it is a normal level unit, I doubt it would be any more hard than the any of the other first year normal-level mathematics subjects.

3 Unit is more than enough to get you through discrete Mathematics. A lot of the stuff will seem new and alien but once you get used to it, you'll find that it really isn't at all that bad.

GL remembering anything but beside that 3 unit should be fine

According to the Handbook assumed knowledge is only 2u math.

I heard it was really easy.

 

[Andrew759]

And theres some content thats already been touched on in 3u such as combinatorics and induction.

Heard it was pretty cool. Only thing deterring me from it is that its the only 3cp subject next sem and you cant do more than 24cp.

 

[Amleops]

You can do more than 24 credit points in one semester.

The only restrictions you'd have to look out for is if you are in the Advanced or Advanced Mathematics stream, in which case you can only do 48 credit points of junior subjects.

 

[namelyanonymous]

Oh wow really? How do I do that??

Ahh :/ yeah im doing an advanced maths stream. so i guess that makes it not possible again?

(Sorry for derailing a bit off the thread topic)

You'd just add the unit as per normal in MyUni Enrolment Variations. It should allow you to add up to 36 credit points in one semester (although you'd probably be killing yourself if you do).

And yeah, if you've done 24 credit points this semester and 24 next semester not including MATH1004, then it won't be possible. If you ended up completing MATH1004 than you would be downgraded to the normal stream.

I did both MATH1004 and MATH1005 end of last year, and I plan on taking MATH1003 because it seems interesting and I did 4u HSC, it looks like it should be pretty much a rehash of that.
To anyone considering which one to do, id say do MATH1004, unless you know for sure you need Statistics. Discrete maths is much more interesting.
