Law courses

How are you able to see what courses contribute to the calculated WAM i.e. the two law? Intuition or is it clear.

Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2017

Bodie, Z., A. Kane and A. Marcus, 2013, Investments, 10th edition, Irwin McGraw-Hill

OR

The custom version of Bodie et al (2014) called FINS2624 - Portfolio Management, prepared by Shen Jianfeng

Course outline mentions either one of the above for FINS2624

Which one would you recommend for FINS2624?

Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2017

Hey guys do any of the ELEC subjects scale (by whatever means)? Feel like my avg for elec2134 and elec2141 are higher than what they probably should have been

The latter, because:

a) It is simply selected chapters from the former, and includes all the chapters you need for the course FINS2624

b) It is cheaper

Hey guys, I know most of the math course marks are out. and i've checked my wam in the stream declaration page.

absolutely devastated ahaha got a 74 WAM and needed just a 75 to transfer.
i did INFS1602, ACCT1501 & ECON1101. Can anybody confirm if these marks are part of the wam in stream declaration? trying to find ways to boost that WAM

The latter two are for sure. If your decimal point is not .0 you can infer if INFS has gone in.

Realistically speaking - No.

He's just a nightmare relative to the sem 1 lecture because Rob is a godsend.

Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2017

If i take ECON1101 during semester, instead of over summer, is it still counted as a general education?
Handbook page a little vague.

Also is anyone able to recommend math2881 or nah?
It looks a little dry, but im wondering if its useful for Statistics major?

Hey guys, what is the difference between Baxter, Basser and Goldstein? Which uni accommodation would you recommend if I want a decent social life, yet not compromise on my studies?
