Not true btw.

Bachelor of Science (Mathematics) - Third year

Re: Semester 2 USYD Chatter Thread Anyone done FINC3021: Finance Theory recently? How mathematical is it? What's it like? Also asking for a friend, does anyone know/have done NUTM3001? If so what is it like?

This is right.

Re: Extracurricular Integration Marathon Let B_R(t)=Re^{it} for 0 \leq t \leq \frac{\pi}{4} Then B'_R(t)=Rie^{it} So we have: |\int_{B_R} e^{-z^2}dz| \leq \int_0^{\frac{\pi}{4}}|e^{-(Re^{it})^2}Rie^{it}|dt =\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{4}} Re^{-R^2cos(2t)} dt \to 0 $~as~$ R \to \infty \int_{B_R}...

Re: HSC 2016 4U Marathon - Advanced Level At least for people who've been around awhile (me/sy/etc)

Re: HSC 2016 4U Marathon - Advanced Level Pretty sure it was obvious anyway :p

You're forgetting tax though and other stuff. Like tax alone, on a 60k salary, you'll be paying 11k. So you will only be getting 49k a year.

Re: HSC 2016 4U Marathon - Advanced Level Yep there's no denying they can be very hard, but still possible for a smart HSC student given they try for long enough.

Re: HSC 2016 4U Marathon - Advanced Level I don't think uni maths is required for the questions in this thread tbh. Uni maths has quite a different flavour to high school maths.

Another pretty good option is prop trading, but it's very hard to get into and the exit opportunities aren't good (but when you're making that much you don't really need any lol).

Pretty pumped to do this in galois theory this sem (apparently it's related to the A_{60} group from algebra?).

My bet is the people telling you that don't actually do maths themselves. There's plenty of opportunities; academia, teaching, finance, meteorology, oceanology, statistician, etc. At the moment I'm in the final round interview for an internship with a company that hires specifically maths...

USYD have a really good education department.

The assessment mark.

You can't exactly quantify which is better (rankings don't mean that much for undergraduate). But the way they are usually compared is: USYD is more focused on research, UNSW is more focused on industry (can look at rankings for this, USYD ranks slightly higher for research, UNSW ranks slightly...

Marking the HSC last year doesnt make her a credible marker tbh. When I did my HSC, the person ranked first got 103/105 in trials from a HSC senior marker, yet in the actual HSC got 80/105. Your marks can not decrease, even if there is an error.

Not really, need to have like 90+ HSC marks for that to happen.

You really shouldn't let your bias affect your advice to somebody about their future, that seems kinda unethical tbh. Not just this, but I always see UNSW people spamming "UNSW is the best, go there". You are helping some one decide their future, don't be a dick. To anyone reading, UNSW is...

Nothing will happen to them, they are your marks.
