    Actuarial studies vs maths/Eco

    I wouldnt say that one is necessarily better, it just depends on what you're looking for. What interests you in either of these degrees?

    Nah I just had a 'week 0' so lecture notes and then exercises to complete. They made a big deal of it saying that by law they can't force you to do anything but they said if you wish to do well it is in your best interests to do so (I wont quote it itl make me look like fk). This is for ACST212...

    Actuarial + Engineering

    Strawb they changed the exemptions to 50 each as far as I know. Also Pikachu to become a fellow, a fully qualified actuary, you need to complete part 1,part 2, part 3 and a professionalism course. Part 1 consists of eight core technical subjects. If you meet the requirements in your degree...

    Actuarial + Engineering

    1. in the short term future 2. No you only need one year to do the part 2 exams. A four year degree is all that is required, but if you do a 5 year with honours and do a great job in it you can go straight to a PhD but that would be soo much time at uni/study, plus youd still have to do part 3...

    Actuarial + Engineering

    Oh pikachu one more thing I forgot to mention, some double degrees are 4 years and some are 5, it just depends whether or not you do an honours year in your non-actuarial degree. This can be benefitial if you wanna do further study but if you want to become qualified asap then it can be not so good.

    Actuarial + Engineering

    Yeah I have a close family friend that lectures at Usyd. They were chatting to one of their superiors (one of the heads of school) and telling them how I'm doing actuarial. They told me to transfer ASAP when it opens soon. That's the source I have for it but everyone knows usyd are making one...

    Yes they will in the future but as to when im not 100% sure. it will be soon tho so within next 3 years maybe. Grad supply gonna increase lol. Mind you I don't neccessarily think they'll do a good job but people will want to go there cause it's usyd. It will give more attention to the profession...

    Actuarial + Engineering

    ag and btw why did you think the atar was lower for mq? the atars for all the acst coursers are pretty much the same. I think the highest is law/actuarial @ unsw 99 ish and lowest is anu which is 95. Mind you when syd offers it next year or the year after i reckon it will be crazy high

    Actuarial + Engineering

    Ok macquarie offers 4 actuarial degrees as of next year: 1. Straight actuarial degree. This is 3 years and there is some flexibility but not a lot in the degree structure because in order to get your part 1 exemptions you need to complete your core technical or ct subjects. There are 8. Note mq...

    Yes the only uni that offers that is ANU. There are 3 engineering degrees you can do with actuarial studies. Software/normal eng/normal eng with r n d (this is like the adv stream). All have honours. The atars range from 95-99. Note it takes 5 years so if you want to pursue your professional...

    Permutations question help

    Ok for 1b since we want everything less 4000, need to consider all the outcomes for 3000. Note there should be 4 choose 3 = 4 different groupings of the 3 digits (after the intial digit) but since we want distinct answers there are only 3. If you write out all of them, there are 12. You then...
