I'm not really familiar with CA, but I googled it and it definitely looks like it is possible. They mandate what is equivalent to 84 credit points, and there are 240 needed for the combined degree, so there's plenty of room. Yes it goes into much more depth with the mathematics involved. I'd...

There are many Australian universities which will provide you with a quality education and stand you in good stead when applying for jobs later down the track. Don't worry so much about that now. Your main purpose for being in university is to learn. So with that in mind, you really need to...

Depends on the university. Can't speak for the others but you can definitely do a double major at USYD if you plan your units appropriately.

Re: Semester 2 USYD Chatter Thread Shit haha. How is MATH2968? I'm thinking of doing it next year and if it's similar to MATH2962 then I think I can do decent if I prepare well.

Yeah that's right. You're already doing the minimum number of senior subjects for the Arts component, so you can't replace any of the economics subjects with maths. Your only choice would be to switch it with some of your statistics units. Just in regards to doing an extra year, even if you're...

No problem haha :).

Not an exaggeration unfortunately; most people I come across in lectures and tutorials keep to themselves, or converse with the friends they already have. That being said, while some people may not appreciate it, I certainly would if somebody broke the ice and initiated conversation with me. So...

Ah, degree planning. This is right up my alley :). So summarising the requirements for the B Science (Advanced Mathematics)/B Arts degree from the undergraduate handbook (http://sydney.edu.au/handbooks/arts/coursework/combined_degrees/b_arts_b_science.shtml), you need: 192 credit points all up...

All degrees (with the exception of some professional degrees like law or pharmacy) have electives. If you wish to take electives in econometrics without majoring in it, it's easy enough to do so.

Yeah MATH1904 hasn't been offered since 2007. It won't matter if you take a lower stream to begin with, in fact, there isn't actually any requirement that you do advanced junior maths at all. The Advanced Mathematics degree only requires you to do minimum 2 advanced intermediate maths subjects...

Not really. It's just a fancy title. But if you finish your first year with a distinction average you can transfer into the advanced maths stream if you wish.

Any maths subjects.

Re: Semester 2 USYD Chatter Thread Really? It's the first time it has happened to me and Carslaw is pretty much my second home haha.

Re: Semester 2 USYD Chatter Thread So, everybody just got evacuated from Carslaw. Anyone know what happened?

Really? I liked The Sapphires :). My group did the panel discussion on Thank You For Smoking and that was probably easier to analyse.

OK, then your plan sounds fine. Email the faculty first though.

Yeah there's no problem with extending your degree for longer than the standard amount, as long as you haven't exceeded the amount of credit points that you need for your degree. EDIT: That looks fine, double check with the faculty though. Are you able to do Summer/Winter School at all?

http://sydney.edu.au/handbooks/nursing/undergraduate/pre-registration/combined/b_science.shtml Progression Rules, Clause 2: So on the face of it, it doesn't look like you can change the structure. But definitely contact the nursing faculty to see if they're willing to be more flexible.

Re: Semester 2 USYD Chatter Thread It's not terrible, I miss the colour though. The maths department really needs to update its page. It could get by using Arial before, but now with the new background it just looks really tacky.

I believe someth1ng is doing environmental studies for one of his majors, so perhaps contact him if he doesn't reply here. Just on a general note, if you're solely going to be looking at environmental science for your degree, I would actually recommend against the environmental studies major. I...
