Re: B Commerce/Science(adv MATH)[UNSW] versus B Commerce/Science (USYD) - which one?H See here: http://www.maths.unsw.edu.au/currentstudents/admission-to-honours

Re: B Commerce/Science(adv MATH)[UNSW] versus B Commerce/Science (USYD) - which one?H Not really cos if you don't meet the WAM requirements for honours, you get kicked out of adv. maths anyway. It's not really that much harder getting into honours from science than from adv. maths.

Re: B Commerce/Science(adv MATH)[UNSW] versus B Commerce/Science (USYD) - which one?H The name of the degree is rather insignificant, rather its the courses you do that matters. A person doing a science degree with a major in maths can choose all the "advanced" math courses and hence there is...

Re: B Commerce/Science(adv MATH)[UNSW] versus B Commerce/Science (USYD) - which one?H There is no significant difference between doing an "advanced maths" degree and doing a science degree with a major in maths. Do this.

Or else you have 2 different perpendiculars from z3 to the vector z1 (one at z2+z1 and the other at z2) which is impossible edit: nevermind, you already said it

Read right hand column of progression guide. It's still 24 units of credit per semester so it's not overloading. Some subjects are only worth 3 units of credit and hence you do 2 of them.

Not really related I think. Although you said you have an interest in law, but you need to ask yourself whether it is worth the extra 1.5 years of study.

I can only say for UNSW but here is my 2 cents: Teaching quality - most lecturers are very knowledgeable and engaging in lectures. Course Variety - Quite limited in some areas to be honest, especially with regards to higher level courses. Of course you can always talk lecturers into letting you...

rearrange |z_1-z_2|+|z_2|\geq |(z_1-z_2)+z_2|=|z_1| which comes from the triangle inequality

For commerce degrees, differences between ANU and UNSW are negligible. For actuarial majors, ANU is also accredited by the institute so its fine. If you have to move to Canberra, ANU is perfectly respectable.

Probability= (Number of odd integers < 7000) / (Number of integers less than 7000) To find number of integers less than 7000, we consider the cases: - Number of 1 digit integers (all less than 7000) = 5 - Number of 2 digit integers (all less than 7000) = 5*4 = 20 (five digits to choose from...

pretty much this

You don't really learn much about finance in uni purely because its not really a traditional academic subject like maths, sciences, arts. So what you learn in finance at uni doesn't reflect truly what working in the finance industry is like. You learn the most about finance through actually...

I assume you are yet to start uni. Correct me if I am wrong. You don't really choose your majors until second year. First year is about getting the cores done. Do MATH1151/MATH1251 first as part of the actuarial major. If you enjoy MATH1251 and do well in it, then do maths. If not, try...

Remember integration reverses the differentiation process integrate d^2y/dx^2 to get dy/dx=8x+C (don't forget constant of integration) Then sub x=1 and dy/dx=0 into above to get 0=8+C -> C=-8 Then apply the same process again to find that y=4x^2-8x+7

For the first one, there are 2 cases: (i)I precedes E (ii) E precedes I. By symmetry, there should be exactly the same number of arrangements for (i) and (ii). Hence: number of arrangements = total arrangements/2 = 7!/2=2520

COMP1911 is already pretty useful in itself, particularly for those with no programming background. Unless you plan on majoring in computer science, there isn't much added benefit in doing COMP1917 over COMP1911. You could always teach yourself the rest of C once you know the basics.

This (especially for more pure maths subjects like MATH2111 and MATH2601). The higher level of maths you go, the greater the emphasis is on rigour in proofs and arguments. Discrete maths serves as a good foundation for this.

COMP1911 is confirmed WAM booster.

The only course that is somewhat exclusive to the quant risk program (though I'm sure the school of maths will let anyone do it if they ask) is MATH2881 and from what I have heard, you don't learn much in it. Otherwise, they do the same subjects as those doing maths and finance.
