Stop talking like you know everything when you clearly don't.

yeah it really depends, I've gotten 2 years through an actuarial degree without even bringing a pen to the lectures lol. (all of our content is online + all the learning is done through the comprehensive lecture notes and tutorials)

omg is this THE richard buckland. i'm an actuarial + comp sci student at macquarie and I've watched a few of your lectures on youtube. keep up the great work.

You're making the mistake of assuming raw marks = SNG. There's a secret scaling process that goes on after the raw marks of all the subjects are attained, so just because you seem to be going better in one doesn't necessarily mean that you will get a higher SNG for that subject.

normally HD is 85+

I've heard that 252 is a more mathematical version of 253 that is meant to bridge the gap between the 200 and 300 level finance units. I didn't find the maths in the subject difficult, but keep in mind I'm doing an actuarial degree so I'm meant to be decent at maths. The final exam was mostly...

acst202 hd stat272 d accg252 d comp115 hd (99 :D) i was so lucky with stat (choked in the final).

As far as I know 252 is a more mathematical version of 253, with the purpose of bridging the diffculty gap between the 2nd and 3rd year units. source: I did 252 last sem,

You expanded (12y + 13)^2 as 144y^2 - 312y + 169 instead of 144y^2 + 312y + 169

It's meant to be 9067 not 9057 :P Alternatively you can work in quarters rather than years. 4.6% p.a. compounded quarterly = 1.15% per quarter effective (dividing by 4). PV = 9067 (v^-16 + v^-32 + v^-48 + v^-64) @ 1.15% PV = 9,067[(1.15)^-16 + (1.15)^-32 + (1.15)^-48 + (1.15)^-64]

Don't buy the 101 book - the lecture notes/tutes/quizzes are good enough to get you any mark.

Did some pretty sick statisticsssssssssssssssss

I'll just turn 21 - 4 year degree.

You need to listen to some good deathcore. The vocals are amazing - as are the breakdowns. YouTube - All Shall Perish - Awaken the Dreamers YouTube - All Shall Perish - Better Living Through Catastrophe

Yeah like most people have said don't worry about being a little bit late to lectures. I would only advise coming earlier on assessment days etc.

For the econ111 and econ110 book just get the newest one in a pack (i wouldn't use older editions cause some of them are missing some topics etc). Also don't buy the stat171 book, i bought it and it was the biggest waste of money for me (never opened it). Source: I'm a 2nd year acst and app fin...

I got invited as well for getting a Merit award (4gpa in 1st year). Should be fun i guess.
