Apologies if what I said was insulting. I was simply quoting a person who did actuarial studies with econometrics. I believe he was making a reference to the fact that econometrics involves the application of principles in actuarial studies on a simpler scale. He described econometrics as a "WAM...

Ok, so right now, I am jumping between Actuarial/Sci and Actuarial/Finance. The problem with Actuarial/Finance is that I want part 2 exemptions, and you can get those with a combined degree, which is shifting the balance to science. When it comes to science there's a course in advanced...

Um I hear that the stuff covered in econ1203 is covered in a few weeks in math1251. So you'd be missing the stuff we're learning in math1151. I think you should try and change the course to math1151 otherwise you've wasted half a year... XD

Heya :D First off, I <3 maths, it's the subject I'm best at and I actually understand it. Now with that out of the way, I want to be in a quantitative role in the financial world i.e. risk analysis and all that jazz. Basically my two loves are maths and economics so looking at companies and the...

Re: acct1501,acct1511,econ1101,econ1102,math1151,1251, actl1001,acct2542textbook ,che I'm interested in the Math1151 book, do you still have it for sale. Is it contacted and unhighlighted?

Nope :( I think her friends are international students :S

wtf... i got 99.5 and didn't get a 2nd round offer for unsw law...

I applied for Comm/sci, but now I want to switch to swap to comm/eco. The problem is that both of these courses come under the banner of Comm at UNSW and I was wondering whether I could change it at myunsw? Thanks in advance :)

Yeah I got the letter :( My friend told me two of her friends got into UNSW law, one had a 95.65 ATAR and the other had 97.15. FML

I'm hoping to transfer next year to comm/law and am fairly confident of getting in, given i missed this year's cutoff by 0.05. With comm/law im not sure whether I am majoring in finance or actuarial. So I'm wondering whether I should do Math1151 (Mathematics for Actuarial Studies and Finance 1A...

Mathematics Though I'm planning on transferring to comm/law the next year, and I'm fairly confident I can make it given i missed the cutoff by 0.05 Planning on going into IB.

Is econ1202 a good elective? It sounds very interesting from the description, even though it isnt a comm/sci course. Well at least for me it sounds far more interesting than econ1203. I'm doing comm/sci btw.

Darn! I'm currently wondering whether I should enrol in courses now, because I want to be with friends in lectures and tutorials XD But apparently if you do get a late round offer, if you've already enrolled, there's a lot more paperwork XD

Lol I see what you mean, it's also partly because I want to attend law lectures with a special someone :) Regardless it's a lot easier for me if i get straight in. Not to mention my parents will be infinitely happier XD

Hey Jade it's leon =P Highly recommend Jade, highly intelligent and nice person. Works very hard and can assure you of VERY good results :)

Does calling up and begging for a place work? =X Accepted Comm/sci for the meantime though ><

Amazed at sudden increase in law 99.55 UNSW (+0.15) 99.65 USYD(+0.1)

Didn't make UNSW either, law is getting retardedly hard to get into. 99.55 is a ridiculous increase in ATAR requirement.

Thank you all, you make me feel more comfortable. Though I really prefer not transferring, praying to straight get in 2nd round atm. Credit average enough? I hope so, I'm so burnt out from the hsc, cant think properly anymore....

Ok, I shall accept the offer. Still can't believe how the law cut off went up 0.15...I was expecting to come home happy... Assuming I do get rejected from law, then with a D average in Comm/sci, is law in 2011 a definite in?
