    Transition: HSC Maths to University Maths

    From my experience (pure maths/usyd): 1. I've never come across a lecturer who's clearer than their course notes, especially at 8 in the morning.

    Double degrees- A heavy load??

    A combined degree is not a heavier load. You're still doing the same number of subjects as you would be for a single degree. I did Engineering/Science and towards the end of my degree managed to work is such that I only had 2-3 days of uni a week (though I've been told this may be more...
