    Actuarial studies

    If you want a job comfortablyafter graduating, get above average marks and couple that with good extracurricular activities and work experience. Work on and fine tune your people skills.

    FIN310 halp

    Make sure you understand whatever notes they give out. Thats all the advice that can be given. It wasn't as good a course as I expected nor as organised or structured as one would think a uni course should be.

    looking for a job over 100k when graduate?

    Be good at what you do, get the right experience, look for the right opportunities and 100k could be possible in most fields.

    non recent school leaver

    Hey, I'm in my final year of uni and decided I want to try get into dentistry since I actually want a job where I can see myself helping people and still be paid decently. I recently sat for gamsat for graduate entry into med/dent but found that it was very hard. Anyone know what sort...

    Actuarial Studies/Applied Finance at Mac Uni

    Only 53 people responded, suggesting that maybe only half of the graduates responded. So out of the group who didn't respond to the survey, it would seem logical to assume that there'd be a higher proportion who didn't find a full time position than those who did. There's no harm in applying...

    What's your job and how much you earn?

    You get 17/hr and work whenever you want. Why need a new job? castle hill would likely just be retail/customer service work. since you're doing education, you could try applying at child care centres in the area?

    crazy lady at work

    There are all sorts of people in this life. Some people can let things blow past them, some just have to make their thoughts put across no matter how unreasonable the rest of the world sees it. I went to a local library once in the middle of the day. Nowadays, local libraries have mums who...

    O week - Do we still attend our lectures?

    You're in first year so you might as well attend everything just to get to know where to go.

    STAT170 or STAT171

    stat171 shouldn't be chosen unless you WANT a challenge.

    Question: Tutes first week?

    Re: Question... Week 1 has no tutes unless they specify that there are tutes. Actuarial subjects generally also have tutes in the first week.

    Rant about Epping Road

    Basically the end section of Epping Road in Sydney used to be 2-3 lanes (each way) leading to the city. BUT after building the Lane Cove tunnel they decided to cut down the lanes of Epping Road to make it into 1 bus lane+1 car lane (each way). Toll roads are meant to be faster but you pay for...

    where do we get our cityrail concession stickers

    Yeah, it's in C5C rooms. Go to the old ERIC room to get that tiny 2008 sticker for your student card and one of the rooms next to old ERIC has the City Rail sticker.

    Studying late?

    Well I'm studying the actuarial studies course. But it won't mean I'm going to become an actuary. heheh Since getting into uni, I've always wanted to go into health but didn't even try transferring or anything. So this year I decided to give it a go.

    Studying late?

    hahah, its not for the semester's subjects. I'm going to sit the gamsat. Yes, I hate people who hog the rooms and don't use it properly.

    Studying late?

    Yeah, I wanted to do some late night study now, before semester starts.

    Studying late?

    Hi, I was wondering if our uni still has rooms that are open late (10pm+) and are for general student use and not by specific faculty? Library closes at 6pm now and it kind of sucks. Thanks

    2nd year in B ACST

    I'd second the notion of not buying the STAT271/272 textbook. accg253 book can be good if you use it.

    2nd year in B ACST

    ACCG253- Most actuarial students would find this subject easy. I went to the first lecture and the last lecture and the tutes were compulsory so you kind of keep up with the workload. ACST200- I only got a pass in this, it's tough because the lecturer makes the exam hard. You won't get the CR...
