so did you get the coop for actuarial or finance? i'm a bit confused... so you can't do a combined degree with a coop but you can do 2 majors in the same degree?

just when i thought i had finished and walked out the room, they chased me halfway around the building just when i was about to leave the uni to tell me they forgot to look at the last page and left out a few questions... so i went back in while they were interviewing another person halfway...

just do a simple binary search here's a very similar problem: You're a govt spy performing a sting operation on a mafia group that has mass produced counterfeit diamonds. when you break into their hideout, you attempt to find the 2 real diamonds among 10,000 fakes. unfortunately they all...

actually 2006 will be the 11th consecutive yr in which ruse will top the state (we started in 1996). i doubt ruse will lose its position in the foreseeable future since its very difficult to stop the ball once it's moving great hsc results --> great reputation --> most popular high school...

normally, the first 10 questions are completely trivial, then q11-20 are a bit harder, but still easy, and the last 10 actually require a bit of time and for you to think. just make sure you get the first 20 right and do 5 of the last 10 you it should be enough to get you a prize, maybe even a...

Why do so many textbooks confuse the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle with the observer effect? The uncertainty principle in quantum mechanics is sometimes erroneously explained by claiming that the measurement of position necessarily disturbs a particle's momentum eg by using a high frequency...
