Haha, I did most of the assessments this year by myself (i.e. very little copying) and I've gotten good marks. Lol Farmer's a cunt with that sort of stuff. Yeah, we have 2 papers which are 2 hours each (MC is worth 45 out of 105 marks) and I tend to be really good at acst multiple choice...

The tutes are enough? Sweet, generally I can do em. Is acst200 really THAT hard?

I haven't done enough of applied finance to give you the answer, but from my future study program, a lot of what I do is basically accounting.

The finals for this is coming up (as well as the other finals) and unlike my other subs, STAT272 is pretty tough + ambiguous. Does anybody who has done STAT272 before got any hints for the exam? Most people I know are pretty damn stressed about it.

I don't do accg310 yet so I can't give you hints, but I had to comment on how fantastic your username is. Lol.

I once had a dream where I woke up, saw that it was 3:30am and then went back to sleep. Which is pretty odd, coz not only am I awake at 3:30am every day, but having a dream where I dream about myself waking up is really odd lol.

Yes, but some schools have incredibly easy assessments, and some have needlessly hard assessments. It's inter-subject as well, I know because heaps of people in Economics at my school who got marks like 91/100 when in their HSC they achieved Band 5, and in Modern History, some guys who got in...

Yeah, but they don't inflate their cutoffs heaps. It's really unfair to people who get 96 UAI and live in a non-disadvantaged area who can't get into UTS, where people with 87 can simply coz they live where I do. We're not THAT disadvantaged. Hahaha, also, I love Actuarial Studies. Well, not...

Got up to level 4, then died and couldn't be bothered. By level 30, I'd imagine that it'd be pretty damn difficult.

Lol nah I figured that's what you meant (otherwise you wouldn't be posting on BOS). But if you could, seriously think about doing it at uni. Half the tutors I've had at uni have severe problems communicating, and you get good pay too, from what I hear.

Me too. I hate how its courses have high cutoff, but half my school gets in 10 points below, coz we're from a disadvantaged area. Seriously, there is NO way you should be able to get into law at UTS with 87 UAI when you have no handicaps throughout the year. That, and I don't really like the...

Even though you get the top exam mark as your assessment, if you come 1st internally, for the other ranks, yes, they do take difference into account for your individual subjects. The UAI itself is a direct rank, but for the individual subjects, differences apply.

me121 is pretty much on the money.

If you can speak proper english (I'm assuming you can), PLEASE apply. The amount of tutors in accounting units that have trouble speaking english is insane.

LOL, nice find.

I don't think it matters that much, coz they spoke to my friend about going really bad in all the online quizzes last year, and she still ended up with a pass (although a 50).

There's a combined Business Administration/Economics, I'm pretty sure of that. Not sure about Business Admin/Applied Finance.

I wouldn't say "you will have no influence from your school." Whatever the top mark is in your school for that subject becomes your assessment mark, and you keep your exam mark. The guy who topped english in my grade internally got like 92 or something for his assessment and only 84 on the final...

Well, the official requirements are a band 2 in 2unit maths, and if you don't accomplish this, you have to do MATH123. Then again, I think the threshold should probably be set a bit higher than a 50 in 2unit, which is pretty damn easy to get. You could find some trouble with units such as...

Yeah, nothing happens if they catch you, unless they catch you like 3 times lol. Such an annoying system, my friend almost forgot her card today, and mentioned that she's done it before (like a LOT of people I know). I prefer the password idea myself, such as how ISYS students get a passwork...
