    How hard is Actuarial Studies

    Let me guess... Pauline Hanson? no, wait...Amanda Vanstone... :eek: Anyways, don't be scared of Actuarial Studies. I only did 3U maths (like t-i-m-m-y) and it's good to give yourself a challenge in life. Set yourself a goal and see if you can surpass it, otherwise, why bother...

    How hard is Actuarial Studies

    Here is Quiz 1 from ACTL1001 (Average 40.24, minimum mark 2, maximum mark 84) and as an added bonus, here's Assignment 1, which I haven't started on O_o

    Help! Help for Actuarial study

    Lol, why would I ask Sachi? He said we can keep the test paper...so its assumed anyone can have a breeze through it. But, it's in the best interests imho to give future actuary students some exposure of what's in store before taking the "leap of faith" with Sachi...

    Help! Help for Actuarial study

    Owie Owie, Sachi pwned me in today's quiz 1, but I've gotta admit it was easier than 2004's quiz... I've failed, that's for sure ~30/100; but ended with a high on Trenerry's Algebra test. Should I buckle down for the next 10 weeks, and cram more? I feel ACTL1001 is like FINS1612- very...

    Yes there is, not from Central Station though.... Get to Museum Station (Cnr Liverpool and Elizabeth Sts) and catch the 394 (around 5.35am) which gets to UNSW Anzac Pde around 5.50am... The next bus is 30mins, but then you'll be late...hope this helps... ;)

    Urgent: Getting to Racecourse from Bondi

    hehe, FINS1612 is killing everyone... The 348 Bondi Jn Interchange to Alexandria, goes right by Alison Rd...and the entrance to the racecourse, BUT its only available in PEAK HOURS so its only good when you finish the exam...( the last bus leaves Bondi at 8.20am LOL) The best one is...

    Overloading Question

    Full fee as in? HECS upfront fees (ie Band 2 subjects: $684 for 6UOC), or Full Fees (no exceptions) (ie Band 2 subjects: $2340 for 6UOC)?

    Overloading Question

    Just a small query, suppose a typical BCom degree requires 144UOC, and you overload within the 3 years say 6UOC; Then, you have 150UOC...is that permitted, and I presume we have to pay for the extra 6UOC you have done? Also, on your degree testamur then, do they not recognise the extra...

    anyone ready for MATH1151?

    Haha, don't stress out... Just try and pass (like answer about 2/3 to 3/4 of the exam)...and you'll probably get a credit. I think 1151 will get scaled (somewhere on the maths website, it says there are more Ds and HDs given out compared to 1131/1141) :uhhuh: Get good night sleep, and...

    Help! Help for Actuarial study

    You have the most terrible luck, MATH1141/MATH1151 do not get offered in S2, only S1 each year. MATH1241/MATH1251 are offered in S2 only...and are prerequisites of the above. Only MATH1131/MATH1231 are offered in both S1 & S2. So, essentially S2, 2005: Do ACTL1001 and ECON1203 (QMB)...

    FINS1612 (Cap Markets) anyone?

    Andrew Ross was great; very helpful tutor...doesn't force anyone to participate, and reluctantly writes the answers onto the whiteboard...usually done in 30-40 minutes, instead of the full 50 minutes required. More tips to the FINS1612 exam, since Andrew read over it the day before of our...

    hi...if ur really desparate in doing actuarial studies, by all means try out ACTL1001 in Semester 2, but a lot of what we've done in MATH1151 atm will lead on to this stuff...especially probability... On the plus side, there is no prerequisite in doing ACTL1001, but MATH1151 is only offered...
