    Why was the 3 unit paper so hard?

    Its not a joke. They can make it as hard as they want, and its not like it wasnt expected given the ease of the other maths exams. It doesnt disadvantage anyone, a harder exam with align more.

    Where to study Computer Science then?

    So effectively, chose unsw because you'll get taught by Richard once, maybe twice in your 3-4 years of study? tbh, i've seen better

    Math Careers

    It depends what area of maths. Stats would get you the highest paying job straight out of uni in finance companies and such. Pure maths would probably lead you onto further studies beyond undergrad, but you also see a lot of gaming companies wanting pure maths students. Heres a few examples of...

    Continuous functions

    The 'proper' way to find if a function is continuous at a point is to find the limit on both sides at that point and show that equals the function value at that point, ie: lim(x->a-) f(x) = lim(x->a+) f(x) = f(a) As PC said, there are other sufficient conditions that imply continuity, such as...

    whats a good raw 4unit HSC mark?
