    ANU - B commerce

    glad to hear mate. personally i find canberra a nice place to study... most of the population are educated public-servants, roads are nice and easy to drive on, buses are pretty damn good, and ANU is a damn-fine university in itself. three years living in canberra won't hurt you, plus sydney is...

    ANU - B commerce

    you seem to have a habit of selectively reading posts you like, which allows you to grasp at straws when posting your own post. ANU's UAIs are NOT a function of supply and demand. at another university they ARE. at ANU they are NOT. demand can go up and at ANU, the score will remain STATIC...

    B Business, estimated UAI Cutoff

    bonus points for actuarial studies

    what do you know about actuarial studies? i think having half my mates in their third year of the degree, i'd know a little more about it than someone who's yet to finish their HSC. :rolleyes:

    bonus points for actuarial studies

    yes but i wouldn't consider it. actuarial studies is an absolutely insane degree by 2nd year, so if your UAI isn't touching on 100, you may have trouble (let alone getting a UAI of <95). also if you do acturial studies you'd want to aim to be in the top 20% of your year so you can get into...

    easiest asian language?

    chinese isn't a language mate. cantonese is pretty much only useful if you want to work in HK. Mandarin is useful if you want to work around asian countries. so Mandarin >>>> cantonese in terms of usefulness. i'd honestly be surprised if ANU even offered courses on cantonese.

    Summer School

    not sure, but for commerce subjects you certainly can't. http://cbe.anu.edu.au/Current_Students/general_info/summer_school.asp actually unless my googling skill sucks... i can only find info on ANU's summer school only for CBE units :/...

    don't try and act like a turbo when you're don't know what you're talking about. B Finance > B commerce (Finance) B Fin is a specialised degree which focuses on finance. you do more finance units than what a B Comm schmoe would do, and you specialise even further by majoring in either a...

    Summer School

    some courses i know are exam only. so you are literally paying $2500 to sit a 3-hour exam. imagine screwing that up lol

    Summer School

    you're happy to pay 4x the amount to do a course which has been butchered down in terms of content?

    Summer School

    you're pretty stupid if you're considering voluntary summer school because: 1. they cost $2.5k each to do 2. a lot of them are taught in "intensive" mode, i.e. 13 weeks of material halved into 7 or 8 weeks

    Your feelings towards internationals.

    yeah fuck them for being so studious and getting marks twice the marks i get. fuck them for studying and giving a shit about their degrees when i'm out getting wasted on a tuesday night with my 40% assignment due next day. fuck them because they can't speak their second language well even though...

    Uni mathematics

    IQR = interquartile range in uni generally first years take quantitative methods which is extremely easy stats. no calculus involved, and 1/3 of the course is hypothesis testing. dead easy stuff. usually that's where MOST people finish in terms of doing statistics units. after quantitative...

    What to DO at ANU?

    you can get by doing finance/commerce/accounting/marketing with math methods i reckon. not even that, maths applications (if they still have it... it's one level below methods) could get you by.

    do i have to buy a Good Universities Guide

    ask yourself: will you be the type of person who will be influenced heavily (maybe even to the point of moving interstate) based on what a book says? if yes, buy it. if no, don't.

    Why take subjects at the Advanced level?

    not necessarily. some uni's don't give a rat's ass if 60% fail, your mark is just your raw mark in all assessment items. some unis structure their honours level so it's just the normal level plus some advanced stuff. if you fail the honours level and pass the normal level i believe you can...
