    Economics vs Econometrics vs Quantitative Business Analysis vs Financial Mathematics

    So I'm starting a Commerce/Science degree at USyd this year and I'm not 100% sure what majors I wanna do. I'm leaning pretty heavily towards Finance which sounds fine to me so far. But I also want to do some quantiative stuff. So my options are to combine Finance and a 2nd commerce major with...

    Commerce vs Comm/Science (Mathematics) vs Comm/Science (Adv. Mathematics)

    So, I'm trying to figure out whether I should do a combined science degree. I think that I want to, but am slightly concerned it could hamper my GPA if I want to transfer after my first year. I did 4U maths (84 exam mark) and 3U maths (92 exam mark). Would that be good enough to do...

    Do I need to think about HSC marks at all right now?

    Hey BoS, I keep hearing people talking about getting so and so band or mark in the HSC while I really have no idea about how all that crap works. I mean I understand that 90-100 is band 6 and E4 is for extension, scaling, how ATAR is calculated etc. etc. but not so much with what kind of HSC...

    Need some motivation going into HSC year!

    Hey all, just finished my prelim and did atrociously. About middle of the year in the half yearlies and even worse in the yearlies. I think I relied too much on cramming in the yearlies (making notes the night before), studied hard for only the month before exams, not nearly as much before that...
