same, but Estel is a guy. Even if you have great academic ability, modesty is always good.
im not sure if B Adv maths is similar... but i have heard about acturial studies n they seem very similar. i hear acturial had like a 75% drop out rate. question wot uniz offer acturial studies and wot are the uai required????wrx said:ah ok, so its sort of like acturial?
u hate calculations and yu are doin ext 1 maths... pffff drop all subject that have nething 2 do with maths... that mean no maths, physics, chem, Bio(would u believe), eco etc... lol are you sure u typed the right word???tamz said:Perhaps pick up ext 2 english, if I can cope. Maybe ext for ancient as well. Drop physics & maybe ext maths - can't stand calculations! We haven't even receieved any info on this yet! Don't know what to do..
Eco does have maths in it.. there is a little in high school, prob same as phy or chem... but latter on in uni there is an huge amount of maths in it... it is simple maths, stuff that i can do but your are introduced 2 new formulas...Sarah168 said:To clear up a big misconception: ECONOMICS BARELY HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH MATHS!
The most I've ever done in almost two years of Economics is basic Yr 7 algebra or simple equation solving. As in, bring this to the other side by minusing it
I originally didnt want to do eco cos, "wah wah, I cant do maths! I suck at maths! it's all finanical stuff!"
Yes, there is a topic on financial markets but it's not what you think it is. Analysis and synthesising essay skills are MUCH more important in eco.
So I may not hate all calculations, just some for specific subjects.JamiL said:u hate calculations and yu are doin ext 1 maths... pffff drop all subject that have nething 2 do with maths... that mean no maths, physics, chem, Bio(would u believe), eco etc... lol are you sure u typed the right word???

true...Slide Rule said:If you have the motivation, then I suggest you go for it. With that kind of motivation, it's not a matter of doing well in year 11, it's a matter of reading ahead, devoting a lot of ime to mathematics, and finally consistently going over it.
mate sorry im goin 2 have to disagree with you here. if you are doin 3u maths and trying hard, but still only do avg, dont even think about 4u. if u are not putting in and are doin avg then i say try harder and then make up ur mind. but dont listen no me slide rule or any1 else, u will know if yu are capable of doin 4u... my heart has always told me to do it. it has been somthing i have wanted 2 do since i was in Yr7. i then listen to people and started douting my ability, it wasnt till this year, that i started putting the effort 4 maths and i have seen the results.Slide Rule said:If you have the motivation, then I suggest you go for it.

i no some1 that dopped 4u maths 2 dayz b4 the exam?? wots the go there?afta??? said:true...
n if u really don't like it later on ... then drop it...no one's gonna stop u
u have until two weeks b4 the hsc to drop ny subjects
so i would say ... give it a try
hmm i kinda agree with u, i mean ive been telling ppl that im gonna do 4u maths for years now, but then after ending up with so many units i completely stopped considering it. i do like maths heaps, and maybe everyone else in my class does have a tutor, but i admit im not performing to the highest of my ability. guess having 16 units does that to you. thats the only thing that discourages me from doing 4u maths, i mean, im still trying to figure out what to drop... :|JamiL said:mate sorry im goin 2 have to disagree with you here. if you are doin 3u maths and trying hard, but still only do avg, dont even think about 4u. if u are not putting in and are doin avg then i say try harder and then make up ur mind. but dont listen no me slide rule or any1 else, u will know if yu are capable of doin 4u... my heart has always told me to do it. it has been somthing i have wanted 2 do since i was in Yr7. i then listen to people and started douting my ability, it wasnt till this year, that i started putting the effort 4 maths and i have seen the results.
