[redruM]

me and a friend of mine are looking to buy the following texts:

econ111 (2)
econ141
acst211 (do you even need a text for this?)
accg105 (whole package except gen skills book)

i've already contact a couple of people but any others with useless piles of papers which are prescribed for these subjects let me know.
thanks

also, this thread can be used as a discussion place for other negotiations too, if you like. a temp buy/sell thread.

ppl do stats for FUN ??

The reference was to Stat171 which is a harder version of Stat170, so people who aren't doing Actuarial at Macq can choose to do the easier alternative. Which is where the "fun" reference came in.

 

[MuSaRuRWa]

ah ok, im now understandn' flyin'

 

[iambored]

and it seems he was doing it for fun then

 

[flyin']

I don't know.. he might have wanted to do Actuarial. Dunno.

 

[flamin']

.. or he's a stats addict

 

[flyin']

Is that possible, tho ^o)

 

[redruM]

stop tryin to guess why i did it....even i dont know anymore....i wanted to do actuarial at one stage, but now i dont know anymore...basically did it to keep my options open.
it was hard no doubt, but it was one of the most interesting subjects i did. my other ones were all boring. hope i pass though, i bludged too much.

Acst151 > Comp115 > Stat171 > Accg100
(in terms of interesting-ness)

In terms of bludginess in Stat171, I think last year, everyone got a wake-up call in their second midsemester. So that was about 10 weeks worth of bludging =D (I barely passed that)

Our textbooks will accumulate in value.. it'll be like, I used "this" textbook to get to where I am today =p okay, that doesn't work, but...

 

[redruM]

amount i learnt in comp115 = 0.
thats coz i had done the same thing in prelim and hsc sdd for programming in c++. the only extra thing they did was class, which i had a very small understanding of. comp was interesting but in the sense that it was easy to do.
stat was challenging interesting.
