    What you hate about UNSW

    Tbh the 12 week semesters are the only thing i like atm. I'm all for one less month at uni a year. Last I checked stuvac is exactly as long as it always is, exams always started on the thursday after final week of semester, and from what i remember seeing on the academic calendar, this year is...

    What you hate about UNSW

    - Taking almost 2 hours to get there by train+bus when i can drive there in 30 mins - It seems in my classes there are more people who are fluent in other languages than those that are in english - The mass number of people who are now in 4th year and still have no clue how to do things they...

    MATH1141 or MATH1131

    1141 is a harder version of 1131, simple as that. The content you learn is almost the same, and for the main part the end exam you do will be almost the same. There are not many things that require you to do the harder version, most people in there you'll find do it because they're good at maths...

    Feas

    1. You may not need it directly, but it ties in with everything indirectly. Its amazing how many people do not even know what the abstract definition of a limit is, even though they use limits almost every time they do a question involving mathematics. Knowing why something works makes learning...

    Feas

    First year at unsw teaches mathematical fundamentals. A lot of the things it covers are highly abstract (things people would consider being useless for their degree). But it does so for a reason, because it makes further study in maths easier. The first year maths subjects engineering students...

    WIll i be fine?

    There are a huge amount of people doing first year maths at unsw that havent done extension 1. UNSW will not force you to take a bridging course. Only do it if you think it will make you more comfortable. If you're capable at 2 unit maths (ie not failing it) then I think you'll be ok.

    Question on Engineering flexible first year

    You will be behind after first year, but it is not an extra year. You'll still graduate on time. The reason for this is you normally have a certain amount of 'free' subjects through your degree that you can basically take whatever you want. In flexible first year you pretty much use most of...

    lol, no. Comparing the two maths is stupid. I've done both and they're clearly different.

    BE/Bsc Science majors

    http://www.handbook.unsw.edu.au/undergraduate/programs/2008/3746.html The website of the course you want. In it, it states "In all, a minimum of 102 Units of Credit of Science courses must be taken within the combined program, which must include a Science Major defined in Table A in the...

    Question about Assumed Knowledge

    You'll be fine. If anything, year 11 physics is more relevant than year 12 to first year. Don't bother bridging, your math ext 1 and ext 2 will be more than enough. Mathematical background going into engineering is much, much more important than some general physics knowledge you get from the HSC.

    any1 MAJORING in mathematics?

    Agreed ^^ I dont get along with many of the maths majors. I dont find what they laugh about funny. Their conversations are boring, more often than not its typically about some sort of extracurricular math (which is ok in moderation, but not all the time). Theres a few in 3rd year that are...
