    What career would you pursue if you knew you couldn't fail?

    Coach of a football team. Live out those aspirations I only simulate in Career Mode in FIFA games. Actually that'll get boring because I know I'll win regardless. So that said, I want a field where success is something needed but something where I'll always be surprised at the same time on...

    Transferring and UOC

    I transferred in to Arts/Maths and had to do first-year English courses in my second year. If that happened to you, you'd have to do it in the next year and delay something else. It'll just re-arrange your subject selection most likely - but the best way to check is to plan your entire degree...

    For popular courses, cut-offs rise in later rounds due to lower numbers of spots available.

    In 2011, nope. Special lectures yeah... we had Jim Franklin talk to us about applied maths and its uses.

    Least favourite maths topic.

    ^ that. Consumer Arithmetic - so bland. Simple Harmonic Motion - ugh (it's probably the root of why I don't really like differential equations) Conics - I never got the point of it, other than neat results and messy algebra

    Last movie you watched? And what you thought of it?

    Passenger 57: I can't help but draw parallels with it and Air Force One. I kinda liked Air Force One more... this one seemed a bit rushed, to me.

    Enrolling in courses that do not follow your program strucutre?

    Those biomedical engineering subjects he posted: MATH1131 PHYS1121 ENGG1000 , would be fine, I think.

    Enrolling in courses that do not follow your program strucutre?

    I think you actually can. It's just a matter if you meet prerequisites. So no enrolling in say... MATH3611 for instance unless you did the relevant second year subjects. Though if you don't follow your program structure - you'll be at uni longer. Obvious exception is if you're wanting to...

    jobs for Bsci (advanced maths)??

    Personally I find the job opportunities for maths degrees sufficient. There are people in need of people who aren't scared of numbers. After all, when you bring up that you do maths to random members of the general public - aren't we all mostly or usually met with: "Ohh... maths? I hated/wasn't...

    What careers are in high demand?

    You can't really predict the employment market in four or five years when you do graduate so... it's not really going to help you, I think.

    Assumed Knowledge

    Well did you do 2u Mathematics? If you did, you would've covered the basic stuff you need to know. Essentially for Commerce it's very simple maths like Trans4M said. Basic algebra, basic manipulations of equations and the like.
