Yep you can, like for me I did 117 CPs but you gotta call up e-student each time after you've done the 96th credit point to enrol in the units for you manually.

Semester 1, 2010 ACST400 FIN310 Lol my last semester in uni and the only one where I haven't done 5 units. So happy.

Haha nah, its a rite of passage for all 1st year 2nd sem actuarial studies students

If we begin our Part IIs in 2009, then we need need do an Investments Bridging Course as well. However, if you begin your Part IIs from 2010 onwards, it will be split into two parts: part 2a which consist of the current form of part II (control cycle) and part 2b which consist of an investments...

What about competency based questions? Were these market questions mainly in 1st round or 2nd round of interviews?

Just curious, for future reference, what type of questions were asked in say the first and second round of interviews? (particularly DB ones)

Lol, 1 more semester with Jiwook in 305. And trust me, stochastic calculus is not exactly fun (well it kinda is).

Lol, 1st round of DB interviews (global markets) are today. Too bad I'm out of the country, gotta skip it. sigh

Yeah according to the rules, as long as you get above 60 in stat272 and obtain an average of 65 with stat271, then you'll get the exemption. But I felt 271 was a much crazier paper, could be because it was my third exam in a row, or the lecturer just zoomed pass multiple regression. @ascentyx...

Sounds reasonable, guess the keyword here is average and that the salaries are skewed on each side. Just running some quick numbers, and you basically need say 1 top level employee earning $10 mil and 12 others earning $150k each to have an average of $900k per employee.

Nice! I heard from a friend that assignment marks weren't inputted for some, that could be the case for you (althought not for me).

Unless if you have someone doing a double with law.

I was looking through the unit outlines and STAT278 and 378 both involved using MATLAB and a couple of other software, but which one has a greater emphasis of MATLAB?

Its pretty redundant having done stat171

So its the time of the year again when I have to choose electives for my semester. I am currently at the following: 1. COMP115 Introduction to Comsci 2. COMP155 Introduction to Comsci (Advanced) 3. STAT278 Computer Simulation 4. STAT279 Operations Research 1 5. STAT378 Statistical Computing 6...

It all depends on your preferences like do you want to cook or have catered food. I used to live in DLC and it was pretty convenient that all meals are catered except for Saturday dinners. Also, there would be a cleaner coming in each week just to clean your room and toilet, etc. Problem was...

Well its not true that no other uni does an SNG like system for grading. You can read more about it here Bell curve grading - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. I also remeber getting curved for my grades back in high school. Heres also an interesting article about grade inflation and deflation...

Lol where did the comment about Jewish people come from? I did ECON201 last year and it was pretty easy especially how in the last few weeks Alex Blair gave those handouts summarizing each section with diagrams of the models, etc. As for ACCG253, if you like finance it shouldn't be a problem...

Re: The old end of semester / mark prediction thread ACST255 D ACST305 D ECON360 HD MATH236 D STAT271 CR Pretty darn happy abt stat, thought I wasn't going to pass it

(NVM mistook econ360 for econ350)
