    4 unit maths

    Yes, and lots of 'algebra and recognising stuff' is evil.

    How many Past Papers have you done?

    I managed a whole... hmm, pretty sure it was less than 10. Probably explains why I ended up in the bottom quartile of MX2 students.

    4 unit maths

    Extension 2 is to Extension 1 what Extension 1 is to 2 Unit. Conic sections are evil, as you'll quickly discover, but if you're good at Extension 1 you should be alright at Extension 2.

    How many Past Papers have you done?

    You're insane. :/

    Can we eat during lectures?

    Generally speaking it is technically against the rules for most lecture theatres - but since when has that stopped a uni student?

    ANU Chatter Thread

    Re: ANU 2011 Semester 1 Chatter Thread I want to implement all those extensions! It doesn't look too hard. I like the look of Assignment 3. Programming for an UltraSPARC, just because we can really.

    Re: ANU 2011 Semester 1 Chatter Thread What do you think of the 2300 assignment?

    Hsc rank query

    Yes, ultimately the moderation process only takes into account your rank (and relative difference between ranks).

    HSC Appeals

    It can't hurt to apply for Special Provisions. If your symptoms are as you say they are and you have evidence to back it up, they could give you extra time or similar provisions.

    Daily Telegraph Postcard Code

    Even if it's free, I still wouldn't read it... So? Reading sport news puts you on par with general Tele readers. :P

    Is it possible to not go to lectures and still do well?

    I did a course last semester where I attended the first lecture in week 1 and the last lecture in week 13, with nothing in the middle. Got 90. (Although that says more about the difficulty level of the course than anything else...)

    They've been to ANU. "Free Subscription Paid For By Your Uni" - no thanks, I'd rather my uni spend its money on something worthwhile. And you'd have to pay me to read the Tele.

    PLaying Games during the HSC

    3 hours a week is fine; actually, it's probably a good thing.

    ANU Chatter Thread

    Re: ANU 2011 Semester 1 Chatter Thread Mhm. If I do decide I want to do Algorithms I think I'd rather get a waiver than do 2100...

    ANU Chatter Thread

    Re: ANU 2011 Semester 1 Chatter Thread No, I'm not doing 2100. Why would I want to do 2100 when I've been programming since primary school? Unanimous opinion amongst people I've asked is that 2300 is orders of magnitude more interesting than 2100. Hope that's not the case for me...

    ANU Chatter Thread

    Re: ANU 2011 Semester 1 Chatter Thread MATH2301 is a pretty easy course and it's somewhat boring at the moment... Got into the Friday lab for 2300 when I really wanted the Wednesday afternoon one. :| That doesn't sound encouraging...

    Election Jobs

    Elections are Sat 26 March so it's not too late... from what I've heard of the AEC, I wouldn't be surprised if NSWEC job offers won't come out until next month sometime.

    ANU Chatter Thread

    Re: ANU 2011 Semester 1 Chatter Thread Ah, Analysis 1... so glad I'm not doing that. Doing Algebra 1 Honours in S2, that will be hard enough. You taking MATH2301 or COMP2300 by any chance?

    which is easier?

    Depends on your learning style and how you adapt to uni life as well. You have a lot more free time and a lot less handholding - some people find that great, others find it difficult. You do have the benefit of a lot more choice as to subjects so you can pick things you're actually interested...
