    Is it possible to enrol for MATH132 with 2UNIT Maths bridging courses?

    MATH135 is really easy if you put some effort into doing the work weekly and not fall behind. You just need basic knowledge of Logs, Exponentials, Differentiation/Integration (and i mean BASIC) and you're good to go. I made the mistake of messing around and being lazy for this subject and still...

    Questions regarding MATH123.

    I have a few questions regarding the MATH123 unit: 1) How hard is it? I've completed MATH135/MATH136 (Distinction/Credit) and currently doing MATH235(HD average right now). Would I be able to complete and get a D/HD with minimal effort with the skills I've gained from my other math courses...

    Didn't attend my Physics tutorial?

    PHYS143 Im assuming right? It shouldn't be a problem if you skip a few as long as you have at least 8 quiz completed or so. If you're unsure just send your current lecturer an email. (I think its James or Mark).

    Chemistry vs Physics. A few questions.

    Im looking to pursue either Physics or Chemistry as part of my dual degree (B.Eng and B.Sci). 1) Which would go well with a Mechanical Engineering major looking to work in the mining industry? (Speaking in terms of job opportunities, and just general cohesion with each other) 2) At an...

    Cheapest places to buy textbooks

    You have a few options: 1) Don't buy textbooks. 2) Make friends that have those textbooks for you to leech. 3) Don't buy textbooks. 4) Torrents. Did I mention don't buy textbooks? Because almost all of the materials covered in alot of subjects are widely available online.

    Petition - ATAR Should Not Affect University Options

    If you didn't know what you wanted to get into uni for by end of year 11, beginning of year 12, you probably shouldn't be in Uni straight after HS. 1) If you know a career path, say Engineering, you know you should be doing at least mathematics, mathematics X1 and even X2 combined with...

    American Wanting to Learn Australian Education System

    Can't answer everything, I don't think anyone can ^^. Can only give my personal experiences. High Distinction/ Distinction? Like someone said above, grades are super weird here. GPA: 50 = Pass(C to C+), 65=Credit(B to B+), 75= Distinction(A), 85= High Distinction(A+). A distinction is...

    Which offer should I pick? The offer from maq or uts?

    I faced this choice last year as well. I currently am doing Mechanical Engineering + Science (Looking at physics, could go Chemistry) at MQ with friends doing Engineering at USYD, UNSW and UTS. From speaking with them, it seems as though that UTS' math department is usually ahead (as in...

    Mathematics Bridging Course help.

    I reckon you should do MATH130 first. If you're good, you can learn the stuff that you are required to know in MATH135 in less than a week through textbooks and khan academy.

    why do fobby asians do that peace sign?

    I do it a lot, but in an ironic sense. People do it do it to express happiness (well at least i think so) I do it whenever I fail at a maths equation or Chem.

    So even if I analyse them well, I wont get good marks? Is there a reason for this or is just because teachers expect students to find their own stuff.
