[lawforever]

Wat u guys feel abt the lecture of Algebra?

They teaching us the basic arithmetics....., although for the vectors....


also 4 the calculus, these lub things r not in the course pack, rite?

mg, I m a bit confused with these uni maths.
Wondering how hard iz the real actuarial maths gonna be like

its only 2nd week
In 2nd semester, ACTL1001 becomes incredibly hard

 

[Constip8edSkunk]

the assumption is that we know 3U maths and thats it so it wont b super-OMFG-hard straight away. Theyre gonna build the foundations 1st. But from ppl ive talked 2, it gets harder, but mainly cuz of the workload. Didnt 1 of the lecturer say that 1151 has 20% more stuff tahn higher maths...?

anyway are you doing actl/law? o_0

 

[redslert]

lol i'm having small problems with Math1151...
only reason is that i hardly remember any of the 3u stuff, let alone the 4u!!
also i was still in holiday mode last week/weekend, with F1 going on and all didn't even do any work! didn't do the tut questions for calculus but it was alrite....

but now i think i'll start getting stuck into it!
i finally relised how uni piles the work on you FAST! i'm behind in every subject...need to catch up already
but dam 9am maths lectures really suck!

 

[kaseita]

did u guys get lecture notes in your course pack?
we didn't get any when we did the subject!

u should find that in first sem, calculus is harder than alg, and in second, the reverse (mainly cause alg is more definitions and memory in 2nd...unless u like that stuff)

also, u can expect to learn extra stuff that other people would normally learn in 2nd and 3rd year (in both math1151 and 1251)

the first 2-3 weeks of math is fine (just revision). u should be worried about the weeks after, cause unless ur diligent, u'll find ur very very far behind!

 

[lawforever]

Sounds so scary.
But the thing worries me more is the computing stuff. I dun have any idea of wat a matrix is.
Btw, Did you second year ppl buy the Matlab at school?
160 bucks.... even more expensive than Windows XP......

 

[cyrax83]

warez

 

[Constip8edSkunk]

burner.

 

[redslert]

lol buy software heheh what a funny man

 

[Mill]

Yeah, ask around for MATLAB. You'll find someone who already has it.

ACTL1001 wasn't really that difficult. Did you do it Minai?

As long as u keep reading and doing those exercices, school lecture becomes insignificant. And u still getting good marks. I think so personally.... lol

 

[redslert]

i don't think there's enough exercies in the booklets...
compared to hsc maths where we had to do stupid repetition exercies....
there's like 10% of that in the booklets

is it really enough?! there so much reading and it's MATHS!

 

[lawforever]

U probably rite. R u doing actuarial studies as well?

In ACTL courses, is maths the majority?

when do we learn a topic called "probablity and statistics?"

 

[kaseita]

yes, maths is the majority

at least for the moment

u'll learn prob n stats end of this semester (a week before stuvac)

 

[Affinity]

what's 2nd semester like?

Plus: predict your marks for the recent test

 

[t-i-m-m-y]

recent test um. maybe 7 or 8
