    Post your results and wam thread (s2/14)

    Quite surprised that my academic transcript as of now is still left unchanged from last semester (ie. no change in WAM/UoC passed). Well, just a couple of hours now till results are out, and I'll know then hopefully .

    Nope, just my overall WAM and UOC passed is Session 1 results. I got and know all my marks back, I'm expecting 2 CRs and 1 DN. - ARTS & PHYS - I got back weeks ago, and MATH - I just got yesterday.

    Yeah I’ve heard that too, the formats are slightly different. In the first session, I’ve that it’s a lot harder than second session because of the stricter marking in first session. Through the 1917 youtube videos, Pro Richard Buckland seems to be very good and knows what's he's talking about...

    Hmm... yeah the course outline says that too. But going back to Peter Brown's email earlier this month says: 7. Provisional Mathematics marks will be available (via the Student Web Portal) on or shortly before Friday 28th November. By past experience (through MathSoc on FB), he mentioned...

    1st Year University Mathematics Thread

    Note: Sorry, I'm not sure how to use Latex at the moment! Suppose that two vectors A and B are the following A(0,1,-1), B(2,1,M) Find the value of 'M' if the angle between A and B is Pi/4 I know the formula for computing angles between vectors is (Cos(theta) = a . b/|a||b|) but I am unsure...

    Da hell, didn't that guy won the Vice-Chancellor's teaching award recently? https://www.maths.unsw.edu.au/news/2013-12/norman-wildberger-nick-fewster-receive-vice-chancellors-awards Never had him personally though.

    For Bill Ellis, what did you particularly liked about his teaching? I will be having him this summer (MATH 1231) and would like to know a good hand before. :D I know Britz though, he's pretty awesome (gave chocolates in the final lecture iirc) GG, I'm taking that course next year. No...

    ARTS1271: The History Matrix Ease: 8/10 - Depends on your skills in writing and research rather than 'knowledge'. Content: 10/10 - Good course. Goes over the 20th century by lecture/week by lecture/week. Covers some very interesting stuff. Lecturer: Zora Simic 9/10. Very good, explains...

    2014 COMP finals thread.

    Hmm... it's working for Maths (as in 'course passed in Sem2 2014') but it doesn't work for Astronomy - a course I know I passed since I got all my final marks back.

    A taste of higher mathematics!

    Wow, very nice! As a 1st year math prospective student intending to do honours in Pure Math or Statistics (not sure yet), I am interested in Number and Graph Theory and other theoretical areas relating to Computational and Discrete Mathematics. The whole idea of Cryptography seems very...

    Transferring to UNSW, does this mean I'll be behind a year?

    I'm not too sure about the credits for COMP1917 and 1927 without any official accreditation - so it's up to the school if they decide to give you credit or not. Most definitely you will have to do first year maths which is part of the first year program of CompSci. They are: MATH1131 -...

    transfer

    For UTS, if you want to transfer from one faculty to a different faculty like engineering, you will have to reapply through UAC considering they don't belong in the same faculty. Internal transfers only work if they are in the same faculty. eg: Internal Transfer (through UTS) (BSc (old major)...
