yeh fair enough... thanks for that
by the way are u saying for the internal transfer they dunt take into account your uai?
so it would be teh same for law? assumming the supply/demand thing?
thanks! *SIGH OF RELIEF*
hu cares if its hard, u can always go down u cant always go up
>> Internal transfers don't look at your uai as far as i know.
>> same as law, and anything else
>> Contrary to your last statement, that's not necessarily true. If you do bad in actuarial (since it's hard), you're gpa will look like cr@p and any transfers to other unis would have a low success rate. In terms of transfering internally, same thing, but not as bad because you can still be enrolled in actuarial, but just do units set for other degrees.
But look at it this way (note: im not saying this is you). Imagine someone doing ok in their non actuarial units and have perfect gpa (which from an actuarial student's point of view is pretty simple if ur in first yr - ie. if the amount of work u put into actuarial subjects are used on non actuarial subjects, you'd completely kill). Then that person transfers to actuarial and gets bombarded with acst211, stat272, stat271, acst243...pwned...gpa 1.5.....go back to original course 1 yr behind with lousy gpa.
So it's a gamble....
ppl doing actuarial are gambling with their lives. And even if u get through, u still gotta find a job, which is pretty hard.
You have to be able to cope wiv all that stress and pressure. And imo if u couldnt even get 97 uai in ur hsc den u dun got wat it takes. u'll say u'lll work hard etc etc, but man....i dunno....unless ur like a monk or sumfin....i dun fink ppl have that kinda discipline.
