$3240 per subject?$3240!?!?!?! Not worth it at all. I'd choose holidays over study. Seriously doing summer school just doesn't seem to be worth it. If you fail it's a waste of $3240, and then there's the problem of having to do it again when the semester begins again >_>. And lol at ECON1202 I thought that was being scrapped next year for a whole new Commerce degree look.
Oh my.What I disliked about it, is that it was basically a grab bag of little tricks and funny polynomials that happen to solve particular differential equations - Legendre polys, Hermite polys, Chebyshev polys, Airy Functions, Bessel Functions, and the list goes on.
Why anyone would actually want to solve any of these DEs was never explained. So most of the material was poorly explained and poorly motivated. However, Omium is a physics student, so he may already know what all that these equations are for.
If they'll let you, why not. Actually, why not see if they will let you into Higher Complex Analysis? I wouldn't bother to accelerate just for the ordinary level course.Please tell me, should I do MATH2520 Complex Analysis (3uoc) in first year sem2? (or 2620-the higher version) The pre-req is MATH1231 but maybe I can beg my way in, should I?
There is no reason why you can't.Please tell me, should I do MATH2520 Complex Analysis (3uoc) in first year sem2? (or 2620-the higher version) The pre-req is MATH1231 but maybe I can beg my way in, should I?
All the material in Complex Analysis is covered in the first 7 chapters of that Brown and Churchill book. I thought it was a very good textbook when I did that course.There is no reason why you can't.
One way to do it is to convince the lecturer to sign waiver of prerequisites form. The best way is probably to get several books and start reading over the break so that you can say something sensible about the subject at that time!
They use this: Amazon.com: Complex Variables and Applications: James Ward Brown, Ruel V. Churchill: Books
and this: Introduction to Complex Analysis
To find all sorts of maths books online without having to go to the library the hint is "djvu".
Completely different material but great book:All the material in Complex Analysis is covered in the first 7 chapters of that Brown and Churchill book. I thought it was a very good textbook when I did that course.
Yeah, I'm doing Finite, that's why I have 3uoc which I don't want to spend on gen eds (since I don't know what to do, and the good ones are unavailable in sem2). I'm hesitating because this (or Higher) will mess up my timetable and I'm sure if it's interesting/useful.If they'll let you, why not. Actually, why not see if they will let you into Higher Complex Analysis? I wouldn't bother to accelerate just for the ordinary level course.
You could also consider taking Finite Maths if you have already done Discrete.
wow thanks for that! I'll try, but I'm afraid I wouldn't get very good marks for maths 1a (shouldn't have slacked off D: ) is it a problem?There is no reason why you can't.

'djvu'? u mean deja vu?
