USYD Engineering with 2u maths + bridging course (1 Viewer)

[DiValdez]

So I've only completed 2u maths course and scored 88 (high band 5) and am doing a bridging course for ext1 mathematics.

Will I find first year engineering maths hard? If so.. is there any possibility i can get a slower scheme to complete my mathematics subjects (but will that extend the duration of my course hope not)

Theres a chance you could struggle a little, but based on your mark in 2u its probably not going to be an issue. Maybe try and learn some 3u stuff outside of the bridging course?

Many people found that the ext. 1 maths bridging course wasn't very helpful as most content is new.

If you really wanted to you could take maths fundamental units for sem 1 but that would mess up your degree plan as MATH1001 and MATH1002 aren't offered in sem 2.

I think you will be fine if you are willing to put in some extra effort in your math courses tbh.

Most 1000 Math subjects are offered in summer school! Just a heads up for your planning. I'm personally utterly screwed. Maybe some free online courses may be of help? www.edx.org or www.coursera.com or www.udacity.com

No you can't do fundamental courses for maths in any engineering course as the MATH100X units will be prerequisites to alot of units you will do later.

the calculus course I'm currently taking is pretty helpful
