[Esse]

Let's kick this off early since WAM glitch is working for some subjects

Any predictions?

 

[KingOfActing]

My predictions (not including scaling)

COMP4128 - 87 (That's my actual mark unless scaling happens)
COMP3821 - 97-98, or 100 if bonus marks from the assignment count for final
MATH2111 - 89ish
MATH2601 - 75-80

how much harder are the higher math courses than their lower counterparts (math2011, math2501) ? Most likely going to be majoring in stats so was wondering if the higher counterparts are more useful or anything?

 

[heytherewhatsup]

Anyone doing fins2624 or fins3626 has the wam updated?

I would say higher is made significantly harder. Depends on what you mean by useful, I don't really think either course relates to statistics like, at all (apart from the really basic matrix stuff at the beginning of linear algebra)

is there any benefit to doing higher courses? or is it just for love of math + possibly better scaling

 

[aoc]

pretty sure econ1102 is up (or could be acct2522 but unlikely)

 

[harmonics]

Fins3641 should be up.

Scaling isn't really a positive or negative thing (someone who does well in higher will get ~100 in regular, someone who is struggling with regularis only gonna do worse in higher). You should do it if you think you'll enjoy it (or if you want to major in Pure Mathematics, because it's compulsory. Not sure about Applied).

 

[kimlee123]

CVEN3202 final exam marks are out on moodle grade section

 

[freel0ader]

I think econ1101 is out.

 

[nuggeted]

My WAM in the stream dec has changed 3 times since last thursday... does that mean that 3 of my courses have been entered? (1st yr here btw)

 

[SuxMATH]

Mark changed this arvo. I reckon it's MGMT1001 but if anyone can confirm this that would be great.

Yes, you're spot on there.

 

[CNSie]

Math marks are out. Did you get what you expected KingOfActing? I got lower than I thought for 2601 and higher than I thought for 2111

 

[nuggeted]

I didn't do MGMT1001 this sem so unfortunately I have nothing helpful to say about that.. but I was wondering if anyone could confirm if FINS1613 is out?

 

[chadbonham]

FINS1613 is out (no scaling), ACCT2522 is out and MGMT1002 is out

 

[nuggeted]

FINS1613 is out (no scaling), ACCT2522 is out and MGMT1002 is out

Wait are you sure FINS1613 is out.. because I legit thought I failed because I guessed like half the paper... but my WAM isn't that tragic?? I'm so confused.. but I hope so

 

[chadbonham]

yep pretty sure. lol maybe you had good guesses. all 4 have been added for me.

 

[SuxMATH]

MGMT1001, ECON3107, FINS3635 and FINS3636 have been added in. The first two literally just then.

 

[KingOfActing]

My predictions (not including scaling)

COMP4128 - 87 (That's my actual mark unless scaling happens)
COMP3821 - 97-98, or 100 if bonus marks from the assignment count for final
MATH2111 - 89ish
MATH2601 - 75-80

Update:
Provisional maths mark on https://portal.maths.unsw.edu.au (also can confirm MATH2(5|6)01 and MATH2111 are added to Stream Declaration).

MATH2111 - 94
MATH2601 - 85
