Oh, pity. Though I suppose a lot of universities don't do it until the second year.
I wish. "" Still, one doesn't need alcohol to get drunk.
Complex analysis looks really cool. But, I would have to wait intill next year intill I actually get taught it. I think most good unis have some analysis in first year, although they might not call it analysis but maybe something like sequence and series.
Do you mean chewwing grapes.
P.S. GA is that your favourite amino acid. I think I can remeber that from biology, it was horrible.
Depending on what analysis you already know and what classes you're willing to skip the lectures of, you could always go to analysis II
The analysis is know is next to nothing, though I'd naturally be pleased if I had the confidence to skip lectures and go ahead to Analysis II.

I think most universities would at least begin to prepare students for analysis, though I'm not too sure as my research into mathematics courses was minimal. Complex analysis does sound cool, and when I wave my work in others' faces they'll say "what's that?" and I'll say "it's complex analysis" and they'll say "must be harder than simple analysis!". Or they won't.
Nope; though I'll try chewing grapes sometime in the future. But a combination of exultant joy and tiredness can lead to a drunken-like feeling.
It's posthumously my favourite amino acid; due to me choosing this username and not the other way round.

You can't run before you can walk, I guess. According to amazon you don't know analysis intill you can understand Rudin principle of mathematical analysis.
That would make sense but still only a subset of maths student on this forum go to unis that are 30 minutes on a train away. Doable, but it isn't going to happen.
I'm looking forward to learning more about differential equations + learning about how to model economics with maths (A-level skipped out on it a lot). But really, I'm just looking forward to the university experience - don't care too much about the course at this stage. First few weeks will probably involve a lot of catching up with FM as well, I'd suspect, for the single mathematicians.
I have never been called mathsbitch but I think I like it
Regarding the maths meet - I think if we had it in London we could have Me, Simon, Sway, Jess, maybe Caciuml878 would come down, Nota bene, Generalebriety, and many more of you cool cambridge/warwick guys. Its a go ahead from me
And whilst we're all saying what we like - I'm looking forward to the cheap university beer

I'd be interested in a Maths meet. Would be great to meet you people!
Some universities (e.g. Warwick and apparently York) run a system where your modules carry "credits" (CATs I think Warwick calls them) and you need to do 120 per year. Warwick allows over-CATing though where by you can do more modules than normal in 1 year, which can work out to a better grade/is good for really keen people.
Don't other unis have the credits system?
As in a standard module is usually 10 credits and you have to do at least 120 credits worth of modules a year?

I think a lot of unis do. However, Cambridge (where both me and Simon are going) has a very rigid degree structure whereby you must study 100% maths throughout your degree, and you have no choice between maths modules until late into your second year. Obviously in this case there'd be little point in a credit system, so Cambridge doesn't have one.

How are your later modules chosen? I think Warwick gives modules a certain number of CATs depending on their difficulty, so you can mix + match until you hit 120. LSE says like "one stats module" and gives you a list of second year stats modules that are relevant to your course/year.
