    OH hahaha!!! okay I thought MSAS stands for Master of Science in Actuarial Science. That's MSc Actuarial Science/Management it seems. Sorry my bad. Looks boring? looks? Hahaha!!! Yea since it's in London, I can go anywhere I want with Tube! Get an oyster card and it's all settled! I'm not sure why mine is earlier, different board I think. Yours is Edexcel right? Mine is CIE.

    Yeah, although sometimes I think Edexcel is better. The papers seem to be easier than CIE! And you can retake only those modules that you flung, not the whole subject. :eek:

    I'm not. My Economics paper was literally bad and I'm actually quite worried about it. I studied so hard but entered the exam hall writing crappy answers.

    I got 97 percentile for my AS that's why I felt devastated when I screwed my A2 Final. :/ Probably will lose the A* (>90 percentile).

    Hahaha!!! sounds interesting. Apart from those typical activities (eating, sleeping, bathing etc), I've been reading some online articles (trading), good books (finance, economics, maths, cosmology and Christianity) and some actuarial/financial maths notes that I've obtained from my senior. Too many stuffs to read on until I'm undecided on which one to read haha.

    Anyway, yeay I like playing badminton too! I will usually take 2 days off a week just to play badminton and go to gym. (:

    Apakah cara lain yang dapat membantu kamu ambil course ini? Study harder and get good results. Focus in your SPM and, if possible, secure a scholarship; unless of course, you were loaded. Whatever pre-U programme that you come out with, make sure the universities that you're applying for recognise the qualification and strive hard to meet the requirement, if possible, beyond. Good luck!
