Mathematics Applicants 2012

I definitely don't think UCL will reject you, and hmm I suppose if you are going to firm Warwick or Cambz (too much time talking to Rahul) then Durham might be the best backup. Tbh I don't think you'll need your 5th to come into play looking at your grades.

Booking for the Warwick open day starts today... still not sure if I should go to that or just visit at any random time. I mean, I don't want to waste my time in the maths talk, the one at Manchester was mind numbingly dull

I'll be there

So will I! Literally every one of my talks is in the zeeman building. Including the 4 strands of MORSE! <3

4 strands of MORSE? I've heard of the Zeeman's building and I think the only cool place that interests me in Warwick university is its Maths and Stats department. I could be wrong though.

That is the maths and stats building. MORSE, their flagship course, sounds super awesome, if I weren't doing maths I would take that route to go into IB or actuary, look into it.

I'm applying for MMORSE actually lol! I know that it's super awesome and would really love to firm that if I could get the offer. Others be Maths at Cambridge (although I don't put much hope on it) and Actuarial Science at Cass, LSE and Heriot-Watt.

Nice! MMORSE, the name is so appealing! That's with exemption from the actuary exams right? I has orginally planned it to be in my ucas till i realised my top 4 choices were Cambz UCL warwick maths warwick morse *_*, after results day I re-evaluated and turned things down a notch lol, coz i flopped

Perhaps you want to apply for an university with slightly lower requirement, since all 4 choices that you are applying requires at least A*AA. I did, with Heriot-Watt as a university with relatively lower requirement. Yep, MMORSE is with exemptions for 7 Core Technical (CT) actuarial exams (excluding CT5 - Contingencies). MMORSE is so appealing and awesome! Oh yeah, is MMORSE considered as a maths degree?

Yeah I have done, now it's Warwick Maths, Edinburhg/St Andrews, Kings College, Manchester and Birmingham is my failsafe. Heriot Watt is great for actuarial science. I wante dto do actuarial science aswlel but realised i was torn between that and invesment banking so now chose maths to keep both options open for the future lol

MMORSE is quite a perfect course to keep both options open, be it actuarial or IB. I'm not really sure about IB, but for actuarial, I can safely assure you that MMORSE is quite good for actuarial career. Maths is obviously good as well, but you wouldn't learn anything about economics and finance, unless you take some modules relating to it or statistics. MMORSE is harder than Actuarial Science degree, but I think Maths is more rigorous than MMORSE, so in a way it's better.

MMORSE is definitely perfect for either I agree. But I enjoy maths with a passion, so I'd rather stay pure for now. Although I am going to take topics on fundamental economics. So hopefully I won't be too far behind you. Best things about maths is proof, I really want to get good at it lol.

LOL yeah true. There's reason I'm applying for Cambridge's Maths, cause I enjoy doing pure maths too. Which college are you applying to?

I'm not applying to Cambridge anymore. *_* Check my sig to see all info. I messed up AS so I cant.
