watz the lowest study score that monash have accepted 4 MUEP maths. like you need 40-41 scaled, whats the lowest any1z got that was acceptd in? i hav straight A+ reportz for spesh and chem and the rest of my report is gud. my school were happi with me applying and everything. so yerr thankz in advance - first post!!
-
mmm if i remember correctly, mid-high 30 [raw] was accepted. [36 i think it was?]

They say you need a 41 raw, but I got in with a 40 raw.
-
I got into the Melbourne Extension Program with a 38.
-
my friend got in with 36 raw for methods cas,
but another friend didn't get in, and he had like 37/38 raw.
...maybe the rest of his grades weren't that good.
-
3 guys (if i remember right) this year at the clayton campus with me are doing methods 3/4 this year.
i don't think it matters as long as your teacher think you can handle it and monash is getting the money =)
i got in with a 39 raw
-
i got in without doing any 34 subjects

Wow really? You're advice would have been helpful 2 years ago :idiot2:

most of them that i know of don't requre you to have already done the subject.. i'm doing 3/4 chem and muep chem together this year, so i didn't need a chem score..
edit, woah 2000th post^_^

Sorry man, sarcasm doesn't convey well across the internet.

oh wow hahahah, i actually did not read what you said properly. argh today is not a good day for me. sorry><

did six subjects in year 11
-did really really shit in my 3/4 subject health, got 35 raw, after scaling its like 31.something
-A+ for eng/lit/legal
-B's/C's avg. for gen adv. and math methods
with those grades i got into both muep criminal justice (required either have done or doing this year 3/4 legal) and umep linguistics (required either have done or doing this year 3/4 eng/englang)
-
LOL my bad XD
-
heyhey i ended up choose umep linguistics for multiple reasons ;P mostly the distance, but also the cost. if i went monash i would either have to travel 2 hours to get there couple of times a week or do it long distance and teach myself. whereas melb uni is like 40-50mins drive. personally for me i prefer learning with a teacher/class, rather than teach myself the subject lol. and also you had to pay $900 a year at monash and with the textbooks my parents would have had to pay $1300-1400, whereas at melbourne uni, the tuition was free, and you would only have had to pay for the textbooks which were like around $400-500. and because i have 5 vce subjects + 5 periods of homegroup/vce-admin a week at school, i wouldnt have made it in time to the monash uni for the 3.30-4pm classes, since i finish school at 3. if monash was closer to where i lived, hands down would have gone to monash but it was just too far and wouldnt have made it in time.
-
the tuition was free, and you would only have had to pay for the textbooks which were like around $400-500.
;_; and this is only one subject.
-
I see, is the standard for Monash programmes lower than that in UoMelb? Because I heard that UMEP Maths is harder than MUEP Maths... :D
Yeah, at Monash you learn math that is useful [and you learn how to look up textbooks if you forget how to do something]. At Melbourne you just learn maths, maths and more maths, and you also try to learn some ingenuity.
And books are rarely $400-$500 per subject, more like $400-$500 per semester.
-
Buying books online seems to be cheaper.
http://www.booko.com.au/ to search for prices/sites.
I usually buy from http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/ or the .com counterpart (free shipping and PayPal accepted) depending on the book. Think I've spent around 600 for the year (8 units) including optional books, but the money isn't mine, it's from Centrelink.
MUEP is also seemingly easier because of the separate unit exams and the awesome open-book format. Also, biscuits. Biscuits. Chips.
-
Anyone that pays more than $250 for a textbook should have bad things done to them.
-
...but the money isn't mine, it's from Centrelink.
<.< I hate you.
-
Yeah, I got my textbooks from amazon but have now realised that I probably would have been mostly fiune without them (there was abouta chapter that we needed a textbook for)

Out of intrest, what type of topics does MUEP maths cover? And what textbooks do you use?
-
These are a few things I've done off the top of my head:
hyperbolic functions
vectors and planes
calculus (multivariable in second sem I think...)
Newton-Rhapson method
Matrices
Curvature
Limits
we use stewarts, most of the stuff is an extension of specialist, im thinking of using stewart for spesh revision

where do you do muep chem vexx?
-
At my school, Scotch College, teacher, Chris Commons. (soz to ans for you vexx >.< but i need to get to 500 posts!)
-
I have calculus (Ostabee and Zorn 2nd edition) and linear algebra (can't remeber the author).
and yes topics are as iffets12345(I finally understand your username) said.
second semester sounds a lot harder. multivariable calculus, systems of linear equations (under which we have things like Gaussian and Gauss-Jordan complete elimination and Augumented matrices and their solutions) and there is also sequances and series. I have no idea how far each topic goes (I am reading out a few headings)

lol, i didn't get her username either till she explained it to me >.<

mmmm we have done
Mathematical proofs
Matricies
systems of linear equations
complex numbers/exponential
vectors
lines/planes in 3D
functions of several varibles
multivarible caculus(partial differentiation and multiple integrals)
and for the rest of the eyar, we're just doing vector spaces
Multivarible caculs is really intetesring i found, and the systms of linear equations with matricies is not too hard, it's just a little tedious
-
hey my school friends found me out at once, it aint that hard to guess :P

I know, I was looking at Gauss when we were doing matrices, it was beautiful! I loved it :P It seems harder though next semester, which worries me cause I wasn't following sem 1 all too well haha.
Sequences and series doesn't look good to me, I'm not good at that...but im all for multivariable :D
-
yea...we don;t even touch on sequences and series....btw iffets, good to know that ur working so dilgently at work that you have time to go on vn :P
-
lol, I have so many liberties at my work. :)
-
YOU MAKE BUBBLE CUPS AND DRINK BUBBLE CUPS AND FB/VN I WISH I HAD UR JOB
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
-
yea well i wish i was studying
-
lol i wish i was too, but meh, vn/fb/msn win :P
-
lol i wish i was too, but meh, vn/fb/msn win :P
amen to that ;)
-
Though I'm doing history/politics instead of maths, some people i know (in my course and philosophy) got in with 35- which was a real jib because i worked my ass off and stressed out that i wouldn't be accepted!
In your app. try to put in teacher references, good reports, anythnif extra you may have done etc. It may be the thing that gets you accepted if you do not obtain that 41.
