dono well bus stats is boring as fuck, unless you actually wanna learn something, do macro... eng kids won't learn jack shit from bus stats lol [seriously, if you can do multivar calculus from eng, do you really need to learn about simple linear regression? lol] but yeh if you're just in it for the marks then do it, otherwise if you want a worthwhile yet also approachable unit, try macro lol

i would have thought that business stats would be easy for all the eng kids cause it's pretty much all excel stuff :\ hmm

has anyone tried enrolling in 6 units in a semester yet? :P

p.s. it is also possible to enrol in level 2 units in first year as well apparently, i know someone who did MTH1035 in 1st sem, then MTH2015 + MTH2021 in 2nd sem, which you're TECHNICALLY not allowed to do, cause you you're not meant to enrol in MTH2021 until 2nd year, but since he fulfilled all the pre-reqs and co-reqs, WES let him do it.
there is no pre-req for some 2nd year,3rd year Engineering Units , so I am going to take them, leaving some space for a 1st year unit later.

Yeh we cover linear regression in ENG1060 - Computing.... felt like further all over again at one point.

and I will probably forget what linear regression is by the time I do computing which is a fair while away

Just a warning. Doing some 2nd year Engineering Units without a good foundation (even though there's no pre-req, there's often overlaps and presumed knowledge) is suicidal. Of course they're doable but it might take more time and effort for a lower mark than what you might get if you follow the course structure.

I am going to catch up on Matlab for ECE2041 but I don't think I will have any problem for ECE2061 which follows on from ENG1030

The way I'm going atm... half the course structure is out the window since I have to catch up on sci units... Keep pushing aerodynamics further and further back because I won't have everything I need for it because of everything else is so backwards atm.

Mine is already completely thrown out of windows after chem and Dip Lang.

It'll be good if you can do Aerodynamics right after MTH2010 as there's quite a bit of overlap between them, mainly calculus.  (Fields, integrals, time derivative etc.) That said I did my Aerodynamic a year after MTH2010 and still felt that the unit is manageable with some effort. The content covered was pretty interesting in aerodynamics.

Lollerskates, missed enrollment for Dip Lang completely, e-mail time it seems. (I have to do it manually anyway)
