Hey Rui, awesome journals, gotta love those fractals! Just a question (which is probably predictable coming from me), why did you drop actuarial studies? Are the 2nd/3rd year subjects excessively hard, or were you just not enjoying it? (It always terrifies me seeing students who are doing much better than me drop it...)
Thanks
Hmm, I didn't really mind the intro course last year, but the CT1 course this year ruined a lot at around halfway in. (See UNSW reviews for slightly more opinion on that.) By that point, my interest (no pun intended haha) had flown out drastically. The way they taught forwards/futures/swaps/options didn't even make sense anymore and I complained a lot more than I ever did last year.
Tbh, probably would've just gone back to commerce, but ironically actuarial studies itself was what got me into computing.
I wouldn't say they were "hard" - if I had stayed interested I would probably have performed better as well.
Also, nah, I've seen someone better than me drop as well.
