Mar 13, 2018 Stat or Actsc course recommendation for Mathematical Finance? 1 point, 2 comments

“I was planning out and I have a space for one extra course. Anybody have recommendation?”

u/YueZhang: “It depends on your goal/objective. If you want some practical things you may consider STAT440/441, if you want to taste more theories you can try to override some 9xx courses (STAT901 for measure theory based probability or ACTSC970 for pricing theory)”

Apr 25, 2017 How much to you think actsc 446 will be curved? 3 points, 25 comments

“Waiting for the final grades, really scared... It was the worst final out of 40 courses I've ever written. I feel like it could be my lowest grade.”

u/Postmodernist_Cancer: “Idk. I am disappointed with this course in general. When the second midterm came back I felt the marking was harsh. I made some small mistakes that ended up being a lot of marks taken off. …”

u/Postmodernist_Cancer: “… Why didn't you just take ACTSC 970, though? "Finance 1"? It's probably the same idea but not taught so haphazardly I'd assume. And yea I'm pretty mad that this is going to tarnish my transcript now too. …”

“Laurier has a few calculus classes but I'm just going to be talking about the regular calculus (not the business one, ma 129). I will be comparing ma 103 (second half of 110) with math 127/137 at uw. …”

u/Huex3: “… If anything, I'm curious to knowing why uWaterloo does not have a STAT902/ACTSC970/971 equivalence for undergraduate students like Laurier does (MA351, 370, 470). …”

“Thought about it and probably going to actually learn some Chinese (parents are Chinese) by taking CHINA 120R. How bout you guys?”

u/Huex3: “I only have 3 courses left and they should not have conflicts, so STAT 441 and PMATH 453 (unknown if I will go through with that), and hopefully with permission to ACTSC 970 are my electives.”
