Got an email from professor Forbes.
YEAP, ITS POSSIBLE TO DO THE PART II program there even if I did not get exemption for Part I units.. woohoooooooo~~
THIS IS SO NOT TRUE. xD

Jue Sheng,
Bruce Goodwin in the Course Advisory area has sent me the course planners he sent you.
I confirm that as far as the actuarial program what he has told you is quite correct.
If you come to Clayton for 3 years and do a B Com and do 8 units a year, 24 units in all.
Then assuming you are going to fulfil the CPA requirements, and using the information Bruce has supplied
You would have
6 core compulsory units, incl AFC1000, ECC1000 and ETC1000 which count towards the actuarial program
2 out of 4 compulsory units, and doing ETC1010 and AFC1030 gives you ETC1010 towards the actuarial program
8 CPA units, of which only AFC2140 counts for the actuarial program
That is 16 units to fulfil basic B Com requirements and CPA requirements.
Leaving you only 8 optional units from other areas to cover the actuarial program.
Whereas the actuarial program involves 11 units plus 2 maths units desirable.
That is ECC1100 (for CT7), AFC2000 (for CT2), ETC2520 (for CT3), AFC2340 (for CT1), ETC2430 and MTH3241 (for CT4), ETC3530 (for CT5), ETC2410, 3460 and 3510 (for CT8), ETC3420 (for CT6) and MTH1020/1030 and MTH2222 being a good idea.
SO IN SUMMARY - IF YOU CAN AFFORD TO COME TO CLAYTON FOR 4 YEARS YOU CAN DO EVERYTHING
IF YOU CAN ONLY AFFORD TO BE HERE FOR 3 YEARS THEN IF YOU WANT TO DO THE FULL CPA PROGRAM THEN YOU CAN ONLY FIT IN 3 QUARTERS OF THE ACTUARIAL PROG AND GET 5 EXEMPTIONS OUT OF 8
YOU WOULD STILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR ENTRY TO A PART II ACTUARIAL PROGRAM AT MONASH IF WE HAVE ONE THEN, OR AT ANOTHER UNIVERSITY (YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE ALL 8 EXEMPTIONS TO STILL GET INTO A PART II PROGRAM).

I FEEL LIKE:
English? Argument?
Apa itu?
XD
1 down, 3 to go. =D
My grade sucks. And It will if I dont do anything about it.
This coming Week is a disaster. WIth Deadlines, and projects, and TESTS.
I m' so not gonna get to sleep early from now on.
By the way,
I ve got a feeling~
That tonight's gonna be a good night, that tonight's gonna be a good good night~
that tonight's gonna be a good good night~~~
I WISH.
I could sell some part of my lifespent for the surgery to remove lazyness from me.
This is so not funny. = =
Submitting applications, handling queries, getting details as well as asking for them, doing some research on programs availability on Campuses,
These are basically what I do (or to be said "Obsessed to do") except studying, revisions and more revision.
So far so good, the progression of Merit Gaps isn't that much of an emphasis as long as it does progress upwards.
Despite of Monash, it's such a big joke for some people that, studying MUFY and not entering Monash is such a stupid thing to do, presumably a waste of money. However, when you know/read up how the Go8 organisation works, you will realise how MUFY is such a benefitial pathway for education towards Australian Universities.
It's a common misconception that people think of MUFY, as a program that costs alot, yet suggesting it to have lower standard/Qualification compared to other Aus Year 12 programs such as AUSMAT or SAM. Indeed, that's a very light touch on the surface of this issue.
It may be somehow true that SAM covers bigger syllabus compared to Go8 Foundation Programs like MUFY.
THIS IS NOT THE FACT THAT IT PROVES A BETTER QUALITY OF EDUCATION.
Resolving aspects of education, it includes
-Class size
-Staff Qualification
-Standardisation of Syllabus
-Learning Essential COmponent
-Resources
-Monitoring
-Recognition
Out of all these, clear cut. MUFY control class size to a limit of 28students. MUFY students can easily access relevant Monash Archives. MUFY as part of Go8 foundation, has their own English Syllabus which emphasis on argument constructing and prepare us for Degree level of study. MUFY is monitored by Monash Authroities from time to time. Recognition of MUFY is due Go8,
which is kept unique and controlled, rather than other Aus year 12 program that can come from any state, any school, any evaluator.
Australian Universities recruit future student through TER, a ranking index.
Want know more, google it. SInce MUFY or TRINITY doesn't have a ranking system for students, we are evaluated through scores, (varies on programs/degree). This is both an advantage and disadvanatage. The Pro's is that our Merit Achievement is independent from Competition with other students. However, if the exam is tough for that particular batch, your score drops, even you may be the top 10 students of your program.
Through my emails to Australian Universities and their replies, they admitted that prior of enrolment ( as long as it meets the minimum requirement), an (conditional/actual)offer is mostly issued for
1)Self-foundation Program--> 2) G08 FOundation Students --> 3) Year 12--> 4) Other qualification
*Hence, our MUFY program give us a slight advantage on enrolment.
It's no harm trying to apply for Other Universities, since we are in MUFY, as long as you dont screw up finals, you are GUARANTEED a placement in Monash, as we are ranked top prior.
For those intending to study in Australia, MUFY is a good tool. Even through Sem1 result, we can actually apply for COnditional Offer Letter from the Australian Universities. Go through an agent, like AusEd or IDP. Then, it'll be a step to step tutorial. =)
STudying Overseas will definitely cause financial burden somehow, but making a longer provision. Australian rate of Salary, PR approval, Aus Qualification....
The return may worth more than the investment.
Acedemic Merits is still top prior for now... ...
Finally, a secured place at Monash, Clayton Campus.
Of course, provided studies go pretty well this semesters.
Got new registered student ^^
"SET YING ZHEN" xD
* Make him gain interest towards math, so he can score well.
*Translate Ms. Geetha's language to his channel.
I M' FEELIN SO PRAUD
Mr. Graham even gave me bunch of detail bout the program,
including excel worksheet that highlights what Unit I should take during the Years, and what suitable Electives to sharpen basics.
It's a hard year front, but It definitely goes easier after I complete both path.
Kinda like Australian Lecturer, they put the effort to answer my doubts, giving details, handling enquiries and make sure i understand how it works.
I am definitely proud of Monash.
However, estimated figure on the fees, is a summation of approx. RM350 000.
I wouldn't want to trouble my dad to handle 2 packs of 350k figures, my sister's Medic course is already a burden to him.
But she applied PTPTN loan ( applicable for local institutes only), I cant.
SO where'm I supposed to get that amount of Money from?
Anyone know any loan? Study Loan? With low interest ones?
Any Bonding? I am willing to work for those that sponsor me for my studies...
Preferably Finance departments..
I Have A dream, and I am dreaming on it.
350 000
6 digits.
Need help here.
Finished the crappy CSC test today. Eric saw me memorising answers like mad,
Actuarial work as a career suit bets those in the top 5% of achievers, but some people do better an University rather than at school, so if you are in the top 7% or 85 of achievers and the do even better at University, you may stll be suited for actuarial work.
YOU WOULD BE ALLOWED TO DO THE ACTUARIAL PROGRAM IF YOU GET INTO B COM.
SO IF YOU HAVE PASSED THE MUFY REQUIREMENT FOR B COM YOU ARE OK
Sounds like you are well above the minimum level from MUFY for B Com, so this suggests that your results are looking quite suitable for actuarial work.
Your Fluency of Language can be judged from the 1st Grade score you obtained from your HSC 1119 Britain English Syllabus.
Your high marks in maths and computer science, and adequate mark in English, is a good sign.
Any other questions?

I have already said that once you do Part I or most or it at Monash, if you choose, or if Monash doesn't have a Part II program, you could do Part II at Macquarie, NSW, ANU or Curtin.
Or you can do it by correspondence through Macquarie. Macquarie accepts everyone who wants to do it by correspondence.
Uni Melb restricts their entry to Part II to those with very good results (middle Distinction upwards) but as far as I know the others admit full-time students quite readily.
So if you get 5 or 6 exemptions from Part I of the Monash program you should easily be accepted into Part II at Macquarie NSW or ANU.
But don't worry, by that time it is highly likely Monash will have its own Part II program.
Your second question - yes if you do your First Year in Malaysia you will end up with 5/8 exemptions not all exemptions. But you will save a lot of money.
And during the 3 yrears you are studying at Clayton you only have to sit and pass 1 CT Institute subject per year each April by studying in the January/February period, and you will end up with 5 exemptions and 3 passes (CT7, CT2, CT3) so still would have all 8 of the Part I's by the time you finish your Monash double degree.
This of course assumes you get Distinctions for everything (not everyone does)
Best regards, Graham Forbes
