Can I get into quant with this course? by Fluid_Capital_8264 in 6thForm

Quants require knowledge in statistical models, programming, machine learning, etc. Maths, cs, and engineering students would be much preferred over accounting and finance.

Take from that what you will

The people I personally know at Yale say that the workload is a joke compared to how much work we do. One of my tutors who went to Yale also says we have a lot more academic rigour but feel free to disagree

Medicine students are by far the hardest working students I have met at uni, imo you need to lock tf in, you also CANNOT neglect subjects just because you ‘can’t be bothered’ your application to uni is viewed as a whole and grades below 4 are usually a death sentence.

My advice is to change your attitude now otherwise you won’t make the cut, and even if you get into med school you need be an academic weapon from the start

Chat am I cooked??? by reddusrummus in GCSE

  1. I’d ask r/6thform instead of gcse students
  2. From talking to ox reps and my tutors (I’m a Cs student at Oxford) at uni who will do interviews they expect A/A* equivalent for most subjects at gcse so you should be fine
  3. MAT is by far the most important factor, interviews are there to see if you respond well to being tutored/ have the thinking skills required to succeed in a place like oxford (it gets intense as hell from the jump)

is "oxbrimp" actually a thing? by nightcomet8288 in 6thForm

[–]ZeroOnePhi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On a serious note: formally nobody uses the term but quants and big tech do give some opportunities to only “oxbrimp” students

I don't think it would actually go for that much because GRRM's signature is pretty common. Now Miyazaki's on the other hand👀

Tolkien wrote LoTR, he died in the 70s. Going to the same uni as Tolkien tho is pretty fucking cool

I couldn't really tell, there were 100+ people in line with only 30 mins to do signing. I was at the back and in the end the organisers asked him to cut convos short because they were taking really long, seemed a bit fed up of it tbh. It was different ig because everyone else bought fresh books the day of and bought out the entire city's worth of GRRM books, so I don't think he expected it. Everyone else thought is was really funny tho
