Anyone knows what the new format for MSM is?????

279 3032 Management Science Methods
Candidates should answer
FOUR
of the following
EIGHT
questions. All questions carry equal
marks.
Previously this paper had two sections, with three
predominantly qualitative questions and
five predominantly quantitative questions. With the
new examination structure, this no longer
applies. However, the examination paper will contai
n (as previously) a short note question
that is predominantly qualitative in nature. This s
hort notes question will contain three topics
and ask “Briefly explain each of the following topi
cs from the viewpoint of Operational
Research/Management Science:”

Thank you for the advices. I will take EOE next year. I currently taking MSM this year. But why is it harder with the new format? The new format allow us to "skip" the entire theory section away since a min of 5 quantitative questions will be listed. We have to answer 4 questions. Thank you again on the advices.

anyone prepare to study all chapters for MM?

Hmm. I failed my mm last year. This year format change. Seems like everything is important. But I think I'm just gonna focus on those calculation topics.

Those derivation like poisson, gambler ruins etc. Think I just gonna skip it. Totally not worth the time.

As usual mm requires alot of thinking, unlike previous years, the question now like not so straightforward. Some questions may be very time consuming. Eg: Venn diagram, box plot, forecasting and deflating inflating indices.

All the best for all mm warriors!

if you like that, i think you won't get full marks.. only can get 70+ or 80+ marks

?? What do you mean? If its 8 choose 4 now, provided that they do not have > 4 theory then its possible unless they mix in theory parts in the quantitative qns

Gambler ruins, poisson, Durbin Watson. All these I also dun really understand. Perhaps that the reason I screwed up my exam last year. Econometrics I haven't covered. Probably leave it till tml or tues, really pressing for time.

I only managed to cover Venn diagram, indices, matrices, Markov chain, forecasting, exploratory data analysis and stochastic. Difference and differential every year also come out. But I kinda weak in recalling the CF and PS steps. Always must refer to notes then can do. Don't even talk about trigo. Feel like totally give up on trigo. Hate it since secondary sch.

Matrices I think quite important. Come out almost every year. If you got dr Stephenson's note, read through it and I suppose you shld be able to managed all the pyp matrices questions. Last year, dr syed's notes is quite confusing for me. I really think dr Stepenson did a great job in his notes. So detailed and organized.

Sorry for the wall of text. Study till abit crazy. :(
