last year FI only have one uk lecturer who is Simon wolfie. He is good always end 15-30 mins before the class ended.
VSA is Pascal the rock star whom mr mok called: one of the subject guide author, u may see him on the uol vle study wk video, u have to ask qn or write on a piece of paper to ask him he don entertain one to one question. His notes soso only but when he said impt or skip listen to him. Last year he mentioned that he is not the chief examiner i believe is the other female uk lecturer the other author cos he said the paper was set by her.

For those taking theory paper , such as Pobf and FI, it is crucial to start having your drafts out by now.

Just a key note from experiences with all my students, do not attempt to cover 100% / all chapters .

There are those chapters that are closely related and in contrast,those that are by itself.

Pick and prepare wisely. Have a clear understanding of what you would be arguing instead of going around the same points over and over again.

Common mistakes most students make is that they rely on 2-3 points, explicitly, hoping to achieve higher grades. That's a no.

why not just state which chapters in pbf and fi to focus on instead of writing all those nonsense which everybody already knows

Hello! Anyone can share BME timetable or how are the classes held thanksthanks

 

[iwanfreedom]

why not just state which chapters in pbf and fi to focus on instead of writing all those nonsense which everybody already knows

for last year FI, i focus on ch1 , ch2 , ch3 all the type of risks and market risk measurement , ch5 ALM , and backup ch6 securitisation backup ch7 excluding EVA.
Craft your essays as draft, and review it from time to time, most impt is the timing: allocate equally timing for all 4 qns.
Example no more than 40 mins on one qn, cos if u didnt do one or two qns or do not write as well as the rest of the qn marks will be adversely affected
Introduction and conclusion is essential , add in diagrams/illustrations/examples into your essay highly recommend by the uk lecturer as well as my local lecturer, thus the txtbks came in handy. If possible try to wrote journal articles writer empirical studies/ evidence

 

[jenn.hart]

Did received some of your PMS over the theory subjects. I wish to be very clear that all chapters are equally important and have equal chances of coming out.

I wouldn't spot any chapters for you guys but once you have decided on the chapters you are taking, pm me or drop me an email on your draft.

Will help to look through for you

Anyone studied or studying ME?

Hi!
Sibeh hopeless fr my ME, cos I think I either tend to think the qns too complicated or simply can't see the logics behind it yet
So, here's 2 qns:
1) Anyone has any advice for how to prepare for ME? Any personal experience to share around?
2) Is it ok for me to gatecrush other UK revision? Cos I don't think 1day is enough for me to think of pointers that I need clarification on with the lecturer.

Thanks in advance

If no admin guarding outside you can try sneaking in
