Your voice is so calm and pleasant to listen to. And you seem like a very nice and down to earth human too. Thanks for the interesting video, keep it up:)
Congratulations Ellie ! My son completed the Cambridge Math Tripos a few years ago .. indeed a tough course but it builds character and assures you of a rewarding career after ! Well done and all best for the future.
Hello, I am doing a lot of self study in Mathematics and your videos are a great inspiration to me as they motivate me to put in the long hours needed to succeed. Could you please do a video talking about the textbooks/reference books for each of your classes at Leeds and Cambridge. Wish you lots of success in life.
Well, the course really looks so intense one really need to put a lot of effort into it and I thought that's what makes it amazing and quite attractive. I wanna know more specifically about astrophysics portion of this module. And congratulations for completing up this course. And I'm looking to read your thesis the topics seems quite interesting to me :'). All the best.
Hallo Ellie! I am very happy to see you again. What about your health? I hope to watch more and more videos on youtube about your new and old life. Thank you.
To anyone thinking about Part III, the Faculty of Mathematics has decided that from 2024-2025 the Part III essay will no longer optional. Unlike the undergraduate tripos, where the course content is prescribed by the Faculty Board in a set of schedules, Part III course content is entirely at the discretion of the lecturer. For this reason, a course given one year may not be available the next (e.g., the lecturer is on sabbatical or leaves Cambridge), and even if it is, the course content may change if a different lecturer gives the course.
Hello, I was wondering whether you're a former Part III student (particularly admitted from an external university)? If so, I'd like to ask whether you think a 45% in first year Algebra (the equivalent of Part IA Vectors and Matrices + some of Numbers and Sets) will make it unlikely that I'm given an offer for Part III? The rest of my first year modules were >80%, and, based on how my recent second year January exams went as well as an improvement in work ethic, I think I'll perform just as well in my modules this year (which include Linear Algebra, which is a superset of the second half of Algebra) Thank you very much
@@benbrook469 Hi, I was an undergraduate at Cambridge before taking Part III and am now a fellow of one the colleges. I cannot give a definitive answer to your question because I am not involved in admissions for Part III (and if I were, I would not be making decisions over the internet). However, I would imagine a single poor exam result, especially in your first year is unlikely to indicate that you would not be able to study Part III. Your most recent set of results will be a better guide to your ability to cope with course material.
I study in the Department of Statistics and Informatics. It is a very difficult and complex section. I completed my bachelor’s degree in 2021, and I am currently studying for a higher diploma, which is less than a master’s degree and higher than a bachelor’s degree. Greetings from the State of Kurdistan 🇹🇯
Thank you for your videos, they are really informative. Quick question, when you were at Cambridge, what citation/ referencing style did the Mathematics Department require you to use? Thanks :)
I am sorry for asking, but can a candidate phd program in Engineering, more specifically Information Engineering , take this mathematics course from mathematics department?
Just got an offer for this! How did you find the step up from year 3 maths to cambridge maths? Did you find you weren't as good as the cambridge students who studied all 4 years at the beginning? I'm currently studying mathematics and computer science at Bristol and looking into quantumn information and computation
If you are a top student at any of leading Russell group universities, ie average in high 70's or 80's % then you will have no problem keeping up with good Cambridge students.
@@davidc4408 Is that so? I'm top performing at a top 10 uni but my exams look way way easier than the ones they do at Cambridge. Maybe it's easier if you did the problem sheets for each course.
I am Evan. I am from Bangladesh. Now i study from Bachelor honours in Mathematics final year. Plz give me some advise how i become e good mathematician
Quant here, all you need is a proper thinking framework, no specific higher mathematics needed beyond calculus and linear algebra. Of course, the way you think will develop as you take more advanced courses but won’t need the specific theorems. I’m a number theorist who never took a probability course…
@@EllieSleightholm Oh ok. I admit, I am going back a few years since looking at all this stuff. I started my Pure Mtahs degree here in Australia and gave it up as my life changed directions, totally. I thought about maybe taking it up later once I move to Europe and settling down yet I just reached my mid-50s and my interest is not as strong as before and prefer to relax and enjoy my life from here as compared to stressing out over assignments and exams and for something I'll get no return, apart from the knowledge. I also know I could not handle studying Theoretical Physics as am too strong a believer in the works and research of Nikola Tesla who constantly debated with Einstein etc. I am 100000% behind things Tesla said, and as a result, I would constantly be arguing with the lecturer and probably get kicked out of class. And I am too old for that, now. lol
she said in the world... which is a huuge reach considering she doesn't know about courses in India, France, Morocco..... Believe me, I personally took harder classes than this@@Jamuakarrumput
Lol I don't likke to reply to RUclips comments cuz it's a waste of time, but sure. Just India you'll find many hard courses offered at the undergrad level, let alone in France for example (in what's called classes préparatoires) like Topology offered in the second year of undergrad, China, Russia... just don't say "hardest in the world" when you haven't seen what math is like in the other parts of this planet... 🙃
"Hardest" blah blah blah ... well Math 55 would like a talk with y'all, but that's a MATHEMATICS course, not this barbarous maþþS neologistical concotion of the unhinged Albion
I think you're wrong here: all the university courses in the UK are roughly at the same level because they're inter-moderated to maintain standards. What's different is that the percentage of students that get a 1st is way higher for say Trinity Cambridge compared to say Birmingham university. Note also that the teaching is often taken from *standard undergraduate textbooks:* it would be pretty stupid and irresponsible for a lecturer to teach a course using the idiosyncratic teaching methods of Trinity college Cambridge that weren't known and available to the rest of the world.
I disagree with you. A merit at Cambridge is a first any where else. I do Maths but that degree is hard. Don’t you dare compare to tripos to doing Maths at Birmingham.
This isnt true, oxbridge cap the amount of people who get firsts by 30% a lot of the time, whereas plenty of other unis have nearly half the cohort achieving a first
That’s not true at all, the it’s much harder to get a 1st at Cambridge compared to the other Unis, simply because of the immense “competition” around you. There comes a cap where no matter how hard you try and revise, your grade is solely dictated by your mathematical ability. The average 2,2 student at Cambridge would be able to get an easy high first at somewhere like Birmingham, I guarantee it. And also, less than half the mathmos at trinity get 1st’s, so your your conception is also wrong

Going to be starting this in september to focus on Analysis, really looking forward to it
Great video 👍!! Can't wait to see your 2023 😁!!
Ellie should go to IMPA in Brazil, so she'd compare and verify that the Masters at IMPA is as demanding, if not more, compared to Cambridge Part III.
Thank you so much for this video, I really appreciate it and ofc congratulations!
Never be apprehensive about any course which you chose to in-role in. love what you will do, now, and in your future life.

Unrelated to Cambridge but I’ve just firmed Bristol for maths and physics. Would you say you enjoyed it ? Or have any tips at all cos I’m terrified

How are you with the student Abdelhakim from Chad and I want the mathematics curriculum for the University of Cambridge first year mathematics
When did you start writing your essay?
I started during Michaelmas break so January time but worked on it until the hand in date around April/May time :)

Look in this link to find right solution for Fermat's Last Theorem
I'm an Academic weapon 💪💪
Good for quant trader at Goldmans sachs?
Part III Mathematical Statistics, would be a perfect degree for a QT role at any HF or IB.

Of course, the way you think will develop as you take more advanced courses but won’t need the specific theorems. I’m a number theorist who never took a probability course…
I can now confirm this degree is the hardest maths course in the world 😂
gd. vid. thanks. its like relativity in the sea isnt it.:)..
This girl is tough
math
I heard Math55 was the hardest yet not sure if that is thru Cambridge or not, off hand
Math55 is a singular course (two semester long) whereas Part III is a full degree :)
