    Nice videos is it intimidating to do maths at uni and what grade in a levels would be decent for math and would further maths be expected do your also feel frustrated when not knowing how to do certain questions lol maths is really competitive people think your a genius if you ace maths when it sums up to passion and dedication

    • @cnutsiggardason2014

      bit late but further maths isnt necessarily required but its highly recommended and you should really want to do it if youre doing a maths degree. grades depend how good the uni is.

    Don't see this comment as a downer (coz it's just a general question) but is a maths degree still relevant? I see most jobs that you can get with a maths degree and most of them (i believe) would mean taking extra steps towards that job after the degree i.e. being an accountant (I don't believe it covers everything there), being a software engineer (you don't really learn any code) ect...

    • @HarrySurplus
      @HarrySurplus  2 года назад +3

      Of course maths degrees are still relevant ! You don't have to focus on the final job at at the end of it. Maths degree open so many doors - not just for maths based carers. A maths degree is a tricky, high demanding degree that shows you have give you great skill. It shows you work hard, have good communication skills (as to be good at maths you have to communicate mathematics to others!) and it's looked at highly by future employees for any job really. And, you do learn some code (I'm currently taking a Python module)!
