Real analysis is indeed 'elegant math', i'm a physics major but i would've loved to do a double major in math.

[soyoltoi]

Do you have any friends who did part III in pure maths like geometry or algebra? Would be curious to know how it was as I'm thinking of applying.

[Gachtutlam]

Yes i really like to study mathematics and i just want to learn deeply.

Hi Ellie 👋!! Great video 👍👍. I would love to know what both of your routines were and how they differ from your friend Victoria and you.
Sending lots of love ❤❤

hey Ellie 👋 i really enjoy your videos and i admire your dedicated and hardworking soul profoundly.
im still a high school student and im looking forward to studying abroad, and as a Moroccan citizen i really want to know more about Cambridge University and what mark is required to study maths there and eventually to get a scholarship (bachelor degree).
thank you <3

Ellie why did you answer the question about choosing finance by showing hands and fingers movements? From where did you learn this gesture about finance?

[Sumi]

Great video! I was just wondering did you take the full a level further maths from year 12 to year 13 before studying maths at uni?

I'm going on to study a maths degree next year - do you think its better to get an ipad or a laptop (if you could only get one)? For a laptop, do you have any recommendations? I'm leaning towards an iPad since i struggle staying organized with papers even if I have the large folders and I'd know it'd help me with that from previous use, but I've seen other people say a laptop should be the priority instead.

Do you think it is possible for an engineering major to do the part iii course?

[lucas]

hi, how did you get into engineering with a maths degree, what modules should i take with my maths degree for an engineering career still be an option for me?

If you want to be an accountant just study the ACA/ACCA/CMAP and if your not confident with that do AAT first. You'll easily be able to find an employer which will pay these for you, and youre working. So a free qualification and you're earning money instead of debt, and you get experience. Degrees are great, but honestly pretty pointless if you know you want to be an accountant. This is coming from someone doing a Maths degree to get OUT of accounting cos it's so dull.

What graduate course should someone apply to at Cambridge if they are interested in Mathematical Physics?

Is statistics hard?
Like im still in highschool right now and we have basic stats like mean, standard deviation and variance etc.
Im assuming those things are nothing as compared to actual College/University right?

[Responsible-mjro]

Can you prove all properties of periodic function?

[heavycreate]

good morning ellie . hi .. 🇮🇳🇮🇳🙋‍♂️🙌👦🇮🇳🇮🇳💚

[prod.kashkari]

Did you guys have to take statistics ever?

[Responsible-mjro]

Hey solving jee questions is my advice, not request ok .
