<p>Is it possible for Wharton student to have two minors and of course a major and finish all the requirement in 4 years? Like MATH MINOR (7 cus) and a psychology minor (6 cus)???</p>
<p>If you plan it correctly you can.</p>
<p>A math minor is possibly the easiest minor for a Wharton student. You have to take math 104, so if you take Stat 430-431 for the core and Finance 235 (or another Wharton course that's a math cognate) either for your concentration or for your business electives, that leaves you with 114, 240, and one upper level math class to fulfill your minor. I also believe that math classes count towards science electives.</p>
<p>A psych minor is also doable, though you might want to consider a minor in consumer psychology.</p>
<p>I thought about consumer psychology but I want to major in Marketing so I cannot take it that way but by doing psychology minor and Marketing major I will study the same courses as for consumer psychology.</p>
<p>I didn't understand the STAT thing, I thought I need to take stat 101 and 102 for the core. is it the same like STAT 430-431?</p>
<p>I can't go into the differences between 101-102 vs 430-431 because I havn't taken any of them yet (though I'm taking 430 next semester). Stat 430 requires math 114 while 101 only requires 104. 430-431 fulfills the same requirement 101-102 does while also counting towards the math minor and opening up upper level stat classes if you decide to pursue more of them.</p>
<p>What are the main differences b/w a math minor and a stat minor? I think I'd major in finance and then minor in one of the two.</p>
<p>math and stat are different things, so you take different classes. you could always look into double concentrating in finance and stat and minoring in math.</p>
<p>For Wharton students, stat is a concentration but math is a college minor. The stat concentration is 4 courses, and most of them are more "applied".</p>
<p>A math concentration is 6-7 classes, but a lot overlap. They're generally more theoretical with a few applied electives.</p>
<p>If you're going for one of them, it's easy to pick up the other. You'll want to start by taking Math 114, Math 240 and Stat 430 and 431.</p>
<p>ah just do it like my crazy friend</p>
<p>triple major... between seas, the college, and wharton:</p>
<p>bas computer science, math, and finance!</p>
<p>Is it a got thing to take STAT 430 and 431 as a business core instead of STAT 101 and STAT102?
I read that STAT 101 and 102 is Business Statistics isn't it better for business students?
And STAT 430 is Probability. and 431 is Statistical Inference so how can it be instead of the Introductory courses?</p>
<p>I was looking through the course requirements of the Actuarial Math minor and the Actuarial science minor. The minor requires 8 course units while the concentration only requires four! Why does the MINOR require more course units than the concentration itself?! I think I am getting something wrong here.</p>
<p>I'm still confused about math minor.
I want to take:
Math104
Math114
Math240
STAT430
STAT431
If I want MATH 312 so I can't take MATH370/371/502/503/313/513 right? What can I take?
I can choose only one of this, right?</p>
<p>Another question... PSYCHOLOGY MINOR!</p>
<p>If I would take this 6 courses---
PSYC001,
One in each sector:PSYC 127, PSYC 160, PSYC 153,
MKTG 211
STAT 101/430, </p>
<p>Would I fulfill all the psychology minor requirements?</p>
<p>I'm not sure about the MGTK211 isn't it a Wharton course? and what about STAT 430? is it the same like STAT101? It isn't written there.</p>
<p>Someone else would be better to do Stat 101-102 vs 430-431, but my take on it is that 430-431 is more theoretical, requires more math, and has fewer business application examples. However, it'll probably lay a better foundation for more quantitative courses. FWIW, my friend's advisor (the Huntsman advisor) basically made him do the 430-431 route and he says that she encourages all her kids to go that route.</p>
<p>If you know that you do not want to take upper level algebra classes or other upper level classes with 370 as a prereq, I'd take Math 312 (also because it can count towards a Stat concentration). Math classes at the 500 level are Master's level classes so I don't think you'd want to take them anyway. I'd take what you have laid out for the math minor, but you still need one elective. Don't worry about the fact that taking math 312 blocks you out of other classes because there are more than enough other classes you can take for that elective.</p>
<p>Don't stress the minors too much (or even classes like STAT). You're probably not taking most of these classes next semester so just get on campus and talk to the advisors in each department.</p>
<p>class parallels should be discussed with your advisor - the syllabus and curriculum may change in such a way that one class is no longer accepted in place of another to fulfill a requirement. so ask (when you'll be taking those classes) whether or not they fulfill psyc minor reqs.
also, dont sweat minors. they kind of just fall into place.</p>
<p>
<p>triple major... between seas, the college, and wharton:</p>
<p>bas computer science, math, and finance!
</p>
<p>You can double major between schools? How does that work?</p>
<p>well you apply to do it</p>
<p>which is only particularly difficult if you aren't in wharton and want to get a wharton degree</p>
<p>otherwise, you just have to finish all the requirements for each degree</p>
<p>The comment about waiting until you get to campus to figure out minors and whatnot is 100% true. You'll know way more after being on campus for 2 weeks than you ever could <em>before</em> landing on campus. I would say that very few people start out planning for a minor - instead they usually take classes that interest them and after a while realize that with 1 or 2 more courses they'll have a complete minor. Minors can also be a good way to make a coherent/deeper exploration with your electives.</p>
<p>Stat 430 and 431 are the honors/harder/more rigorous counterpart to 101 and 102. Don't let the titles fool you. 101 and 102 are application-based because most students are frankly too dumb/disinterested to figure out applications on their own if they were taught only theory. 430 and 431 still have plenty of applications but they recognize your quantitative reasoning skills.</p>
<p>You should know whether you like math or not (you might be surprised to learn that there are quite a few Wharton students who would have been engineers/math majors/science majors at another school). 430/431 are for people who will take more heavily quantitative courses in the future. 101 and 102 are for the vast majority of Wharton students who won't. If you think you're good at math (got a 5 in BC calc with no problem, or are several years ahead of your grade in math and enjoy that stuff), take 430/431 even if they're not required.</p>
