Zain Hafiz

Hey! I'm Zain. As a first-year mathematician, I understand the feeling of being new and curious about what you'll be learning. It's vital to me that we're all satisfied with our curriculum and what we're provided as mathematics students. As your academic representative, I will be the listening ear for every student's thoughts, and make a strong case to higher-ups if you feel like the timetabling needs changing, the t ...

Raghav Choudhuri

Hey, I'm Raghav! I'm doing a three years Mathematics with Statistics for Finance course (quite the mouthful). I play basketball (I think I've made M3), adore reading literature, and like most of you, really like doing mathematics (apart from combinatorics). I believe I would make a good candidate for your academic representative for two reasons: The first is I have plenty of prior experience in a similar rol ...

Hey everyone, I’m Dan, and I’m running to be your First Year Academic Rep. Let’s face it, maths is tough enough without feeling like we’re in it alone.

There is obviously a lifestyle shift for everyone, but also a change in our academic experiences. Whether you take to the new teaching styles and content easily or struggle to wrap your head around why 3*2 needs 25 lines of working, I believe we all ...

Ahmad Orfali

Hey everyone, My name is Ahmad; you'll probably hear my name a lot once I solve the Riemann hypothesis. I am a first-year undergraduate doing pure math, and I am standing to be elected for academic rep for a couple of key factors that will ensure the views of the whole cohort will be heard. Firstly, I have connections with 2nd years and above who study math, so I can get any concerns or problems answered very quickl ...
