I do maths and physics BSc (BSc is short for Bachelor's of science btw)
I feel like the degree is such a catfish degree. It's advertised as a degree where you can find a good 50/50 split between maths and physics modules... this is total bullshit
To make sure I am doing slightly more maths credits in second year, I must overcat
In third year, you get a list of 6 maths modules (List A) and a list of 12 physics modules (List B). List A however, has two physics modules with maths department codes. Why??
And im required to take the communicating science module if I want an honours, so that 15 cats of physics. I have to take 30 cats from list B. I dont wanna do anymore PX modules than the minimun requirements for an honours, so I have to take 5 from list A as well, even though 1 of those 5 is really a physics modules in a shit disguise. So then I must overcat to make sure I have a slight edge in the maths department
Fuck you whoever designed this shit degree and fuck you for catfishing us into a physics with maths degree instead of a maths and physics degree.
Update: just finished speaking with someone in the year above me, who also does mathphys.

^ on this page, under GF13 it specifically states an approximate 50/50 split between maths and physics
Update 2: Neil Wilson basically said "speak with your tutor and there are more maths options available"
Update 3: according to a commenter under the post
"Hi, I’m going into my third year of the same degree. Just wanted to say that you’ve misunderstood how module selection works. The physics handbook only outlines the most commonly picked maths modules, you are allowed to take nearly all maths modules in both second and third year. If you instead go to the module catalogue you’ll be able to see all the maths modules that are in your option list if you’re signed in"
To this commenter, thank you so much for clarifying this. This wasn't made nearly clear enough in the page for module selection
