I reckon imagine how hard it would be to obtain a dist avg with people of such calibre

I noticed *looks at flyin's post count and looks at MinAi's* ....not far off. Oh well ateast I've moved into 9th best poster.

I know *remembers cut-off for combined law at USyd* but at UNSW it's only 99.3

yeah I was reading in a paper somewhere that all the mathematics graduates were all going into business/finance, hence creating a shortage of mathematics teachers. But the pay in a finance related job is much better than a teacher if you are good.

less confusion when there is a smaller population size at a uni open day.

I'm thinking to transfer into combined law at Usyd at the end of first year, my UAI (98.5) wasn't too far off the cut-off, maybe if i maintain a dist avg I may be able to transfer.

At university of Sydney I think the compulsory commerce units are accounting 1 A and 1B, business information systems, Econometrics 1001, and micro and macro economics. I went to enrolment and I asked the person there and he mentioned these, I'm not entirely sure myself though sorry. We...

I wouldn't do the HSC again especially if I had to go back to the same school again, that would be an embarrassment. If you are going to uni you only need the HSC to get in, once you are in you can transfer etc providing your results are good enough. I think it's a waste of time going...

I went to Knox Grammar School from years 5-7, and I always thought that Abbotsleigh was the "sister school" to Knox.

neither, I only started posting after the HSC.

No one cares much about the HSC after u finish, it's only used for uni entrance (if you are going to uni that is), so you shouldn't make it your life, go play some sport like tennis or something

Yeah I noticed that 4 unit maths in 2002 got scaled no where near as well as it did in 2001, prob because too many people were doing it and hence brought down the potential scaling.

Nah definitely not, I'm hoping to go into a finance related job

hmm I thought schools were sent a list of what each student was doing. Maybe they just go through the paper and individually search for each students name.

there was no dux in my grade, i think because it was too close to call, I got 98.5, and the top UAI in my school was 98.55.

that's a pretty vague and way too open question.

Do most teachers at school just have a Bachelor of Arts degree (BA) and an education degree or was it just my ex-school? I was looking over all the teacher qualifications for my ex school and about 97% have a Bachelor of arts, even maths teachers (who u would think would have a science...

Yeah tennis is the best, I've been playing it for the last 7 years in comps and that, but recently haven't played for about 4 months so maybe my serve and ground shots are rusty. I also really like playing cricket, especially tonking a few sixes into the car park and breaking some windows...

how is commerce (lib studes) much different to commerce?

somehow I don't think they find out, I mean if the school knew what course and uni I was going to they wouldn't have to ask my sister at school especially the principal.
