Yeah I reckon, I mean just look at those polls where everyone is asked to estimate their HSC mark for each of their subjects, and in many cases, the statistics are so wrong. for example like 12% of people think they will get a raw mark over 90% raw mark in the HSC for 4 unit, and I severely...

yeah well people can easily lie about their marks, which I think a few do in these forums

for me, I'll look at the first two digits and expect to see a 99, and it will be all good. Then I will look at the last two, which are important cause they determine if I can get into the course I want to do at uni.

At our school there is no barbeque or get-together thing to collaborate about what everyone got. They simply want us to mail our UAI's to the school, which I think is stupid because it is the school's responsibility to ask the student if they want to know there UAI's.

I think the poll has been tampered with, like all the polls. I don't think 10% of people on this forum willl get 99+.

the count down is on ...........

Re: Re: UAI build up... yes I agree, it is only a 4 digit number (including the digits to the right of the decimal point) that only determines what university courses you can get into.

Hmm, I must be the only person whose smart but does bad in multiple choice.

I am hoping to get on that all-rounder's list so I hope no one has heard about it (cos I haven't).

I did Business studies in year 10, got into the top 10% of the state, and it still scaled like crap.

Yeah why wait till you get your UAI. No one will be able to resist the temptation to view their HSC results when all their friends are talking about who got what etc etc.

Yeah I think they will to. Because more people will probably achieve a band 6 in all the subjects.

I'm just interested to see if there are any smart people out there who don't go well in multiple choice questions. Cos that's what I'm like

Hope that doesn't happen to me :D

That's just tough natstar, I mean if you think about it, there is no other better system. Some subjects have to be scaled up and some down, and that's just the way it is.

yeah, I would say the scaling for subjects this year will be similar to that of last year. So if you use lazseeker you will get a rough idea of the UAI you could get based on your HSC results.

Yeah, I think a lot of people on this forum are pretty smart (or they could just be overly ambitious) :D

I'm not sure about that either. I know they \'ve contacted people for top of subjects in the state, but I thought the UAI of 100 and the all-rounder people were notified later

Well I wouldn't get into a selective college then even though I'm pretty smart. This is because I'm crap at multiple choice but am very good at short and long answer responses that require depth. Yeah, it's been on the news about the coaching colleges guaranteing a place for kids at a...

hmm I think curiousity will get the better of me on thursday. So I will still check my HSC results on the day, but will care much more about my UAI
