The only problem with your courses may be Standard English. Doing that subject gives you maximum UAI of 99.something, instead of the full 100, so getting 99+ if you wanted to do dentistry at Queensland will be tough. :( You can definately get above 90 if you work though, even if they don't...

Re: Re: Reactions to UAIs! I'd rather not say...I like my anonymity.;) It's a public school on Sydneys North Shore...it usually get about 8-10 or so people with 90+, and the schools estimated average last year was 60, apparently...that's all I'll reveal.:cool:

I'm 100% sure that thats not true...I hope this doesn't come off sounding rude, but if thats "what it took" to make them divorce, then I'm sure their marriage wouldn't have lasted much longer anyway...it must have already been on rocky grounds. As for missing out on the course...well, shit...

Hopefully Sydney...if I get in:( i don't know which UNI is "the best". It would differ from course to course, although people usually say Sydney is best overall...but who cares? It all comes down to who offers the course you want-not reputation.:)

I think American music is very "manufactured" to radio. These days- if it doesn't fit-stations won't play it. (yeah, there are exceptions but very few...and becoming even fewer as time goes on.) Australia is more leniant when it comes to playing new stuff, but I think a lot of it is influenced...

My ideas on Noel Pearson is that his speech sucked. Even my English teacher admitted that he thought the speech was boring and badly composed. The best speech was Emma Goldmans-there was heaps to write about.

My UAI was higher than I had expected, and should get me into my course of choice, so I should be happy with it...but I'm disappointed because I know I could have done better. I didn't manage my time properly coming up to the HSC and spent too much time on on subject, and did a big fuck all for...

:eek: I think we are leaps and bounds ahead in music than anywhere else! I own around about 120 CDs...I think over 100 of those are by Aussie artists.:)

Avril Lavinge Blink 182 Eminem Holly Valance Creed Limp Biscuit (I refuse to spell it their moronic way) -There are many bands/artists I dislike, but those are my top ones that I hate with an absolute passion.

Thats true... but if record companies tried to force an image on her, she should just tell them to fuck off. Theres nothing really that wrong with putting on an act and writing a throwaway single, getting your fame and millions of dollars if thats all you're about...but she claims to be some...

What did your parents, friends, teachers, etc -think about your UAI? (also say your UAI if you reply!) I got 92. My parents were quite happy...my sister had gotton 96.05 so I think they were a little disappointed, but they never said anything about it to me. I e-mailed by principal cos...

If you can find any way at all into your course, then it's a total waste of time to repeat, just cos you may not have been happy with your UAI. After UNI/Tafe goes back, no one will even think about their UAIs again.

I don't get that...your UAI just your rank out of 100, right? And therefore...shouldn't 50 be the average UAI? I don't get it...can someone explain?:(

So far, it looks like I'm doing Applied Science (Speech Pathology) at Sydney UNI. The cut off last year was 89.25, and I got 92.00 ...so, I should make it in. (But I'm not sure...does anyone know anyone who does this, and what they think of it? Or have any ideas yourself about why it may be a...

She shouldn't have to "market" herself by the way she dresses...if she truly wanted to protest, she shouldn't be trying to shove her "punk" persona down everyone throats it's the same thing everyone else is doing! Music should be about the music...nothing else. Least of all fashion. (but I...

If it's not in the syllabus, they can't ask it...they have to stick to that, cos everyone uses different textbooks! But it may be useful to go through the whole book, to make sure you really understand it....but theres no need to memorise specific things it they're not outlined-just get the...

Our principal asked everyone for their emails earlier in the year so she could check up on peoples UAIs, but I never gave her mine...when the marks came out, she called my to congratuate me on my marks, and then casually asked me why I hadn't put myself on her email list (I just never got round...

You could always try and get into a course thats similar then see if it's possible to transfer into the course you wanted after a year or something...theres usually a way in through the backdoor.;)

Real and true? Erm...no. I'm willing to give credit where it's due-she has an OK voice. But I think thats about all she has going for her...I really don't see what all the fuss is about.:rolleyes:

I was fairly conservative with my percentages, and it predicted 1.6 under my actual UAI...so had I been a bit kinder to myself, it probably would have been pretty spot on.;)
