also, reading a lot of the language helps. for instance, with spanish, my teacher ordered these magazines with articles in them and activities to do. it was a really good way to learn the language. there's also a bunch of online tutorial websites that teach languages, so do a search... :)

that's the thing - we're not sure why they're there!! :)

i did functionalist theory in the exam! :) i didn't expect it to be a 6-marker (?) though!

Regional Entry Test. You have to be within certain boundaries of UWS (determined by postcode). The RET score can provide an alternative entry as long as your UAI is within 10 points of last year's cutoff for the desired course, and your RET is high enough to be considered for that course. :)

doesn't UAC write the test and everything anyway?? UWS just uses the results for alternative entry...

no, i did it the other day... i swapped two of mine. if you log on to UACs website, you can do it from there! :)

they should be at your school by now... ask your teacher! :) then check to see if you have USOs!! :p

hahaha i should really learn to read.... there's a part of the letter that says UAC will be sending out more info on the results... my bad :D

But UAIs are rankings too! congrats on your RET score... too bad it's not high enough.. maybe the cut-offs will go down for you! i got 89 - pretty stoked... feeling a little more relaxed, knowing that if i don't get my 1st preference, i *might* get my second. :)

i don't think it's an indication... don't worry too much, heaps of people get higher UAIs than their RET scores and don't end up using it anyway! that said, i'll be over the moon if my UAI is similar to my RET!! :)

there was an interesting article in the Sun Herald yesterday about repaying HECS... they said that you're better off to defer it because interest is based on inflation which is at ~2.5% it works out different because HECS is government subsidised. full fee paying people get lower UAI (i...

i thought there was going to be a "run down" of where we got our marks... instead you get two bits of paper and in the centre of one, a number in bold font. bit disappointed with the reporting of it, but still happy with what i got!! :D

i got 89 :D very very happy!! it will come in an envelope with UWS's logo on the front...

hey i got mine today!! they come in the mail...

Private Messaging... i think you can enable it by going to your User Control Panel. anyways, we'll have to wait and see how many people's PIPs have been affected by this monstrosity!! :p i'm off to bed!! goodnight!!

i edited my last post cos i'm paranoid, and i couldn't send you a PM... :p last year i always used to say "omg these year 12s should just go and get a life! they've finished school and they still come!!" i always went around to visit all my teachers before my exams... and i think people were...

I made the poll!! (edited cos i'm paranoid!) P.S: everyone who reads this thread is invited to vote on the poll "USOs on PIPs" :D

Let me explain on behalf of Codename_Alpha and myself... It was brought to my attention by Codename_Alpha that two small holes, representing the presence of a staple has been created on the front covers of our PIPs. :confused: We were intrigued as to how many fellow Society and...

let me try... i'll write something good! (see my vocab is suffering cos of this HSC!) :p

ah, never mind.... you had the right idea!! ;) are you gonna make the poll?? :)
