    What to say when people ask what your atar was?

    I was the guy that was loudly swearing about how terribly I did. :spin: it depends on the people really. Some people think 90+ is good but some people only think 95+ or 99+ is. Like, when I told people my ATAR pretty much everyone was disappointed. :/ lol This, pretty much.

    Exam was today.... I am probably the only one on here though.

    "Aboriginals" is grammatically incorrect. It should be "Aborigines," "Aboriginal peoples," or "Indigenous Australians."

    Yeah, if you're willing then just do the stuff that isn't history-y but not much of it will be useful. I guess. Well physics in sem 1 is mainly 4U mechanics and Thermodynamics (which is learned in first sem Chem as well so you don't really need any b/g phys knowledge). Well, you'll be fine...

    Preferences & Offers questions

    yeah, that summarises it nicely. Otherwise the cutoffs for all the courses would be higher and many courses would go unfilled because people would get offers but not actually ever intend on doing the course.

    Can someone clarify how offers are made?

    Some unis allocate a cutoff. It depends on the course. Engineering degrees at UNSW are given cutoffs of 91, law at ANU is 96 (iirc), advanced science at USyd, UNSW, UoW, etc. are given a cutoff of 95, and advanced courses and law courses at UWS are given cutoffs of 90.

    chemical engineering

    86 is fine. If you got below 80 I would suggest against it. Also you can go to the enrolment day and ask the advisors there what you should do. (because I'm not sure if you can do the fundamental courses for engineering) By basic maths I mean mathematics (2U), but not hard 2U. Yeah, second...
