There's 2 steps in the MyUNSW website. You need to first enrol in the course and then click the select classes option after and you can see the times the classes are at and start selecting them. If you can't see the select classes then maybe it's not available at the moment for the commencing...
Was the scholarships just based on academics or did you have to do other stuff for it
All the scholarships at UNSW even if it says it's an academic/merit based one you still have to fill out an application that they will read. So you can't really just solely rely on I got a 99 ATAR and so I will...
From my experience being successful for 4 different scholarships, there isn't really a set defined date for each scholarship to be offered out. It works on a process of the scholarships office assessing the applications and then sending out offers one by one. A certain time period is given for...
This is not really a scholarship tbh in the normal sense of what one is. It's just a way for the uni to attract high level students its basically like a sign on bonus you would have at a company. From my own experience getting DUX at my school, AAA (academic achievement award) you get paid $4k...

Here's a list I made a few years back
I can only speak for UNSW as I'm not aware of what kind of system goes on at other unis but you can probably find this easily through a quick search as the prizes/awards available are usually published on some website. It depends on the school and what they offer.
In the school of chemistry...
No but I won some awards and medals based on top performance in a subject or year so that's how I know I came top in those subjects/the highest WAM for the degree that year.
It's not really comparable since it's based on different things. I was just giving that as a description of a 90 mark in hsc is not the same as a 90 mark in uni due to no scaling and aligning being present. Some degrees it's harder to get higher WAMs than others just do to how the marking works...
In general having a high WAM will be beneficial for getting your first opportunity at an internship or job but after that the skills and experience you gain from working would be more important. So I wouldn't really focus all your energy on getting a high WAM and neglecting things like work...
Yeah first year a decent amount of people can get a 85+ WAM since the courses are generally easier and there is more support available in terms of study notes, question booklets and things that are similar to how you can study for HSC exams. But yeah afterwards the difficulty to get that kind of...
Coming from someone who had a wam near 90 in their degree (adv science - chemistry major and math minor).
This kind of WAM is near impossible for 99% of people. I don't mean to put it in a way that hard work doesn't yield good results because it is an important factor in achieving high marks...
Yeah so for getting the band 6s you don't get anything. Other than if you get like the highest ATAR in your school and go UNSW then you get a AAA scholarship (it's like a one off payment of around 4k) or scientia scholarship (99.90+ ATAR and its around 10k per year but only available in some...
Are you referring to like giving scholarships for HSC all-rounders (band 6 or E4 in 10+ units) or just in general like someone who has good marks, leadership skills, extracurriculars and sporting achievements? because they don't specifically offer anything for a student getting the 10+ units...
No they are not required. You might need to know why a major vs minor product forms but they are not going to ask you to draw out the reaction mechanism in the exam since it's not a dot point listed in the syllabus
The marks aren't as important as like say high school. Good marks might help you in applying for your first internship if that is relevant to your degree so that then you can gain experience. But you need to be well rounded i.e. experience + decent marks + other skills like working in groups...
Nah you won't get state rank in first scenario. State rank is based on the final HSC mark and so that would mean its based on the person getting 89 + 99 divided by 2, which is not enough for the usually 97+ cut offs for most subjects
The second scenario is just unlucky. They only have a limited...
