You have as your sig : Ext 1 Maths // Ext 2 Maths // Adv Eng // Chem // Bio ATAR AIM: 96+ My eldest son did the HSC in 2008 with the exact same subjects, failed MX2 (pobably got around under 50 raw but got a 75 aligned). BTW he got (reported/HSC) marks of : Eng A 84/86; MX1 92/92; Chem...

A raw mark of 79 in last year's paper aligned to 91.6 (or a reported mark of 92) so I agree with b3kh1t.

You'll have to forget about HSC bonus points for combined law as it is ineligible - go hereto check : http://iaro.online.unsw.edu.au/pls/non/hsc_bonus_points.main . You can use the 5 AAA points though.

For a stupid mother of a 4U student (who's currently studying flat-out for this exam), could you please explain this - I don't quite get what your saying here. Cheers HANG ON - Forget it !! I see what you're saying - doh!

From the BOS website: •Band 1 = 0 - 49 marks Each band is aligned to what a student at that level of performance typically knows, understands and can do. The 'average' performance in most courses is usually a mark in the mid-70s (Band 4). Band 1 indicates that a student has not met enough...

How do you know where the E4 cut off was for last year? Cheers

You're right - last year a raw mark or 84/120 or 70% aligned to a 93 (from a fellow BOSer who got his raw marks & posted them - this was his 4u mark).

If you get a band 6 in VA that will effectively "lower" (for want of a better word) the ATAR to 76 as UNSW give out HSC Plus points for subjects relevant to the course (VA is the only course COFA consider for a Bachelor Fine Arts). These "bonus" marks are automatically added in when considering...

Try reading the COFA web page on undergrad entry - http://www.cofa.unsw.edu.au/degrees/how-to-apply/australian-students/ - it will tell you all you need to know accept for HSC subjects considered ie UNSW's HSC Plus. According to the website @...

That's not what I hear - you wouldn't be biased now would you????

This is a UTS course - you're on the wrong board. The course @ UNSW in B Media (Media Production).

Thanks sikhman. Which faculty said that, do you remember? Do you know if it is affected if you DO actually meet the pre-reqs for honours (but don't want to do it - he'll be there for 5 years as it is :))? I ask as my son is actually taking all the required physics pre-reqs for Honours as they...

I KNOW THAT - I said in my OP : "In a straight BSc, if you just complete the pass degree (ie don't do the extra honours year) you can be eligible to receive it as a "Pass with Distinction" if your WAM in the courses contributing to the degree is 75 or higher. " I want to know if it applies to...

I posted this in the Engineering Forum but, as it is a question regarding the BSc degree component of a combined BE BSc, I'll post it here too - hopefully someone will know the answer because no-one at UNSW seems to - they keep flicking you between faculties. I'm posting this on my son's behalf...

I hope someone here knows the answer to this because no-one at UNSW seems to - they keep flicking you between faculties. I'm actually posting this on my son's behalf who is doing the double. In a straight BSc, if you just complete the pass degree (ie don't do the extra honours year) you can...

What a bored person you must be to comment on something of absolutely no significance to anything in this thread. If you must know, that was HSC year of interest to me at the time I was looking around this site for any helpful info - obviously not the year I did the HSC. Does it matter?

Go to First year course information & click on "Course availability" & read this entry and the one below it on choosing your 1st year Physics course. My son studies PV Eng, did both MX1 & MX2 in 2008 HSC but not Physics. He chose to do PHYS1111 Fundamentals of Physics in Session 1 (scored a...

I gleaned this info from the prerequesites for PhB @ ANU 2010 @ ANU - STUDYAT - Bachelor of Philosophy (Honours) ACT Mathematical Methods is equivalent to NSW HSC Mathematics 2 unit ACT Specialist Mathematics Major - Minor is equivalent to NSW HSC Mathematics Extension 1 ACT Specialist...

Isn't this a bit of a moot point now? Preferences closed at midnight last Wednesday and if you get into what ever you had down as your first preference don't UAC just disregard the rest?
