    Is it true that UTS business school is absolutely crap?

    not to doubt the credibility of your mate's brother, but it seems highly unlikely that he is earning $70k a year after only seemingly having completed 1-2 years of university. Some graduate salaries aren't even that high for accounting in some firms. You are probably thinking of $30k, not...

    A Question about scaling and moderation in Economics

    yes, it will moderate to a final mark of around 95. in terms of the scaling to an ATAR equivalent of 99 part, that's what you will see if you enter 95 into an atar calculator. basically, that is telling you that you are in approximately the top 1% of the people doing the subject (that is what...

    Is it true that UTS business school is absolutely crap?

    yes, how could I forget that! LOL. I myself am working in an accounting firm, and this is something that I am sure will be looked on favourably despite the fact that I go to UTS (even though I know there is nothing dreadfully wrong with the uni hahaha!)

    haha its hard to tell, I'm only at uni at nights (which might explain why I don't see too many hot chicks ;) ) because I work full-time in accounting firm too (as part of a cadetship). so we can perhaps conclude that the good looking ladies appear during the day? LOL

    Hsc exam pre thoughts

    Woohoo! haha, considering I basically predicted those too, you should get studying on those things, as I correctly predicted the business studies section 4 and told my friends, while also predicting multiple things for trials at my school this year etc, and also correctly predicting there'd be...

    It was external stability for Section 4 of last year's paper - I don't think they'll be testing that again! And the environment was also tested in Section 3, so hopefully you're safe there. :)

    Recommendations for Subscription to SMH/Economist?

    I subscribed to the Sydney Morning Herald during Year 12, and I thought this was relatively useful. However, I also was putting aside about 1-2 hours per week to research on the Internet to find out what is going on, any new and updated statistics etc, and I thought this was a very useful thing...

    Leading Edge Holiday Workshops

    not a problem! no, I don't know anyone that went tutoring at leading edge, unfortunately. what you've said is almost spot on, except if you're really looking to penetrate band 6 (and when I say penetrate I mean 95+ and potentially state rank), you need to be doing some independent research...

    Is it true that UTS business school is absolutely crap?

    It has absolutely nothing to do with what uni you went to... at the end of the day, you graduate from university with a piece of paper, and this does not form part of the criteria for graduate employment selection. Instead, it is based on stuff that is less superficial than "what uni you went...

    Should I be in the top 10 for ranking?

    Yes, you should work hard to do as well as you can and if that means being in the top 5-10, then so be it! Just try not to have any regrets with the work you've put in throughout the year! Tips to maximise your marks - well I'd say really have a good, strong set of notes, get these together...

    A Question about scaling and moderation in Economics

    No, that's a bit too low! Last year I got 94/100 raw for 97/100 final. You'd probably need abou 89-91 raw I'd think for a 95! Depending on the difficulty of the exam of course, as last year's exam was rather obscure.

    essay question

    As I said above, they won't give you more marks if they're irrelevant. But if the graph is appropriate/insightful, then it will create a better impression and thus most likely increase you mark. :)

    Who thinks they are going to get 99+?

    True that! I got 99.7 with no extensions, sciences or languages! :) But I obviously had to score very high in everything and for english and business I was in the top 0.1-0.3% and economics I came 3rd in the state. it is POSSIBLE, but by no means an easy feat.
