    Is anyone confident that they will perform well in the UMAT?

    no way in hell you could get in with 55%...think more like 85%+ with a good ATAR, 90%+ with a mediocre one

    To anyone who got an ATAR of 99.95 (was it hard?)

    honestly asking about how hard it is to achieve a certain mark isnt going to help you..just knuckle down and study but maintain a bit of balance too... so if that means going to some 18ths in yr 12, go for it.. ur mark only matters for uni, once ur in you basically forget all about the HSC...

    Umat

    the acer prac materials are alot easier than the actual exam though.. S1 in particular is easier. From experience i wouldn't bother practicing S1/S2 extensively as they aren't really something you can improve on. S2 is easy as, so maybe look at some of the questions to get a feel for them and...

    Umat

    also an important tip to remember is don't spend too much time on one question. If you cant figure it out within a minute or so, make a reasonable guess by cancelling out the obviously incorrect answers and move on, because as freshofftheboat said the time constraints are a challenge.

    Songs that send shivers down your spine?
