10 Units (1 Viewer)

Out of interest, has anyone who has done only 10 units ever achieved 100? I think someone told me it hasn't been done. I check the UAC reports (table A7) for 06 and 07 and nope, everyone who got 100 did 11+ units.

So what say you?

My friend done 10 and got 99.9 - i dont care to ask people who got uai 100 how many units they done

our convo simply ends at 'wtf did yu say 100'

of course someone who did 10 units can achieve 100 UAI. it's just logically less likely to occur as you have comparatively no room for mistakes or epic stuff-ups.

Not a matter of can, but has it been done before?

I think it was a girl from class of 2002. Topped Biology or something like that. Yep, it was a long time ago, they were still talking about it when I joined this site back in 04.

People doing 10 units (2007)
100 UAI: 0%
99 UAI: 17%
98 UAI: 20%
97 UAI: 26%
96 UAI: 27%

Edit: Didn't read your last sentence of you already checking the UAC reports.

The stat suggests that the students with higher UAIs do more than 10 units. But determining causality is difficult. It is likely that the more academically able students complete more units, so it is not surprising that they gain higher UAIs. On the other hand, if students only study 10 units of UAI courses and do badly in one course, their UAIs will be depressed.

The data show that the better students (judging from Schol cert results) did, indeed, tend to study more units and within each group there was a tendency for students who studied more units to obtain higher UAIs. This does not, however, completely answer the question of causality. The relationship between number of units studied and UAI within each group might result from personal attributes including interest, motivation, effort and time management. You cannot assume that simply by studying more units, your UAI will be increased.

Hey, uac reports will come out on the 20th this year again rite. or is it earlier

And what a fine example you are dp624 Second person (I know of) to get a UAI of 100 with 10 units.
