They're still eligible. It's just that some schools have a minimum number of units that students must take on in the preliminary year.

 

[Danger]

are you serious? i thought it was at least 12 units for all schools..

 

[SoulSearcher]

It's 12 units for all Year 11 students. Do they happen to be accelerated students? I was carrying only 11 units in Year 11, but then I had already done 2 units in year 12.

I'm from Sydney Technical High and i'm doing 11 units. i could've done a 1 unit course like psychology or studies of religion but i decided not to pick it. English Extension 1 wasn't what i wanted to do so the deputy let me have 11 units

 

[sle3pe3bumz]

.. .. is that possible ? THATS BS ! ><"

 

[Jachie]

This is fucked up. I could have sworn 12 units was the MINIMUM amount needed in your preliminary year in order to receive a UAI. Accelerating aside, of course.

I am quite confused.

 

[Danger]

haha i am incredibly jealous now

 

[Kujah]

Me too. But I'd rather do 12 units

what??

I wanted to drop EX1 to drop down to 11 units and was told I couldn't because of board of studies requirements.

I believe it is 12 units, I'll have a look around for where it officially states that later if no one finds it.

yay ! SS to the rescue ! =]

 

[sle3pe3bumz]

so in a way, the schools ripping us off, lying to us, messing around with our studies, distrusting the decisions we make etc. but only to look out for us in a sense ?

 

[sle3pe3bumz]

then whats with the other people .. im totally confused ! ><" Ah well, I term left.

 

[Kujah]

That means there's about a term and a few weeks left and we'll be starting our HSC Time flies through pretty fast.

hey, does anyone here know if it's possible to do a LOTE course in year 12 if you haven't already in the preliminary year?

would they be able to obtain an UAI?

someone i know wants to do that.

In my school, we have to do at least 13 units at the begining of the year. Some people can't cope with the Ext1 unit or a subject ,so they drop to 12 unit. A few really smart people are doing 14units with both Eng and Maths Ext.

I go to Sydney Girls High School and it is possible to do 11 units since they stopped making it compulsory for everyone to do Ext Maths and English in year 11.
