60 uai ? diffifcult (1 Viewer)

[YcantIstudy]

Is it hard to get a 60uai, I need a 60uai to get into an engineering course at UWS. What kind of marks do u need to get to get a 60uai,

my subjects are
legal studies
Business Studies
General Math
Standard English
IT ( VET course) category B subject


if this helps

thanks








P.s. sorry for posting here, i didnt know how to navigate throught he site to find the uai section

my brother got a 64 with some sweet band 3s and a band 4 in chem and physics

so yeah, i dunno. WHY DO YOU KIDS KEEP ASKING THESE DUMB QUESTIONS.

just do as best you can and aim a bit higher than the UAI cutoff man. gosh.

 

[Iruka]

Why are you trying to do engineering with General Maths?

 

[boris]

general maths and no physics or chemistry.


good luck with that.

 

[YcantIstudy]

i was thinking of doing a bridging course b4 uni , had a few frnd hu do engineering with gen maths they can cope so i thought i would b able to also


im doing an electrical trade vet course atm , seems alright , the maths i can handle

 

[YcantIstudy]

WHY DO YOU KIDS KEEP ASKING THESE DUMB QUESTIONS.


iono, i guess we scared of not getting uai we need

what type of engineering are you planning on doing?

See my Q and A thread.

 

[watatank]

if you are an above (state) average student then it won't be too hard. the median uai is about 66.

Really? Thats interesting. Does that mean the distribution of the UAI's is negatively skewed? What year was this?

 

[watatank]

yeah the distribution is negatively skewed.

you would think the average is 50. but this is only true if no one drops out after year 10, which is what the uai assumes. but of course, there are quite a number who drop out before that so the average uai score (who actually sits the hsc) is quite a bit higher than 50; 66 was the number we were told. it *might* change from year to year depending how many dropouts there are but that's the gist of it.

On a slightly more technical note, it is not entirely dependent on the number of drop-outs, but also how the drop-outs performed in the SC relative to their continuing fellow students.

Ycantistudy you have to be careful with general maths cause it has pretty much no releveance to engineering, you should be doing at least 2 unit maths and physics would also save you alot of stress i should know i did no physics and general maths and now im going very poorly in my structural engineering course.

ic, im planning to do electrical engineering

I got 30 UAI back when I did my HSC and I'm happily unemployed since finishing High School

An engineering course with General Mathematics and no Physics. Good luck.

An engineering course with General Mathematics and no Physics. Good luck.

Well UWS should offer some basic or fundamental level of maths for students who don't do Maths or Physics and they then can progress to levels of Maths and Physics appropriate for Engineering students.
Will take much more time though.
The maths and physics at uni is at the summit of high school level and beyond.

i hav fought about being a sparky, but being exposed to asbestos worries me
