[Lostie29]

is there a possibility or has it ever happened?
that a person with a 70+ atar being able to get into a low 90s course??
or isert impossible?

Like for business UTS? do yuo think thers a possibility the cut off will go down?

Don't think so, but you can probably transfer later.

like atm i get 13 bonus points for UTS, and that brings me up to 86.45 but my course is 91.. =(

 

[harrisony]

most unis have a cap for bonus points, just work as hard as you can

 

[Lostie29]

a cap? wat does that mean?

 

[KnifeySpoony]

a maximum amount of bonus points you can get

You can only accumulate a certain number of bonus points.

Like, say, you can get 3 bonus points for each band 6, and 2 for each band 5, but only up to a maxiumum of 8. (this is totally hypothetical, I don't know what caps each unis have)

So you might get three band 6's, but you don't get 9 points, you get the maximum of 8.

nahh its cause UTS gives 10 for acess scheme
and 3 bonus points..
so thats why i get 13

Seems very unlikely you could get into a course there with a 20 point difference then.

 

[Lostie29]
