Is there anybody here who either got a UAI of 99.7+ or knows someone who got 99.7+ but who didn't come in the top 20/10/5 for any of their subjects?? I've talked to a few people who got 99.85, 99.9, 99.95 and they all came in the top 20/10/5 for at least one of their subjects...scary!

it's certainly possible if they do well in all their subjects.

have a play with sam and get a feel for what sort of marks you need to get to achieve a uai in that sort of range. you don't need to excel in a particular course (although it helps if you don't do so well in another).

Well, had my girlfriend not done French, and done 2 marks better in Modern History (which doesn't put her in the top 20), she's still on a SAM 2003 UAI of 99.95

So it's possible.

Hmm...tried that - figured out that I need to get ~92 aligned for all of my subjects to get 99.5 and 96 aligned to get ~99.85 :confused:. It looks like I have a lot of hard work cut out for me this year. :)

Only 0.05 off your target.
So many people on BoS got 99.95. Considering that only ~40 guys get 99.95 in the state, a lot of you must congregate here :)

Whoa - a UAI of 100 obviously needs around 96-97 in every subject.

You must've come very close to coming in the top 20 in Physics, since first got 98.

I'm sorry but you clearly didn't get 97 in Physics, since everyone who got 97 or over was on the Top Achievers List, and that is a fact.
