UOW offers a "bonus point" scheme if you attended a school relatively near the uni for your HSC, and UWS offers the RET scheme which is *sort* of like what you are aking about - though you might be a bit late to apply for it.
wrong_turn
the chosen one
you can also get a principal's reference to get into scu as well.

bundy for me
yeah and the majority of people that apply with principals rec to UNE get innatstar said:
yeah theres the RET test for UWS, its about $120 to sit it, and if this mark is higher than ur UAI, you can use this instead
it was relatively pointless for me, because the course i wanted to do at UWS was cancelled, and my UAI was higher than my RET score
theres more conditions but i cant remember what they are

The University of Sydney offers a flexible entry scheme, saying this about it:
"This scheme is intended for current HSC applicants whose UAI may fall up to five points below the normal cut-off for entry into certain courses. Applicants who are approved for admission under this scheme must have demonstrated their aptitude for the course of their choice.
"Those faculties which offer admission into their courses under this scheme prescribe certain ways in which applicants can demonstrate this aptitude, such as performance in relevant HSC subjects, participation in Science Olympiads, or through a written submission.
"The criteria for consideration vary between faculties and courses, and not all courses offer flexible entry. UAC applicants may also be required to make an additional application direct to the faculty to be considered for certain courses, but may be considered automatically for other courses."
Sydney Uni also offers special admissions and concessional admissions for other groups of people, namely:
* Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islanders
* Elite athletes who have had to miss school for training
* multicultural entry scheme (for some health sciences degrees)
(Click links for relevant official info.)
There are some others for rural people.

MQ has something where you submit something about yourself and references and you can get 5 extra points to get in there (I think you need to be engaged in aspects of school life though like leadership)... though I did not hear about it until it was announced at school at 4 girls in my grade got the extra points. You would have to talk to your careers advisor though.. and I'm sure the submission date would be coming up quite soon.

EAS all da way.
Then use regional thingy.
then use principal's recommendation
then use flexible entry scheme (most unis have this)
i think u can probably shave 10 uai points if u use them all at the same time. i hope they allow u to use multiple schemes at the same time...LoLz.
