But then I'm guessing UAC take that into account in awarding the amount of points you get for your mark

Nah, i'm pretty sure that once you meet the cutoff for a band 6, you get a band 6.

so theoretically if all studnets obtained a band6 mark, they'd allr eceive a band 6 (never goin to happen though)

No but I mean your aggregate points out of 500, 50 per unit. Like if the average was 92 course mark, they wouldnt give everyone in 2 unit massive marks compared to say if the average was 34 in extension 1

Prepare for the worst guys. I reckon the 2008 Mathematics paper will definitely be harder this year considering the low quality shown by 2007 paper.

And I am not really enjoying that feeling...

I too wish that I am entirely wrong on this. I hope the 2008 exam is a total joke that I can get good mark. :D

Don't you want a hard test? People who are good at maths should hope for a hard test.
