I do no maths & science, however am doing well in my 11 units of:

English Advanced
EE1
SOR1
Modern History
History Extension
Legal Studies
Business Studies

am I doomed to low scaling even if I rank first in my school for some of then and have raw marks of 95+?

To both of you, absolutely it is possible. People have had 100UAIs with those kinds of subjects. In fact, 3 of my close friends at school did no maths or science subjects (one did 2U but it didn't count towards his UAI) and they got 95.xx, 96.xx ans 98.xx.

Good to know. I go to partially selective school where pretty much everyone left for the hsc course does extension maths and at least one (mostly all three) sciences, the people who do my subjects though don't do too well in it. anyway thanks guys, I'll try and stay positive :)

what do you have to do to get 100UAI?
i'm pretty sure you can get any uai if you maintain your ranks and get good raw marks, regardless of your subjects

You're not the only one here :lol:

I have a feeling i'll sort of slide off with some of my subjects, but just work hard nevertheless!

No maths or sciences means we just have to work a little harder and hope for the best! ^^

-may-cat- is my hero :D

95.55 UAI without maths or science! Woot! you go girl! :lol:
