[Rhanoct]

mum: lower than your estimate, told you they arent accurate
me: ok
mum: mmhm
me: bye

other 'family' like aunties etc. were pretty thrilled though

 

[xJennax]

My dad was telling me I did well and got what I needed and "congrats", ect and I think my mum said I did well. I didn't even get that a good a UAI lol...

 

[elli-may]

what if your uni gives bonus points? mine gives me an extra 6... when people ask me, can i tell them 82.7 at UOW? or should i give the raw mark?

Bonus points are not UAI points and so they do not increase it. They change your selection rank at a particular university.

 

[digimonstudent]

i wont get my uai until 2010 but this is my prediction of what happens if i dont get 99+:

me:i got 98.95
mom: U DUFFER U'LL NEVER GET INTO A GOOD UNI WITH THAT LOW MARK!
me: but mom my school is ranked 580 n every1 else got below 80.
mom: I DONT CARE WHAT THOSE DUFFER KIDS GOT! NOW U WILL HAVE TO REPEAT YEAR 12 N THIS TIME GET THE RIGHT UAI!
me: but mom thats embaressing......
mom: DONT U ARGUE WITH ME! (takes out a cane n starts hitting me with it)

 

[candygore]

UAI:86.80

mum: well.. a lot people did well this year didn't they? (she is talking about those who got over 90)

mum's not talking to me because I didn't get 90+.

dont worry lol im joking. though since my school is ranked so low my parents do want me to score high n if i dont then a similar scenario will prob occur.

 

[wixxy2348]

Dad: Wow that's wonderful, all my staff are pleased with your marks.
Mum: WELL DONE I AM SO PROUD YOU ARE THE MOST WONDERFUL PERSON, OMG, LETS GO OUT FOR DINNER, WAIT, LET ME EMAIL ALL MY FRIENDS FIRST AND TELL THE WOMAN WHO LIVES 6 DOORS DOWN WHO CALLED WHEN SHE SAW YOUR NAME IN THE PAPER, OMG, UNI, *HYPERVENTILATION*
I was like lol, overreaction to a not-so-great UAI.

 

[Darrow]

I can relate Wixxy
I got a 92.80 (I was going for 95.. maths and bio failed along the way)
My parents were ecstatic, I was slightly disappointed,
But hey, I got into International Science last week
UoW for the win
