How stressed are you?

I got into UOW for Bach of Arts, not that hard but it means I can chose from many courses after. I would prefer to go into Primary teaching later.

I got into Law/Commerce at University of Notre Dame, but its conditional that I don't drop in performance.

So I'm less stressed, however if in some of my humanities subjects (Economics, Legal, Modern) If they throw a few curveball essays I could be screwed

Still I'm stoked :p Law/Commerce at Sydney, UNSW and UTS is all like 99 or 96 :p

Yeah arts is like... the easiest course to get into at uni and aside from the purpose of transferring it's also the least useful for a career.

I got in for Commerce at UOW, not really stressed at all but still feel some pressure because technically they can withdraw my offer and I have no idea how bad I'd have to do in order for them to do that.

*really* bad.

Like you'd have to get band 2-3s in every subject.

If you do paper 2, probably only a band 5 in your other subjects will net you 70.01 easily. srsly 70 is ridiculously easy to get.

Yea but thats for arts :p The average person could get into arts somewhere without even studying hard
Probably not. The median ATAR for 2012 was 69.55. Most Arts entry cutoffs are at least 70.

I got into commerce / law at UOW.

Although it's nice to know that you've been accepted into uni, I'm still very stressed out.

I just want to get the best atar I can.
