I agree. Give us the thread we made the prediction in. I very much doubt we were off by that much!

I replied to it.

Considering you didn't give us HSC Marks, (Thread made in October the reason being), and you were yet to do all your exams, I said mid 90's which in my opinion is quite close with info you gave - that didn't include exam performance.

Some person could of got 99 in all his school assessments and we say he'd likely get 98+ UAI, however if he screwed the exam he sitll could end up with a UAI of 70. In which case blaming us for being inaccurate when its your own problem for doing bad (not talking about you),

What I'm saying is your exam performance can change a lot of things, we don't know how you do but base our predictions on what is given.

I'm not a prophet.

I'm happy you got 99.10, Congratz

And I'm happy my UAI wasn't as accurate in a positive way.

The lesson: Don't expect (reasonably) accurate predictions when you don't provide sufficient information. :D

Guys!!! i was just being silly!!!! "haha" as in a gleeful delight! sorry i should have conveyed my emotions better but i was in a hurry, all i was trying to convey was 92, 97 whatever is different to 99.1 and that people who get discouraged by predictions can have hope of a better result!
punctuation sucks: i did ext 2 eng poetry with scattered sporadic punc. and got 47/50 so i can't be too wrong!

We haven't been wrong yet. :)

At least, I hope not!

well the disparity between 92 and 99.1 is probably due to a bucnh of sporadic factors
i.e. handing in white canvases for art; the markers finding something clearly insightful (wonders never cease) and doing a 96.

as well as an easy bio paper and fluking it through english
argh the list goes on
anyway, cheers, merry christmas, my flight to canada/europe/finland/thailand leaves in 3 hours!
so long and thanks!
