first post, hey guys new to this thing. but im in a bit of a dilemna.
finished year 12 in 2007, devastating uai for personal reasons.

went on with an electrical apprenticeship up until now, not for me so trying to get into uni. ive looked at alot of different pathways. uai= 33 and i want to get into science(biotechnology)

ive applied already through uac with 18 months work experience in the electrical industry,
uws college diploma,
uts insearch,
and the stat (not to sure bout how thats going to go)

just in your opinion what are my chances? and what are my other options without wasting another year.
thanks guys!

My friend's sister didn't go on to Year 11 and 12 and went to TAFE. After finishing her HSC there she then went to UWS studying journalism or something along those lines and then got transferred to USYD. She has now graduated so from that I'm guessing you have to take the HSC again. I'm not sure though so don't take my word. Good luck by the way. Don't give up!

I think UWS will accept you, say 75% chance. However, I'm not sure about other programs, but UWS science/engineering programs have a 100% transfer rate with UTS, as they have the same lecturers or something to that effect.

I don’t have a UAI (moved between a few different countries so didn’t complete Year 11 and 12 in the one place).

All I did was sit the STAT test last year, I got straight into my first preference at ANU.

There are always options.

There is still hope bro.

thanks guys, my aim is to get into science at UTS, but if i have to do a year at UWS theres no drama.
Whenever i call UTS and UWS(especially) there just so helpful with giving me options and letting me know the best ways to go.

i sit the stat next saturday at jamison high so we will see how everything goes. thanks for your comments guys, made me feel much better
