But you produce people for the Conservatorium dont you ?

So the UAI probably doesnt matter as long as you can play well.

On the otherhand, I know someone who is at the Con.
But she went to PLC and got 100 for her UAI.
Topped the state in Music and Envirnomental Science.
She seems to spend a lot of time in England on various music scholarships.
out of our class *only 1 class for year 12* Im the only one going to the cON, and no aim doesnt Usually send people to the Con, Its one of the worst Music Schools to go to, the music is seriously crap there, the Music 1 class (12 people) Didnt get above 60 In Music 1 exam *(except for one)
and LoL ......... most want to go to Uni, but not music courses

100 at Radford College

Hey all - Radford is in the ACT so our scaling is based on the AST (A set of short response, short answer and essay tests) rather than the HSC - and here are the school's UAI results... We were top ranked school in ACT (along with CCEGGS). We had 152 students eligible for a UAI

btw, its a private non-selective school.

Radford goes from yrs 5-12, (7-12 when our grade started in 1999) so most of us have known each other since year 7

Top UAI: 100.00
Median UAI: 89.95

Above 99: 9% (13 people)
Above 95: 30% (46 people)
Above 90: 50% (76 people)


I got 99.2 and came 11th in the grade, so yeh, you get the idea of how well we did - i.e how much our AST results pushed our scores up.

yes yr 11 results count

Yeh, in ACT we have assessment throughout the year so for example a chemistry course might be made up of following assessment

mid sem test 20%
prac report 10%
Assignment 15%
Assignment 25%
Exam 30%

also most of us do 5 'T' courses of which 3.6 of our best 3.2 semesters are counted - and you can do double majors in english, maths etc. Like I did a double major in English so the score I got from that counted as 2 of my 3.6 subjects.

Its a bit confusing sometimes, but we don't get all stressed out by the (non-existent) HSC and if you have a bad day on an exam or whatever then the rest of your life isn't stuffed over. Also, maths and english don't have to count so people who are really good at science/maths but a bit dodgy at English will still do well and vice-versa. The main setback of the system is that how your school performs in the AST (Scaling Test) will have a significant effect on UAIs, but with us that worked in our favour. - They do the scaling test because although assessment is moderated to make sure the assessment is fairer between schools, this only happens after marks are distributed so will affect the next year's senior classes. The scaling test makes sure that if, for example one school is marking essays way too easy and another way too hard, then the results of the scaling test should be spread in such a way that the "smarter" school gets better results and thus their raw marks will be scaled higher.

It is for this reason alone, that we called our Director of Studies a demigod.

Anyways. Uni starts in a month's time and then nobody cares about UAIs! So hope everyone got a good offer!
