Don't you think it will be quite awkward? I tried asking him/her but... you know.me121 said:It doesn't matter what ranks you have or what your school was ranked last year. Because quality of candidature at your school most probably changes. Best to ask your teacher what band you will probably get, and from there use SAM.
Mechatronics (space) is 98.8 @ Usyd but will increase to probably 99.JJmn said:Yea the teacher doesn't tell us either...
I need to know roughly what UAI I'm looking at so I can apply for Mechatronics or something else if I can't get that UAI.
Can someone actullay predict a UAI just by rankings? What if that person messes up in the HSC exams majorly or goes incredibly well.. doesn't that count for more than rankings?JJmn said:I need it for Engineering Mechatronics, so here are my ranks...
Eng Adv: 10+ / 150+
Biology: 1/40+
Economics: 1/50
Maths: 4/70+
Maths 3U: 2-3/40+
Physics: 3/50+
School is ranked top 50 I think.
Thanks for your help.
It's possible. But estimation is only an estimation. It is likely to be different to the actual number.louise08 said:Can someone actullay predict a UAI just by rankings? What if that person messes up in the HSC exams majorly or goes incredibly well.. doesn't that count for more than rankings?
+sorry for changing the topic of your thread!
oh okayy thanks!lyounamu said:It's possible. But estimation is only an estimation. It is likely to be different to the actual number.
And we do not take in the HSC exam into account and that's the downside of this. We just assume that they perform equally in both.
Some people seem to get pleasure out of getting their UAI estimated because they are either unsure, afraid, curious and etc.
well, i don't know about your teachers. but all my teachers were quite happy to give me, and others who asked a rough HSC mark estimate. (well.. they actually were more like "probably somewhere between band 5 and 6", etc.). of course.. they gave us the usual ladada about that not being definite and we can improve, but they are usually quite open about telling us how they will think we will go.lyounamu said:Don't you think it will be quite awkward?

Shes looking at Engineering Mechatronics @ USyd or UNSW I assume, which is indeed in the mid-high 90s.cheney31 said:hang on.. isnt engineering's cut off is like 88 in unsw? what uni r u talking about?
