while i was there, i read the following msg under my courses :


YOU WILL NOT meet the requirements for the HSC this year because of the following (messages below beginning with the word "Warning" require confirmation from your principal):
Co-requiste course missing for Mathematics Extension 1



i think i am a bit screwed...anyone got any ideas???

 

[...]

[Newbie]

[Minai]

Mm..yes
Did u accelerate 2U maths or anything?
Yes it seems that you arent 'officially' doing Mathematics, only Mathematics Extension 1
See your year advisor or principal to contact BOS immediately

I accelerated in Maths last year, and being asian, in a predominantly asian school, people get names mixed up.

For example, surnames can be mixed up, and they get the first/middle names in the wrong order, which only complicates matters.

What happened with me was, the name printed on my Year 11 was:

MIDDLE, FIRST, SURNAME

while for my HSC year, I removed my "middle name" (which the school's computer reported as my "first/given" names, so that stuffed it up.

Therefore, in Year 12, my report said:

FIRST, SURNAME
completely forgetting the "middle name" (which is my first name, LOL! Damn data-entry/school secretaries and incorrectly entering names, surnames, etc).

So anyway, the school/Board of Studies NSW gave me a completely new Student Number, (luckily I remembered my old one), and when the documents came out, it had said that I hadn't even completed Year 11 - Preliminary!

I finally got it fixed, and I'm using my "old" Student Number now, so all is well.

I hope I haven't confused anybody there, it was just a mix up of first, last and middle names. (In a school where a lot of people have similar first names, middle names, or a common surname - the Nguyen's and the Tran's LOL).

hmm...theres only one person in my school that has teh same last name as me....
but she didn't accerlerate or anything...

the only person that accerlerated in my school this yr was this girl who finished 4u last yr...but her last name is like Chau while my is Lo...very hard to get that mix up...

so i am still waiting for my maths teacher's call!!!
i might call my deputy instead.

This is what mine looks like, (with acceleration, 2U Maths HSC, but I did Preliminary 2/3U Maths at the same time) so I don't know what's wrong with your one.

You've got:

2/3U Prelim in Year 11
2/3U HSC in Year 12

I don't see what could go wrong...

On your left, you'll see "Send a Message"

Have you tried that?
It couldn't hurt...

But I do sugest ringing your school, talking to your principal, curriculum co-ordinator or even your Year Co-ordinator if it is possible.

/edit
At the bottom of 2003, I have:

Our records indicate that:
* You have indicated that you wish to receive a UAI from UAC and currently you are eligible.
* You have indicated that you are an Australian Citizen.
* You have indicated that the language spoken in your home is Vietnamese.

Would you be able to post the exact wording/quote from the website? Or did you already do that in the first post? (verbatim).

Aforementioned, I had the "you are not eligble for the HSC blah blah" -- but that was because the school updated my HSC data/numbers to my new student number, when in fact I should be using my "old" student number.... after that was updated (chucking HSC numbers back into the old student number which contained prelim results), everything was fine/OK.

Wow that's weird (sorry to get off topic), but I've never seen that before... I could include my details as well, but I guess it's too late to change that lol... (I just want to have the "born in ____" and "arrived in Oz in _____" parts )

Jesh: That's really weird how you didn't do SDD (according to BOS) and there hasn't been any errors.

Maybe it's just the Students Online database/website itself... being relatively new/full of bugs that need ironing out.

I don't know, I can't make excuses for BOS
