Likelihood of... (1 Viewer)

Before receiving my HSC results yesterday I thought I would do very averagely. I always thought I would do average i.e. 75-84 UAI which led me to consider fairly low UAI courses and neglect anything above 90. After receiving my results yesterday morning, I was absolutely stoked and started looking at 90+ courses. I took a liking to physiotherapy at USYD and possibly commerce at USYD. They both had a cut-off of 96.25 and 94.3 respectively which is just above what I got. The calculators slightly overestimated my UAI, predicting 94.55 and 94.05. My actual UAI was 93.30.

My question is, what is the likelihood of me getting into either course? Is there a chance of flexibility on behalf of USYD or maybe the cut-off will be lowered? Does anyone know anyone that got in with lower UAIs or anything?

Any help will be appreciated.

Lots of courses let people in with UAIs below the cutoffs, and its really hard to tell what the cutoffs are going to be, so you have a chance

Could EAS bonus points for a disadvantaged school help in getting me either spot?

Yes. So try to change your preferences and see what happens.
