Hi,

Well I know for insearch there is a minimum UAI you need to get which is 50, which you do not have.

1. You find out when enrollment is and go to that TAFE and enroll. You can repeat your original subjects IF it is provided. Eg. I couldn't do English Ext because TAFE did not have it.

2. TAFE is like school but the teachers don't really give and you get the same stuff in school just faster. Say you enroll into English in February, you will do year 11 English in say one term and you will do HSC English till your HSC exams. That goes for every other subject you decide to take.

3. TAFE is okay, if you mean Foundation as in INSEARCH etc, then the UAI minimum is 50 and you UAI is under it.

1. u should redo what ever subjects u done shit in. (by the looks of your UAI all of them)

2. whatever suject u repeat the latest attempt will over-ride your 07 attempt. if u say go 80/100 in english, and u dont want to repeat that then the 80/100 in07 will still count.

e.g if you got 60/100 in maths and you repeated it in 08 then the 08 score in maths WILL count for your UAI, even if in 08 you get 50/100. whether this may be better or worse than your 07 maths score, thats up to how hard u work.

i cant see how if u repeat u can get much worse than 45

i would say do tafe, work your ass off.

insearch is expensive?
