i got an interview in october or wen ever the 1st round ones were. my umat was 173 n UAI prediction was 96-98. keep in mind tho that they also consider ure RRMA for interview and final selection

 

[Vampire]

cool someone actually replied, i got a late round interview, my umat was shocking 150 something, but my uai was 99.2

btw Zali, I noticed you were from coffs, know of anyone else around there who applied and their marks?

 

[Zali]

[Vampire]

where are u from >monkey<, it's quite possible they made a clerical error...

and btw do u mean the rural bonding or the actual rural scheme?

 

[>monkey<]

i live in toongabbie, its not rural, its near blacktown/seven hills...i think i ment rural bonding, im not quite sure wat the rural scheme is?

like a quota for aboriginal students

they have a small quota for rural students so that they will DEFINITELY get a certain number of rural kids (ie. they're not in competition with the other mainstream students).

i think that's what it is

 

[Vampire]

bob.j is right

In one of the UNSW selection policies that I read, 25% of students have to be from rural areas.

There's 146 unbonded places, so 25% is roughly a quarter of that.

You've got a good chance if you're rural then.
