UAI marks.. (1 Viewer)

[queenie]

for u guys that have finished ur hsc.. is it possible 2 get a UAI of above 99 without acutally getting 10 units abv 90?

 

[jm1234567890]

easily

some examples from friends

2002
chem: 92
phy: 95
4u ma: 95
3u ma: 96

2003
eng adv: 85

UAI 99.25

4unit maths 94
3u 95
physics 95
chem 89
economics 94
english 89

99.5

So the motto is you need 8 units in mid-90's to compensate?

 

[abdooooo!!!]

its easy... an average scale of 89 per subject will do.

so you can get 99 uai with all of your subjects under band 6 if you do subjects with pretty good conversion rate from hsc to scaled marks.

argh 4u maths...no way in hell am i going near THAT

 

[santaslayer]

lolz....but jm1234567890 ur second friend got 89 for chem and eng...isnt that like 90 already anyway?

 

[Ragerunner]

89 is not 90.

But yes it is quite close.

It really depends on the rest of the state, but it seems you would actually need to attain higher marks you get a decent UAI as the years go on.

From what I noticed, in average, if the same HSC marks were used in 2001, 2002, 2003, you'd have a 2 UAI less as the years go up.....that's my weird observation.

So for a UAI of 98 we need the marks of 100 this year? Hmm eventually you will need all 100's to avoid a 30 or under.

no man... you're not considering the 1st law of thermodynamics... energy is conserved!!! thermodynamics also applies to hsc so the hsc mark or rather uai cannot keep on getting higher like that by creating marks out of nothing.

Eventually the Board will add band 7s... but would that mean awarding marks between 100 and 110?

Weird.

 

[Xayma]

LOL laz, imagine when were all grandparents then. "Why back it my day a band 6 was the highest you could get none of this band 45 stuff and not only that we had to walk 15miles to school"

what so you walk 15 miles to school now? hahaha thats far.

but where is this extra marks comming from... are people getting smarter by the year. its beyond the realm of thermodynamics i guess.

 

[Xayma]

No I walk 800m to school but old people always exaggerate. Anyway they stopped following the laws of thermodynamics when the dumbed down the sciences.

lol right thanks guys.. cause theres a friend from sbhs who apparently got over 99 with only 7 units abv 90.. makes sense htough, considerin his subjects were like 4 eng, 4 mat, 2 eco and 2 chem...

 

[santaslayer]

hahaha......duhhhhhh

 

[cro_angel]

yes very possible.. just aim for high 90s in the rest of ur subjects

 

[queenie]

natstar, what subjects was ur friend doing?

 

[sam04u]

lol look in the honour roll (only a few people got 99.1)
