Being Asian sucks.

With a UAI of at least 50, can go to college and just gain a Diploma which is basically equivalent to first year of Uni. Any less and I'd probably have to kill myself for being outside the top 50% of the state...

My strain on the economy for the rest of my days repays the government for their Piece of shit higher education admission system.

If i dont get 90+ (sort of looking likely..) im planning on taking a gap year, during which i'll do 3 units of HSC mathematics, sit the assessments and do the exam at the end of the year. That way, it'll still be a pretty relaxing year, without being a total waste, and it'll boost my UAI :D :D

its a fun plan :D

Work for 2 years until I'm 21 and then enroll in university, although i'm basically considering this even if i do get the marks.

99.55 = USYD BSci/Laws
95 = UNSW BSci/Laws
90.1 = UoW BSci/Laws (which wouldn't be bad, my friends moving from Canada are moving here and apparently they weren't joking when they said "Come to Wollongong and we can live together!").
88ish = UNcle BSci/Laws.

Anything below I'll probably have a breakdown tbh. Then start a science degree and transfer to Science/Law after a year.

We can always change our preferences to adjust it to our UAI when we receive it in December.

This is my plan, although my preferences range from 92 cutoff (my second preference) all the way down to 55 (this is my sixth preference).

There are other unis with lower UAI cut-offs. Check out your UAC Guide.

Getting a tattooing apprenticeship is actually really difficult :(
