Oh good luck! hehe you better get good sleep then

Make sure you get there early if you want to sit down for a while before the exam...the line to get in is absolutely insane.

I have heard people say, though, that they got there early, sat down and nearly fell asleep while waiting for everyone else to sign in. I guess it's up to you to decide what would suit you better.

Damm Skywalker, some great marks you got there. So how many people actually sit this UMAT exam?

Yes, get up early and get to the testing centre early and be prepared to stand (or sit) in line for quite some time. While ur waiting, dont worry about the exam too much, but make sure u focus ur mind on the task ahead.
And, oh yeah, dress in layers, and drink sufficient amount of fluids (i.e water) and empty ur bladder before the exam starts!

If you have a BoS shirt...wear it!

I haven't got mine yet, but I haven't checked the mail either. Anyway, I'm not stressed since I've done this all before... just relax.

What he said... the lines are unbelievably long... and you have to get processed and stuff... you're listed alphabetically... and don't stress too much cos it won't get you anywhere

Well, I checked the mail and got my ticket. Sorry guys, I'm in at 1400!

Anyone going to be there with me?

 

[inasero]

[AK Gumbi]

[inasero]

[Lexicographer]

Mines at Glebe at 2pm too. Lexi, aren't you like at uni now so why are you doing the UMAT. Correct me if I'm wrong. BTW, don't the times discrepencies discredits the 8am people? Did i mention how i'm so happy i got 2pm, dont have to wake up at 6 when my eye's half open

 

[Lexicographer]

You're absolutely right, I'm a BSc@UTS kid. I'm doing the UMAT again because my marks last year were appalling but everything else was quite promising, so I'm hoping with a lot more work this year I'll get in second time around.

Remember, the minimum academic level of UMAT candidates is current year 12 student, there's no apparent ceiling. :uhhuh:

If I got 0800 again this year I would have been leaving at 0600...but strangely I wasn't too fussed about it at all this time around. I was actually surprised to get the later session, but I'm slightly annoyed since now I can't go anywhere afterwards.
