hey im just asking coz i have confused feelings at the moment about my UAI

last year i got 41.05 this year i got 63.7

which is around what UAI i thought i would get after seeing my results
( Sen Sci- 79 Std Eng- 69 Geo-78
Gen Math- 76 Mod Hist-77)

but after seeing the results of some mates who had the "harder" subjects with lower marks (low 70's high 60's) but still had higher UAI's i must admit i am slightly disapointed in the system


maybe i was just hoping for a better mark even i predict this mark for myself

For those marks, I would have predicted Low 60s, just under Mid 60s (had you asked yesterday).

You have an aggregate of about 270/500.

Because it's calculated mathematically.

All courses are simultaneously balanced at exactly the same time (using a matrix) - the resulting scaled means constitute a unique solution.

There's no picking and choosing...
