"Sweatheart" No. It's actually illegal. Look it up.
Did the 98.5 girl who repeat for medicine get in? Or is this year her second go? It's not unheard of, there was one girl in my year who repeated nearly everything except the courses she came top 5 in the state for because she didn't get into med. She still didn't get into med the second time and ended up doing dentistry, from what I heard.

I was wrong because it was a question to do with maths, and maths is the bane of my existence. I'm 100% sure of this. Parents only have the responsibility of bearing their children to the age of 18. Past this, and parents may decide to chuck their kids out of the house.tommykins said:

My parents will be disappointed but they won't kick me out cos.... I am their daughter.
zz i heard this story in physics from my teacher or maybe similar . apparently if i did remember correctly she yes did repeat and yes she did get the uai she needed to get into medicine that year. but heres what i also remembered not sure but after repeating she decided that medicine wasnt for her and did something that didnt require like 98+ uai....lala2 said:
zzz flame me lol..
you know what sucks? well not really but parents having that ultra-unrealistic expectation about university guranteed a SUCCESSFUL life and if you dont get into uni via the HSC your a doomed failure... lol where you yourself know its not and there are alternate pathways to get in. mmm dissappointment from your parents hurt though

hey dose it really matter who is the top ranked school? no it dose`nt as long as you achieve your goal or get close to it who cares, all schools teach the same thing in different ways. and so what if you dont make it there are so many other different opportunities. if you dont get your mark its not going to be the end of the world, there is still tafe, traineeships etc and if u dont get into uni u can always go through tafe. so get over it and think about future options there are so many.
ps: i dont think parents should kick their children out of home because they dint get the uai that it just sad and plan wrong

Hey I'll repeat yr 12 if I don't get into med. but i probably won't do the HSC some easier system perhaps.poisonives said:
why not? not all people do med because they think its the most 1337 and $$$ farm out there, some people really want to get into med for legit reasons; i.e. they like the challenges, the human interaction, the opportunity to study the human body. they can liken it to doing a year of a uni course they have no interest in to get a good GPA, then reapply for med - either way, for them its a year..poisonives said:
I personally would consider repeating year 12 since I skipped year 1 (and thus have an extra year up my sleeve) if I couldn't get into what I wanted (i.e. med). I know this year I've been unbelievably lax, could have gone for the 99.5+ but halfway through Year 12 thought "whats the point".
about this business of you can get 100 UAI if you go to a crap school, what if theoretically you got first in all your subjects, and the guy who came second was like two marks off you. then that same guy who came second got 70s come HSC and that was the second highest mark (your mark being the highest). I know moderating is more complicated than just 1st place gets 1st placed external mark in school..
