    The Anime Thread

    I highly recommend getting an ad blocker called uBlock Origin if you use Chrome on your laptop to help prevent getting virus/malware if you want to watch anime on kissanime or in general really. The only issue is that kissanime tries to force ads so you have to wait 30 seconds for it to stop...

    I'll be doing electrical engineering. Hopefully we can all make friends during orientation or something.

    UTS Chatter Thread

    Good to see that this thread isn't completely dead haha. Kinda annoyed with some of my classes only having sessions in the afternoon since I'm more of a morning person rip. Was hoping I could cram everything in the morning.

    About scholarship offers

    Just curious if anyone knows when does UTS send out offers for "Vice-Chancellor’s Outstanding Achievement Scholarship" or "Engineering & Information Technology Dean’s Scholarship". Would it be before or after the 21st?

    ATAR Lower than Calculators?

    Mine was lower by 1 mark (pretty small gap) so for me it was fairly accurate. I can't expect it to be 100% accurate.

    96.40 To be honest I'm still in disbelief that I manage to achieve my initial goal way back when I started year 11. As time progressed the reality of getting 95+ seemed like only a dream, so I kept lowering and lowering my expectations. I'm really glad all the work I put in was not for naught...

    2017 ATAR Calculator Thread

    All 3 atar calculators I've used estimated between 97.10 - 97.50 which is a huge surprise for me. Its hard for me to imagine I'd get that tomorrow since I only got 2 B6/E4's and I messed up 4U. Tbh I was expecting 93-94 with the marks I got (Since japanese and english standard scale pretty bad)...

    Biology: 94 English Standard: 88 Japanese beginners: 89 3U Maths: 96 4U Maths: 83 I am happy overall but it really bothers me I just missed out getting a B6 for Japanese just by 1 mark. Even though I knew i wouldn't I was kinda hoping I would get a B6 for it. I'm also kinda disappointed with...

    2017 HSC Marks Prediction Thread

    Re: 2017 HSC Marks Thread English Standard: 85 3U Maths: 92 4U Maths: 87 Biology: 91 Japanese Beginners: 88 This is what I'm expecting but I can't help but feel I'll probably do worse. Regardless I'm still excited to see my results even if I have a bad feeling.

    2017 HSC Marks Prediction Thread

    Re: 2017 HSC Marks Thread Wow its hard to imagine there's only 2 days left till we get our results. This past month and a half for me flew by pretty fast, yet now it feels like an eternity waiting for our results to be released.

    To 2017 graduates

    There are a number of reasons why UTS is my preference even though UNSW is the "go to uni" for engineering. The main reasons why include it being easier to get a scholarship. Since most people would be going to UNSW for engineering, I would have a higher chance of getting a scholarship. The...

    To 2017 graduates

    Electrical engineering @ UTS. Was considering mechanical but I think I'd prefer electrical. Biomedical was also another option I was considering, but looking online, it seems there are next to no jobs in that field. I'm fairly confident that I can get in since last year's cut off is relatively...

    *When you did the modulus instead of the argument. Rip free marks.

    What is your favourite anime and Manga?

    Hands down my most favourite anime would be Jojo's bizzare adventure. It's surprisingly unique and fresh for a shounen manga despite being old. (Started in 1987). Besides Jojo; I also really like: Hunter X Hunter Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood Code Geass Parastye Future Diary Attack on...

    Bio exam thoughts

    Sorry for scaring you. Looking at the raw marks from previous years, it's kinda hard to tell what the band 5 cut off will be. But low 70's should be enough for a band 5.

    Bio exam thoughts

    Oh I just realised he said band 5, I thought he said band 6 whoops.
  19. ShootingDuck

    Bio exam thoughts

    Probably 83-85 in my opinion since the general consensus was this year was easier. Plus in general the band 6 cut off has been getting higher each year.
