I am currently flexirenting my laptop, with the contract about to expire. My parents have offered to flexirent a new laptop. However their condition is that it is priced between 2000-3000, as you get some free stuff they want, and has to be from Harvey Norman. I am going to uni next year whilst...

How did you handle first year, specifically the math, as I read somewhere that you only did 2u?

Academic achievement award. Each school gets to nominate one student to recieve it. It also gives you $4000 and 5 bonus points.

If you got an AAA you get a guarnteed place in one of them, providing you live outside of sydney, or western sydney. I had my interview 1.5 months ago yet haven't got an offer yet. If you live in Sydney, you have a very very small probability of getting in.

Check my past paper collection in the 2010 thread, it had the 2009 CSSA and Independent physics + chemistry.

If you do well i.e. band 4+ in subjects relevant to the degree you intend to do, you get additional points. UNSW HSC Plus 2010

If you change your mind, change your preferences after the main round. Then hope there are vacancies in the course for the late rounds. You should accept your first offer no matter what. Then if you get another offer in the late round, you choose to accept the new one, or reject it.

Go west.

Although not a merit, I got a letter yesterday offering me a rural leadership scholarship worth the same as a merit. Only ended up with 97, so I guess alot of the smart rural kids didn't apply.

You do know that if you do not get your first preference - law in the first round, they then give you your second preference ( as long as your ATAR is high enough). You do not have to wait until the second round. So just put commerce as your second preference for the main round.

Got a rural leadership scholarship today - 6k per annum for up to four years.

EAS = ACCESS at UNSW, just like EAS = broadyway at USYD. Don't/didn't you go to a relatively decent school, i.e. ranked quite highly? It seems quite weird that a decently ranked school in Sydney would be a priority school, let alone a 4-pointer. I was under the impression that only extremely...

I am attempting to. It was one of the things requested in my FOI request.

Do you happen to know roughly when scholarships winners are announced.

Hsc plus can be up to 5. AAA is 5. EAS is up to 5 I think, although this is extremely hard to get. It is possible to have a maximum of 10 from these three things at UNSW.

Average mark: 90.42 ATAR: 97.00

Log on to UAC, and check the tab 'correspondence from UAC'. There should be a pdf file in there telling you what universities you are elgible to recieve EAS points from.

No. The only listed options were: ANU special adult entry scheme ANU elite athlete SCU STAR entry scheme UC elite athlete scheme UNE pathyway enabling program I remember when I did this that it seemed dodgy. There are so many other programs/early entries/alternative pathways not on this list.

There is a certain amount of units you need in a topic to be qualified in with the Dip Ed. I doubt the number of units left for electives would meet this requirement. Maybe overload/stay longer and do 3 majors?

If you are ranked first: Top exam mark = your assessment mark. They do this to try to even out the assessment marks from different schools. Some schools have hard assessments, some have easy assessments. This is the way the Board attempts to account for that. If you are curious, I recommend you...
