    Has anyone received EAS points for Macq/UNSW yet?

    Re: Has anyone received EAS points for Macq yet? I'm pretty sure UNSW doesn't release whether or not they give you EAS points, coz they're assholes, and you SHOULD have Macquarie EAS right now, I remember when signing out of school in 2006 we were discussing getting Macquarie/UTS EAS because...

    cutoff for law

    Okay, I fetched the Course Transfer sheet, and here it goes: If you're NOT in a bachelor of law, the requirements are: *Completion of law113/law114 (with a P required, not CP) and law103/law104 (P required, not CP) *18 credit points with a GPA of 2.0 *Be eligible to transfer to the non-Law...

    exam conditions

    I'm an idiot, maths is ICS, not EFS... just used to thinking EFS coz all my other subs are in the EFS department. but my point about supplementary exams stands lol

    exam conditions

    It's true, they ARE harder. I had to do the supplementary paper for maths, and it was a fair bit harder than the original one. I looked at the original and it was almost directly out of the tutorials, whereas they had some legitimately obscure questions for the supplementary one. Having a...

    Question re: Law at Macquarie

    I agree with the great internal transfer policies lol Macquarie makes it VERY easy. :D Our first year subjects are very universal and make sure that if you transfer you won't be too far behind. If you get 96.6, then you are very likely to get into Applied Finance/Law. If you just miss out...

    Scaling process

    Subjects are scaled based on the average performance of the candidature across their HSC courses. The reason maths, physics etc tend to scale high, is because the students perform well across all their courses. That's why many languages have such volatile scaling. As an example, in 2002 the...

    Is anyone suffering from sleep depravation?

    lmao wow, I sleep about 4 hours on weekdays right now, just because if I go bed before 2am or something, I won't sleep the whole night. It explains why I look 21 when I'm 17 lol (as people tell me)

    Ideal marks for Maths...?

    lol.. our prelim for 3u was HARD... basically all of us failed so it's relative to your school to be honest, you should talk to your teachers regarding how good you're going.

    raw marks

    Do you want the raw marks or the aligned marks that you need to get in the exams? If you want aligned marks.. just plug in values into SAM and see what you get. If you want the raw marks, things get a bit more complicated. In the Technical Arcana part of this website, theres a link that has...

    EAS acceptance letters

    Yeah I think so, because I know some people who got accepted because they went to a disadvantaged school, whereas I got a 90's UAI and I didn't get accepted... To me it can seem sort of like a lottery for stupidity at times, like no doubt there are people with lower UAIs who underachieve because...

    ENGLISH is a joke subject

    I heard that english was made compulsory for the scaling system, where they needed one common subject to scale against, and that since people had an inept knowledge of english, they decided to make english that common subject.

    EAS acceptance letters

    That's full slack, don't be sorry for complaining because those guys are being cunts... I agree with what you're saying, because there are people at my school getting points just because they go to a "disadvantaged" school and got a low UAI which was apparently because of their school, you...
