So I just checked UNSW Commerce/Science on UAC and the UNSW site and supposedly it's now 95.65. When I put in my preferences I swear it was 90.80. Really. The same for Macquarie, the Psych Hon Degree has changed from 90.80 to 93. something. Is this because of the popularity in preferences or so...
I got an email saying I was qualified for their Broadway Scheme. I checked the page for it on their site and they said most of the applicants receive the full 5 points? That seems generous. Although they could just be lying haha.
Ranks .............................................. ~Assessment Mark .........................Probable Raw Exam Mark
Ancient History ................11/34...................80% .................................... ~90%
Chemistry ........................19/31.................... 65%...
The maximum is 5 actually. But, yeah that is for severe disadvantages. I've gotten the letter from UAC saying they've received it but nothing from Uni's.
Yeah I did the postmordernist/structuralist arguments of Jenkins and White vs. Evans, Thucydies, Windshuttle - chucked in some Carr, Becker and Hobsbawn somewhere. It was a bit of a mess, literally. Arrows and asterisks' all over the place. Got some Tuchman for the story part.
I started vomiting in my chemistry exam, bout an hour into it. Probs completed like a third of the paper. A few hours before I just waved my stomach pains off as nerves. Nope, spewed all over my paper. Oh, and then I went to the toilet about 4 times due to irritable bowl. Ironic given my forum...
Yeah I don't know, I might just do a pure psych degree at Maq, or UNSW or if I'm lucky USYD. Safer job/income if you have a private practice, as you'd probably see MORE people in an economic down turn. :haha:
Meh, I'll see what my ATAR is and go from there.
This thread makes me feel better. There are people even worse than me.
Ahh well, I spent almost all day today doing History Extension. So now I actually have an idea about the areas of debate in my case study. :sun:
90% for essay, 70% for logbook. Only because I could not be fucked doing my logbook properly and wrote pretty much all of it the night before. So all up 85%, rank 4/13, so pretty happy.
Haha, at least that's a bit better than me. I don't even know my area's of debate. Something about the causes of their decline apart from Cortez killing people. Like how the Aztecs taxed the surround tribes, the viruses the Spanish brought, etc. That's pretty much the extent of my knowledge...
Incredibly boring lol. I really really hope its question on how history is constructed by historians. Probably going to do 5-6 historians in depth.
And pretty much fucked for case study. Spain and decline of the Aztecs, I swear we're the only school who does it.
Hopefully low 50's....
17+ for Texts in Time, pretty easy
17+ for Conflicting Perspectives, question matched my notes
16+ for Speeches, didn't really study as I thought it was "so easy"
