I know that the head of senior school at my old high school was the dux of James Ruse. He's white, so that should give an indication of his vintage

Not so much awkward as funny in PDHPE, sex ed component in year 9: Teacher: "Just in case any of you plan on getting up to anything, I am informing you that the legal age of consent is 16" My Friend: "Is that all the time? I heard it was 14 as long as you have a parent or guardian present"

Here is my timetable: The red clash appears to be because some weeks the ENGG1000 lecture goes from 2-4, others it goes from 2-5. My timetable is far from ideal, however I only saw the option to auto timetable. Where is the option to select your class times? EDIT: Found out how to...

Thanks, that sorted it. I was using the code from the handbook for software engineering, which is 3648, rather than the one that lines up with my UAC offer (3645 which is for software or bioinformatics or computer engineering)

Hey all, I am trying to enroll at UNSW, and the first step is to set up your unipass at here. However if I enter my info (UAC number, Postcode, DOB, Program Code) and leave blank the stuff I don't know (part of an either / or, so I leave blank the UNSW student number and department code) I get...

Chem and Music 1, both got 88. Annoyed as I put probably 70% of my overall effort into chem and english advanced. Chem didn't count and English I stuffed the exam (85 exam, 92 assessment). Music I thought would be my highest mark (expecting 94-95) but was a major shock when that returned being...

I'm in the opposite, grateful to those that pulled me up in English after I bombed the exam (not bombed, just mildly stuffed up) Exam mark: 85, Assessment mark 92, overall = 89. If I got 90 then I would have had 10 units over 90, so close. Apart from English, all of my exams were only 1 or 2...

You must be my long lost identical twin. Same Atar, didn't study profusely, disappointed mum and a high performing sister (My sister got 99.8 and 2 state ranks)

Me: I got 98.45 Mum: Ohh, Ohh, that's unfortunate Bloody hell, 3 months ago she said that it wouldn't matter at all what atar I got as long as I got a scholarship into a course I wanted. So I apply for the scholarship, get the interview, get the offer, then get the mark needed (to accept the...

Damn, 98.45 Atar calcs had it pegged at 98.9, hoping to break into the 99's. Oh well

Annoyed as I got 88 for chem, 88 for music and 89 for English advanced (I bombed the exam, 85 for exam, 92 for assessment). I have 8 units in band 6, just needed that single English mark to get on the Premiers list. Oh well.

Great work, you must be stoked. My sister had a scenario, expecting about 85 then got 95, and she was really excited by the result, so it must feel great knowing that it all paid off.

Got these Course - Exam/Assessment - Overall Chem - 87/88 - 88 Music 1 - 87/88 - 88 English Adv - 85/92 - 89 Economics - 90/89 - 90 Maths Ext 2 - 92/90 - 91 Bit dissapointing, but gets me into the course I want. Always dissed the half exam / half assessment scheme, but saved my ass for...

ah ok, my bad, I thought they were all the same. Good luck with getting the marks, you seem to be doing high-scaling subjects (same as me except I did economics and music instead of your IPT) so hopefully that will boost you past 96

No, I went for engineering and it was 96 for them as well

You do realise that you need 96 to get the scholarship?

Yay, got a conditional for software and shortlisted for electrical and compsci

I'll do well, but given how poorly it scales (music 1) compared to the rest of my subjects, I would have to do extremely well for it to count.

Thanks for those estimates, pretty much confirmed what I was thinking of low 99. I need around 96 for engineering / commerce at UNSW so all I really need the atar for is a scholarship and bragging rights (which are more for my parents sake than mine). But given that I won't get 99.9 and get...

Hey, I'm just wondering what you guys think my atar will turn out to be, I have an idea but would like to see if it is similar to what others think. Here are my ranks: Music 1: 1/8 (I don't think this one will count though) Economics: 4/54 Maths 4U: 6/22 Chemistry: 1/21 English: 15/105 Last...
