Re: What UAI are you aiming for?

I am aiming for the best UAI I can get, lol. Not really sure at present, but I know I am aiming pretty high.

I'll probably go into a course involving either Law, Economics, Commerce, Literature/Journalism and/or Arts and most likely do a combined degree.

98.4+ !!

i think that would be indicative of my panache for learning, and my ability to attack incongruous situations with versatility and verve... i would be disappointed with <96... maybe sounds a bit ambitious but i work hard, and that should work in equilibrium with the end mark [i hope].

that's as long as tom the myspace guy doesn't suck away all my literary and grammatical skillZ. i think deleting my myspace would be beneficial pro bono. publico.. but then, i would LyK hAv3 n0 fr3nd$.

ohh and courses?? well! as cliche as it may sound- MEDICINE! where? UNSW! but anywhere would make me a happy cappy-- even india, or madagascar would be a fine place to study medicine imo. i mean, a medical degree's a medical degree- eh?? ;)

but if i get shithouse UMAT results, or some other trauma occurs- i'd be just as happy doing : dentistry [even though thy le crappe umat resulte would inhibit this], software[<3], combined law, actuary, physio, optometry, philosophy, journalism, psychology, forensics or i might just become gypsy kinesiologist who constructs makeshift voodoo dolls out of fluorescent wool for a living or take to the stage and become a broadway musical act.

the sky is our limit!!
98.4 sounds like a UAI-cutoff for Veterinary Science at USYD. The last time I checked, our limit was just overcome. It's time to aim higher.

99+ for MBBS at UNSW. My father went to the same university for MBBS, so I'd love to view what he witnessed during his university years.

I don't think you'll be able to achieve that UAI with the subjects you are doing. I'm sorry.
Well my Year 11 H/Y estimated UAI for my Best Ten Units was 99.5, but I'll take that as a grain of salt.

Some people in my school, don't even want to do 4 Unit English/Maths and already getting estimates of 99.9 (But then that the person in particular DUX'd three subjects). So we'll just see in due time.

Re: What UAI are you aiming for?

85+ is my goal. Pick the hard subjects if you do well you succeed. This is how I look at the UAI Scaling. If you do easy subjects General Mathematics,English Standard your UAI gets scaled down even if you get 100 in any of those subjects you might just get 95.
