yes. yes. yes. yes. yes. yes.

depending on what you consider to be very good, i can think of someone who got over 95 without science or ancient or sdd. geo, eco, modern, eng ad, mathematics and legal.

No.

You need to get the fucking marks.
Are you sure? I was under the impression you got given UAI based on your subjects and I should worry about scaling and subject choice instead of just working hard. :confused:

Scaling has an affect, but if you get enough marks, it doesn't matter.
I guess I didn't make my sarcasm obvious enough. >_>

although you can definately get a uai of over 90 without science-- general maths and hospitality will pull you down big time unless you do VERY well in them...

I've forgotten how it works since its been about 2 years since I had to select my subjects, but.. hospitality is classified as a b level subject or something? I don't know what it means... but I know its bad :p. Anyway, me and a friend did mostly humanities, no maths and biology and got over 95... so its definately possible.
