Ok i think SAM is totally wacked.

These are my results:

English (adv) - 87
Ancient History - 93
Chemistry - 83
Maths (ext 1) - 90
Maths (ext 2) - 81

I only have two subjects in the 90s and the rest in the 80s (even low 80s) and SAM predicted a UAI of 97.45!

Not sure if i plugged some mark in wrong or something. There is something definately wrong with that UAI. I'm seeing people get really high marks and are aiming for a UAI of 98.

Someone please try it out. This is definately wrong.

nahh, i think SAm needs to be modified this year, the thing with 01/02/03 doesnt add up with 04, it should get harder to get a good uai each year :(

Sam gave me 98.15, another modeller gave me 97.3 :( which means i didnt make my cut off

It doesn't - and can't - predict anything.

You were way off when you assumed your 2003 UAI would be the same as your 2004 UAI.

We certainly never said it would be the same.

i maintain that i should have gotten the higher UAI :p infact, the first year's UAI it gave me was the best, so i'll that one thanks :) *holds out hands*

and so sorry i said predicted instead of indicated or whatever it is that SAM is meant to do :p hmph! and i didn't assume that stuff! i just thought the UAI's wouldn't change so dramatically between each year. i'm not blaming SAM, but the BOS so :p again!

anyways, ignore me cause i make no sense ... XD
