Macq GPA is for Internal Transfers and for Honours, only. Done.

yeah it is for the purpose of internal transfers and honours. But still if you have HD and D in Macquarie you still aim for the high because 90 and 76, in your prospective employers' eyes, 90 is much better even though they carry same GPA.
