Yep.
They probably just take as many people as they can so they can reach the limit of domestics and haul in the money paying International students. Who will sometimes fail due to lack of English skill, but are still accepted (for example the bloke in my CSCI103 tute who could only speak Mandorin and German).
Way to go.

My marks in my trial exam last year:aaaman said:
Standard English: 54/100 Exam Rank: 5/63 Cumulative Rank: 21/63
General Maths: 82/100 Exam Rank: 1/51 Cumulative Rank: 1/51
Chemistry: 71/100 Exam Rank: 3/13 Cumulative Rank: 4/13
IPT: 56/100 Exam Rank: 3/21 Cumulative Rank: 3/21
SDD: 54/100 Exam Rank: 4/13 Cumulative Rank: 2/13
I got a conditional offer, the conditions were: Standard English: at least 65/100, General Maths: 85/100, UAI: 75
At the end, I met the requirenments for Standard English and Maths, but I only got a UAI of 70.75 I rang them up and they accpeted me at the end.
I was scared by the 2U maths assumed knowledge on the UAC book but during the interview, I asked the interviewer, I think it was Peter Castle, he said that shouldnt be a problem. It turns out one of the first year core subject, MATH121 - Discrete Maths needs to have an assumed knowledge of at least Band 4 in 2U maths. It was a bit hard for me to study this subject, but after a whole session of hard working, I got 68 (credit) in the final exam. Thats the only problem I have with general maths.Murf said:
If you get a good mark (Band 5+) in general maths, that you should be fine, i got 86 in my final HSC.
Discrete maths isn't exactly like 2U maths, if you have some algebra knowledge, then it will help you heaps in this subject.
If you are doing SDD, it will help you a lot during your first session in Computer Science, many people struggled because they dont have any programming background.
Many people that enrolled in the subject have previously attended TAFE, and many of them didnt do 2U maths in their HSC.
By the way if you like to find out more about Computer Science, instead of ringing Sonia Jennings, you can try Peter Castle, the degree coordinators, 4221-3837.

It's true, once upon a time back in '01/'02, they offered commerce as a early entry.... Yes, I've been at UOW long enough to remember that, mostly for the fact that I got into a commerce degree via early entry.Murf said:
Today, UOW uses early entry placements in the same way builders use putty, to fill the spaces.
