Perhaps you inputted inaccurate details?

For 2002/2001, it should be very close to what you would of got if you did the HSC back then.

Or you really are that good

nope, it has serouisly understimested my uai results

Unless you are one of the top of the state, the marks you input for the 2001/2002 will be correct to approximately +/- 1.

What have you inputted?

I don't even believe you have UAISeeker dirty dave

 

[dirty dave]

i am not gonna put my mark up for everyone to laugh at

 

[Ragerunner]

I'm talking about the UAISeeker.

How does it underestimate you when you don't even have it?

Make sure you're not entering marks when it's in percentiles mode, and vice versa.

I feel the same way too

It gives me an estimation of 95% when all my subjects are in Band 5 and 4s.

That's what I thought as well until I realised I was in percentiles mode. It makes a very big difference.

i've tried both mode
(adjusted myself lower than how I would perform in both the percentile and the other mode)

still... I don't feel secured

are you doing yours this year or have you already finished?

 

[Ragerunner]

I'm doing mine this year.

But wouldn't that have the reverse effect? I mean, for example with phys and chem, 95 and 94 resp. will get you 99th percentiles.

I put myself in the 50 percentile, pretty average.

With high marks, it makes little difference. Try comparing a mark of 70 to the 70th percentile.
