anyone know what the rural cut-off umat is? For example, is it below 168 :uhoh:
I haven't recieved anything yet....
someone said they were running a week late or something....is there still hope or what?

Oh, and if cutoff for normal entry is 178, would anyone be able to guess for rural/remote??

146! Oh thank the lord, im so happy, any rural kids got an interview yet, i heard someone got a letter and went out to meet the postman i was that excited, and the i had an official looking letter! but alas, it was from the red cross telling me my blood type, which was still cool, but nonetheless a let down

i am not kidding u people - last year's rural cutoff was indeed 146. This year its slightly higher but if u have a UMAT score in the high 150's and over expect an interview. as i said in my previous post i did get an interview this year with 162.

Yes I got one.

Now all I have to do is decide between driving and catching a train. How hard is it to get from the Newcastle train station to the Uni?

Oh and my Umat was 206.

Can anyone tell me a bit about the newcastle style of interviewing? Apparently it's a lot more "serious" than UNSW?

Newcastle has a station in campus.
I forget what its called tho. Shouldnt be too hard to look up.
I got no idea about their interviewing style though. Can't be more relaxed than UNSW lol. That was great :)

ah you Mexicans with your inferior VCE....

I bet your english is a lot better than ours though. HSC english is terrible!

As you were the bringer of good news for me, I wish you all the best!
Good luck!

Hahaha.. Small world hey!

I'm sure you'll do fine, the first one was definately the hardest nerves wise.. By your 3rd - 4th exam, enthusiam leaves and all you can picture is a life without highschool...

You probably don't need good luck, so, Best Wishes.

Hope we both get UNSW (Stupid Monash)~!

:)
