STAT exam advice please (1 Viewer)

Hi, i am currently in this position.

I wish to study commerce at umaq starting in 2011. I completed my hsc in 2009 and got an atar of low 70's due to my severe lack of effort during highschool. (Commerce at umaq requires a low 80's atar i believe)

Do universities take STAT results as a serious form of academic merit for courses like commerce, law, engineering etc.? I'm a bit skeptical of these STAT exams as a means of entering university given the amount of academic input required

Thanks in advance for the replies

Hey i did the stat test at the end of 2008 and got into my construction management degree at newcastle uni. When u apply for a degree at newcastle uni it tells u what the STAT test will actually help you get into from memory it got you into degrees like commerce and taching and stuff though im not to sure about Sydney unis could be alot tougher seeingas u only need like 65 or something for commerce in newcastle
