Also, lol, I think they fucked up their example, not sure where they pull out the 1.25 % weighting seeing as its only a 20% discount.
maybe because 80% of 125% = 100%
so going by this someone who pays 1000, will not have effectively paid 1200 (0.2 * 1000 + 1000)
instead, the wole 1.25 thing indictes to me that they are taking that you have paid 80% of it, and they'll cover the other 20%
ie, you pay 800, they'll take it you paid 1.25*800 = 1000, and that works out that u paid 80% and the gov paid 20%
and if iwe apply it to that 1000 example, the take it u paid 1250, which is 50 buks more, so its better for us i suppose
so all in all, yeh they just work it out suhc that whatever yoiu pay will be 80% of what is paid in total by you and the gov. Cause if u simply do 1.2*1000, for example, = 1200 - the percentage u paid is 83.33%
[dunno if u understand me, i'm just rambling
]
and yeh, ^^^ ur luky ur parents paid for you, i paid from my own money
and you pay by semester, so i doubt you'll need all 8000 at once
