Pretty sure that bringing laptops to sefton hs is fine. A lot of the students in my year in sefton brought in macs, hps and lenovos. However that was during year 10+. Just make sure you use it appropriately lol. Mobile phones in sefton 'must' be turned off during school times, but really who...

Hi there :) I'm a first year at unsw. I got 77 percentile as well with: S1-49 S2-63 S3-56 Do you think I might have a chance for medicine at wsu if I'm part of the gws? Or maybe Utas? :/ Or should I just forget about UMAT and apply for jcu if I have a wam of 87 and atar of 99.00? I'm pretty...

Hey there Faris, from what I've seen the umat requirement can start from 50 and above for UNSW depending on your atar. I was able to make it in with a UMAT of 57. After asking some friends, I think that if your ATAR is in the low to mid 90s, then you can make it in with a 75ish UMAT.

Section 1 was pretty good, S2 pretty bad, S3 pretty tame. It was harder than last years umat. Didn't finish in time and had to guess the last 10 questions in 1 minute. Hopefully they were all B's hahaha.....yeah I'm dead

168cm - Female :) Pretty average I guess

In reference to whether a teacher needs to know what your text is about or not, the answer is no, they do not have to know it. Just make sure you ground your related text when you're writing your essay, so that they can have a rough idea of what is going on. I used related texts that no one knew...

~93-94

Oh well, just needed confirmation on my chances. I'll keep trying to get into medicine though. Thanks hahaha. I'm happy about my atar, just hoped I did better in umat.

Hi everyone! I'm kinda hanging on false hope here, but with an atar of 99.00 and umat of total 157 (with the first section being 62), is there any chance i'll make it into UQ for a bonded place? I know my total umat is ~20 below the total preferred (really screwed up section 2) but can my first...

But the thing is, it apparently has a drop out rate of 40%, so it's got me really worried. Even if I do get help from friends, I feel like my maths capabilities is a big factor on how well ill do in the course.

Hi everyone!!! :) So I was contemplating on doing actuarial in either Unsw or Macquarie, but I'm not sure if my maths ability is good enough. For HSC I got 95 for MX1 and 89 in MX2. I love maths and I enjoy solving problems so I thought maybe I would enjoy actuarial studies but I'm worried...

Well i wrote 1300 in 40 min, so i guess I would write approximately 1900-2000 in 1 hr (assuming I get tired), but that's when I've memorized my essays. I've never went in without a memorised essay. I believe you should try to push to at least 1200-1300 words per hour (without memorisation) by...

You mean with a 50-60 percentile yeah? :)

NO WAY!!!!! :O So I have a chance?!??! I thought I was completely gone :D I hope I'm not holding on to false hope though hahaha. Has there actually been a case where someone made it in with a similar umat and atar?
