as an 04 student, trust me, ranks are most important, if ur assessment marks are all 40% yet u get first in every subject.. well then u go get higher marks say 80% in the external exam and all ur assessment marks get moderated to 80% so ur way better off. make sure ur in the top few of each...

as a '04 physics student i recommend to you all summarising the syllabus, or at least writing up notes based on the syllabus, and doing lots of past papers, there is a text book out called Success One Physics or something, best book ever. especially since the science hsc exams are based entirely...

im a 2004 EES student.. it's a very easy subject. one major hint for this subject (and all sciences) is go completely off the syllabus with ur revision cos the questions are exactly from there. so just go thru all the dot points and summarise them. trust me on this it worked for me.

what i needed 91.00 what i wanted 90.00+ (as there were other options at about 90 UAI) what i expected after hearing my results 92 what i got 88.35 FUCK IT!

98.70 public non-selective, Davidson high (rnaked 157th this year) pretty bogan school!

Advanced English 78 Mathematics 2U 89 Physics 85 Economics 86 Earth/Enviro 89 SAM 2003 = 90.55 2004 UAI = 88.35 a bit disappointed especially since some of my friends with lower scaled subjects and similar marks ended up with UAIs in the 90s...

i didnt get 89, i got 88.35 but i still feel ur pain, my goal for 2 years has been to get 90.00, i asked for no more, i would take no less, but i got less... and the gay thing is wen i saw my results i thought i would get into the 90s.... grrr

i think scaling is fucked and doesnt exist. this year i got: 2 u adv english = 78 physics = 85 economics = 86 2 u maths 89 earth/enviro = 89 i was expecting into the 90s as most of those subjects are scaled, but i ended up with... UAI=88.35 so i missed my preferences... absolute...

was this in 2004? or another year?

SAM predicted 90.85 or somethin, and i got 88.35, im a bit pissed off cos i need 89 grrr

not as good as everyone else on here, i got 88.35 which isnt bad but i needed 89-91 range for my preferences so ive missed out on all of my preferences.. so gutted right now.. give me a rope..

excuses excuses...

eng adv 78 2u maths 89 earth/enviro 89 economics 86 physics 85 im reasonably happy but i need 91 UAI and i am not very confident that ill get it with those marks :S

yeah maybe only 50/100 if ur unlucky and hav a dislexic marker

yeah gordos method doesnt work cos say a class of students total assessment marks added to 500, and u got 15% of the marks (assessment mark of 75). we are assuming here that a number of students did really badly and got 20 in their assessments. in the final exams everyone studies really hard...
