    Umat day!!!!

    I honestly do not remember at all. Maybe other BOS'ers can help you out. The exam was just too intense I did not even get a chance to take a breath for the whole 3 hours. My mind was just blank after that.

    UMAT Calculations!!

    Derno bros. Every question is scaled according to difficulty. I assume section 1 and 3 will turn alright if you you think you did bad.

    Umat day!!!!

    Honestly don't even want to talk about the test. Section 1: Doable but time constraints I assume got the better of people. Ended up guessing half of it :( Section 2: Fair and OK. Section 3: Don't know if its me but I felt it was very hard for some reason. Overall: Goodbye med :(

    umat raw score!

    Look man. No one exactly knows, so what they say might give you false hope. Questions are scaled according to their difficulty and we don't know the difficulty of each section until we sit it tomorrow.

    Umat question type

    Just relax. I really hate section 1 so for these types of questions I just eliminate the options. I can't think comprehend info fast enough so I read again and again which consumes shitloads of time. But really, I don't care anymore. Just want to sit the test and move on. And really, I hate how...

    How important is English for ATAR!!!

    Yep english is the icebreaker at the end of the day imo. I didn't care about it in yr 11, but realised how important it was at the beginning of the year 12. So at the end of the day, english will count to your ATAR regardless of how well you perform in your other subjects.

    UMAT Admission ticket!!

    Hmm maybe it was randomly assigned. Read from MSO, not sure if srs, but they think they assign the morning/afternoon sesh based on the time when you registered. Lol. Maybe it is, because I registered like 2 weeks before deadline at 4pm or something. :S Tbh I woulda preferred the earlier...

    UMAT past papers!

    Yea every question is scaled based on the difficulty of the exam. Thus in saying so, an 80/110 cannot accurately determine what percentile you will get, as your marks are scaled and compared with the other candidates in order to determine your final percentile.

    Chemistry Help :D

    Should start at the beginning the moles section of the metals topic from memory. Lot of calculations in that section alongside with the water and energy topic.
