    HSC Plus bonus points

    did he get a main round offer, or was it in the second round or third round - coz not all places are taken in one go - some ppl dont accept the offer so the UAI cutoff to get into the second round is usually lower. and im positive that under the HSC plus scheme for UTS, its max of 5 points...

    "Discuss" in economics

    Our teacher is adamant that a question that starts with 'discuss', even a 4 marker, means talking about short and long term effects this isnt mentioned anywhere on the board of studies syllabuses or list of key terms etc. dont need to do this for any other subject either. it really...

    HSC Plus bonus points

    no im pretty sure you would both get it in that scenario.. the thing is, ur UAI is not gonna change (it will stay 92 or 93) but, its the 'selection rank' that is the uai plus the bonus points. If you get 95.20 as a UAI (WITHOUT bonus points) then ur essentially guaranteed a place. For thos who...

    CSSA Mathematics Advanced Paper

    lol ... i didnt find it THAT bad.... but it felt weird coz the progression from q1 - q10 didnt feel that way - i mean, usually its obvious how its gets progressively harder. I didnt find q10 impossible (which it basically should be) yet i found q1 pretty hard... and the middle questions were...

    AUSD is all time

    interesting stats... but back in 1982 the exchange rate was pegged by the government... when the Australian dollar was floated in late 1983 (ie; people's buying and selling of the dollar would determine the value), it lost 40% of its value - so it was obviously pegged too high... todays dollar...
