Where I come from you only need tutoring if you are failing a subject miserably.

I went to a public school, non-selective. Business Studies: 84, Band 5, Rank: 3/28 English Advanced: 84, Band 5, Rank: 27/61 Maths Ext 1: 91, Band E4, Rank: 1/14 Maths Ext 2: 89, Band E3, Rank: 1/3 Physics: 92, Band 6, Rank: 3/21 UAI: 96.05

WTF? I can't believe you just said that.....

On this site 95% of the people posting may have got a UAI over 95, but I'd say state-wide it's a bit closer to 5% :p Also, I think the UAI includes everyone who graduated from year 10, but didn't go on to study in year 11 or 12, so in fact out of the 66,000 that undertook the HSC the...

UNSW and USyd have higher cutoffs because, well, they are in Sydney.

What subjects do you do 86_gurl?

I haven't talked to everyone, but as far as I know dux was Dan Wills, and he got 98.45 from memory. His predicted UAI from SAM yesterday was 99.1, so we all expected him to get dux. By the looks of the distinguished achievers list no one will beat that, the next highest was about 97.5 I think.

Yeah, I know that all my friends who thought they were a chance of 90s got mid 90s, I myself was expecting about 90-91. Our physics class did very well, 11% of the state got band 6s but 33% of our class got band 6s, not bad for a non-selective public school. Overall, I think not as many...

English (Advanced) - 84 Business Studies - 84 Maths Ext 1 - 91 Maths Ext 2 - 89 Physics - 92 SAM UAI - 96.75 2004 UAI - 96.05

My school is just your average public, non-selective and 7/21 people in our physics class got band 6s, that's pretty good hey?

I must confess, I used the English resources a great deal in preparing my essays. I know for a fact my English results would have been worse had I not used these resources.

yeah sames, I want to do commerce at UNSW which last year had a cutoff of 96, my UAI was 96.05 so I may scrape in!

96.05, SAM gave me 96.75 according to the 2003 results. I'm suing Lazarus :p

Not from 2002 to 2003. If you type some random marks in some random subjects in SAM I think you'll find that your UAI for 2003 was greater than your UAI for 2002.

Shit man.... I'm cutting it close.

What do you mean by "too dramatic"? Too dramatic for me is a fluctuation of about 0.25 My SAM prediction was 96.75, and I wanna get into commerce at UNSW which last year had a cutoff of 96.... I also have a sneaking suspicion that the commerce cutoff will rise.

Well this site has grown in popularity a great deal over the past year or so, as such it would be expected that there are more people getting over 95.

I got 89 in Ext. 2 maths, but I'm not complaining, cos I got band 6s in physics and ext. 1 maths.

Just got my results back then, I got higher than I predicted in every course. Business Studies- 84 English Advanced- 84 Ext. 1 Maths- 91 Ext. 2 Maths- 89 Physics- 92 Considering I did shit all study through my school life, it's easy to see why I'm ecstatic :D SAM prediction gave me...

rofl... that's like me. The only time I studied for business studies the whole year was the morning before the exam (it was a morning exam as well). I'm sort of hoping I can also pull some good results out of my arse.
