    Using SAM to calculate your UAI

    Meh.... I thought it was common practise that a lot of schools did. They didn't give out names, just marks and what they look like as a UAI.

    Horizontal/vertical integration

    They can also use one to promote the other. eg. Coles taking over Shell petrol stations, they offer discounts on petrol if you shop at Coles.

    Using SAM to calculate your UAI

    I think I may have found a *fairly* accurate method of calculating your UAI using your assessment ranks. I got given a copy of the 2003 moderated assessment and HSC marks for last year's year 12 students. I went through it, and aligned my ranks for each subject. (ie. say I came 3rd in...

    Circular Motion Q

    I've been doing a few questions on circular motion and a common part of a question is to find the centripetal acceleration of a point. How do you do this? Surely it isn't as easy as saying Centripetal acceleration=(v^2)/r=(w^2).r and subbing in the values for w and r?

    needing a whinge...

    Take some time to sit down and think about things. Make sure you are listening to music, Jack Johnson should be a medical diagnosis for cases such as this. (Chemical Brothers Come with Us also chills you out a bit) Also, two months from now, all of these problems are going to go away.

    Would my results so far be good enough to get into Commerce at UNSW?

    I'd like a UAI prediction please

    At the risk of sounding cliche, I'd like a UAI prediction. I go to a public school, non selective. English Advanced: Trial= 62%, Overall assessment rank = 25/62 Physics: Trial= 85%, Overall assessment rank = 3/25 Business Studies: Trial= 84%, Overall assessment rank =...

    3 unit marks for 4 unit

    If you can see where you went wrong in the two exams you went bad in, then you should consider it. You need to be rock solid in your 3u stuff to do 4u, since harder 3u is the hardest thing you will do in 4u (in my opinion anyway).

    Private or Public?

    Hmm... I find it uneasing that I am the only public school student here (of those who have answered anyway). I'm going for band E4, but to be honest I'm not sure how hard it is to get. Last year 3 people did 4-unit and 2 got band E3, one E2. If I had a raw assessment mark of say.... 75%...

    Private or Public?

    Hi people, I am fairly new to this site and am getting the impression that most of the 4-unit people who come on this site go to a private, rather than a public school (no real evidence for this, just an impression). I was just wondering if yous could answer a few questions so I get a good...
