I'm kinda over this thread and havent been watching for weeks, but just want to point out - 1) I did TPC at TAFE because I did not do HSC at school. In fact I didnt do my school cert. I started working fulltime when I was 14; for reasons I don't have to explain or justify to anyone. So it's...

No, I haven't.. I thought our scaled marks were going to be available in e-services but obviously not.. Can anyone who did the TPC last year tell me how/when you find out your scaled marks and TES?

Show off! TES will prob be 300/300 because all those subjects (except maybe LALS B) would scale up anyway. Only the top/best 3 are used to calculate your TES.

Now my turn - this comment is so nonsensical, I don't know where to begin. Ok, I'm convinced that I should go to Usyd now. Thanks everyone :angel: P.S.: There's nothing racist about not wanting to be the only caucasian in a room full of 100 asians (the same way any foreigner might feel...

Actually I'm 28 years old - I've been in the workforce half my life, and lived at Kingsford for about 25 years - so I think I have lived enough (and known asians) to know what I'm talking about. Oh, and go ahead and flame me for being a mature age student, coming from TAFE - don't...

I don't know - maybe an arty asian? Who's segregating now?

Yep, I am worried about the toilets. At TAFE I'd have to try about 5 stalls before finding a clean one. It's gross. If I'm paying $6k or whatever it is a year, I want clean toilets.

I have no issue with having asian friends. I have quite a few. However I've been told by people that went to UNSW that they are "cliquey" there (or in a uni environment); which is perfectly understandable (if I was an international student or had another 1st language, I'd prob do the same)...

Sooo.. "I'm not racist" BUT I have been 'warned' by people that if I go to UNSW, I'll hate it because most students are asians who tend to stick together, so the social aspect will be shit for me.. I'm looking at Arts. What percentage of students would you say are aussie caucasians? Do you...

Someone snuck me a copy of my transcript.. it has the raw marks on there and a field for the scaled marks, but they're not on there yet.

From what I gather, all we receive is a certificate (saying we've completed the TPC) and a transcript of our raw marks for each subject. To my knowledge, TAFE then "scale" the raw marks and produce a TES, which is (possibly only) divulged to UAC. UAC "convert" it to an equivalent UAI, and...

Thanks. (That sucks!)

Hi all Have you ever heard of a TPC subject's pass mark being 55% (instead of 50%)? A classmate of mine was knocked back from doing Biology B because he got exactly 50% in Biology A.. the teacher says the pass mark is 55%.. but other TPC teachers I have asked, seem surprised by this..

I have done Preliminary Maths A. Just wondering if there is any other (1) unit that I can do which will bring me up to a level that is recognised by universities as "two unit mathematics"? My TAFE (Randwick) said 2U is classified as Preliminary Maths A + Foundation Maths A + Calculus B. But...

Hi all I was wondering if you can transfer into vet science at usyd with a D average from 1yr of ANY degree? e.g. 1yr of Bachelor of Arts at USyd and can you transfer from 1yr of a degree from a diff uni (even CSU correspondence) or do you have to transfer internally from usyd? e.g. Could...

Hi I'm currently doing my TPC, and by the end of this year, I will have completed enough subjects (and B modules) to get my certificate (and I WILL apply for my cert). But I would like to "add on" more subjects next year (Foundation Mathematics and Calculus). Is that possible, and will my TES...

HSC at Randwick TAFE has no adults in it. TPC has lots of people in their 20's so I still wouldnt call that 'middle aged'... but you're right, it may differ greatly between campuses.

Hi Can anyone tell me if your attendance matters in a TPC course? i.e. do I have to attend a minimum amount of classtime (e.g. 80% of enrolled hours) to achieve my certificate? If so, does that mean (80% or whatever amount) of EACH subject, or just the course as a whole? I've been missing a...

Thanks guys, that was very helpful. :-) So just to clarify - your mark in A level modules is definitely displayed on the transcript? Also, is the compulsory computing A level module graded at all, or does everyone just get "Pass (Ungraded)"? Can someone tell me which other "compulsory" core...

Hi I'm doing the TPC but am curious what the final certificates look like, how the modules are listed, etc etc. Would somebody mind posting theirs (with private data/anything they dont want disclosed, blacked out) or posting a link to a sample certificate, if you know of any such links? I...
