ah k..so is it safe to say they are close to percentage at all? if not...out of 44 in S1...i know scaling is unknown and changes but cant be by that much, what is roughly what to try and get to get a 70? would it be close to 30-35?

ok so here - see how u have 50 in S1, 70 in S2 and 60 in S3...what are these marks? are they percentages???

it seems that med is more about handling and managing work load... you can be pure genious and not succeed at med... i was talking to a friend whose uai was 99.5..or99.6 i cant remember, but he was struggling to keep a credit average and actually fell below this and lost half of his med...

yer ha i understand u cant really know...i mean like an estimate tho as in-what should i be aiming to get in these that may, even remotely, reflect my mark in actual umat see a friend of mine did 10 of these and got between 60-70% in each section, then got percentile of 91 in actual umat...so...
