    Is it worth it?

    Mmm... your actual questions could have been more explicit. :P Irrespective of whether or not the BIT "means much in the real world", it's probably better than the BA.

    Aligned marks - Scaled Marks

    If you wanted to accurately convert an aligned mark to a scaled mark, you would ideally first 'unalign' it back to a raw mark, and then convert that raw mark to a scaled mark. UAI calculators typically by-pass this middle step due to the lack of data pertaining to raw marks.

    You must satisfactorily complete at least 2 units of HSC English in order to be eligible for a UAI. It is not difficult to satisfactorily complete the course; less than 1% of students fail.

    What about these kinds of subjects?

    It's rather unfortunate that all of Dan Brown's books are based on the same general premise. :(

    How I got....30?

    Your raw school assessment marks are completely independent of your potential aligned HSC marks. You should use the Board's Standards Packages to estimate your aligned marks.

    Where do u get the SAM data?

    I have no qualms with people who simply want to understand the arcane procedures behind the UAI, and hence I am always happy to explain the actual methods used by the Technical Committee on Scaling and the UAC. However, I am more reluctant to provide detailed explanations regarding the technical...

    Where do u get the SAM data?
