    Completely forget but…

    I'm guessing that because the ATAR is a rank, if a course previously required a 90 ATAR, it would only take the top 10% of achievers, so even if the average aggregate mark /500 for everyone this year is lower, I don't see any reason why the ATAR requirement would change as it would still only...

    Grammarly for advanced english

    If you don't want to pay, I personally found LanguageTool free to be better than Grammarly free.

    Anki ??

    Personally, I used Anki for my first two topics in my subjects for the HSC but stopped because the reviews became overwhelming. If you do use it, do it for things you need to rote memorise -- quotes/stats/maths formulas (also the image occlusion plugin is great for things like bio diagrams and...

    How hard is extension 1 maths if it's self taught?

    While I've only used it for maths advanced, Khan Academy really is one of the best sites for learning math and I def plan on using it going into uni (better than Eddie Woo imo). You just need to find where the US way of organising their content matches up with the AU syllabus, but hey in the end...

    Sorry I haven't looked much into UOW so I can't give a proper answer.

    i can’t study

    Yeah I had the same question about uni's and have basically searched through every BOS, Reddit, Quora, Whirlpool post and besides super competitive fields like medicine/law, your university rep doesn't matter too much. Australian uni's are generally considered comparable, where your individual...

    i can’t study

    Yeah I definitely feel the same way. Since the beginning of last term I've sort of been studying on and off but when I received an early entry offer (although my second preference) I just stopped completely and started doing uni stuff which held my attention waaay more. It's not really...

    comp sci, math or actuarial

    Sorry to hijack, but how important would you say attending a go8 uni like UNSW is for comp sci? Do employers care more about the uni reputation or personal projects + internships to land an interview? I'm just trying to decide between UNSW and UTS, where I would prefer UTS because it's more...

    Comp Sci with General Maths?

    Yeah. Been pretty fun since I started term 2 holidays so I thought why not do it for uni lol.

    Comp Sci with General Maths?

    I had the same question in deciding between the two! Looking at the UNSW and UTS handbooks, they both cover a lot of the same content but it seems for CS you choose a speciality pretty early on whereas SWE you pick an assortment of electives. Also, CS does have more maths and theory into...

    uts early entry

    Someone on the ConquerHSC discord posted a message thats pinned in the tertiary-edu-and-careers channel which I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post here but basically when you receive this confirmation then you've accepted the offer but not yet enrolled. You only enrol if you do the HECS thing...

    uts early entry

    Yeah I've only gone so far as accepting my course and haven't done any of the HECS stuff. You can always do that after you receive your ATAR if you choose to enrol. I'm guessing they want your info so you're more likely to enrol at UTS next year. In the PDF they provide, as long as you don't go...

    uts early entry

    I think since in the email it said, 'Enrolment for 2022 will open from 9am on Monday 25 October 2021', so you're not locked in as you haven't enrolled, but have accepted the offer.

    uts early entry

    My careers advisor said that we should accept any offers because it's only when we choose to enroll next year that we are locked in (and subsequently decline our other offers). Also I'm not sure but previously the 'provisional offer' was a minimum ATAR requirement but since then, UTS waived...

    uts early entry

    Yeah I received mine at 9AM through email -- they'll probably stagger it throughout the day
