I understand that I might not necessarily be able to get a valid estimate or answer via this thread, however I am interested to know what the UAI cut-off for Fine Arts might be in 2009 or what they have been in the past - I believe it was 78 last year. If anybody knows of any sources which...

Sweetheart I had several students within my art class who left their bodies of work to the proverbial "last minute". Within the last few months or so (perhaps even weeks) they produced a series of works which I concede were nothing special, and they scored 39/50 within the internal assessment...

I thought the exam was relatively straightforward + felt the questions were reasonably broad - seemed to provide a lot of room for personal interpretation, which I LOVE to see within an art exam. I was initially quite thrown by part b) of question 1 if only because I was unsure of what exactly...

I chose question ten and I wrote about Kentridge, Gormley + Mueck

Re: the big question WHAT UNI DO YOU WANT TO GO TO AND WHY! Unsw - Cofa

Though I haven't spoken to my friend in question for a few days now, I am aware that he is clearly quite upset (somewhat an understatement considering the circumstances). I certain that many people have recommended that he speak to a counsellor, however for SOME reason he seems quite reluctant...

agreed.

I'm never able to understand why or how it is that some individuals are able to write so much and feel so confident with their responses when they leave an hour or 45 minutes early! our teachers always suggested that we stay right up until the end, because apparently if you are finishing an hour...

to be honest i had a little bit of trouble discussing hat's foreign policy. i have a niggling feeling that i left a crucial argument out of my response! gar!

this is true of course. i don't know - i don't think i'd like to leave early during an exam even if i felt i had nothing else to write - what if you had remembered something! i know my ancient teacher was particularly shitty with the kids who left an hour early or so ... in any case, i hope you...

I actually ended up doing the question on the image of the warrior pharaoh ... after about half an hour of it i started struggling for new material! i could be wrong, but i feel that for 25 marks, asking you to talk about where the image of the warrior pharaoh was used might be a bit limiting...

I am never able to comprehend why so many students choose to leave the exam an hour - 1/2 an hr early. honestly, how is it that you feel so confident with your answers that you feel you can spare the extra hour or so? certainly at 12 i was beginning to get a little bored myself but there's...

That sounds like a very sensible idea. I don't know that anybody has DIED, but it is altogether very concerning that a student as capable as he is doing this - at the moment he's a little hard to talk to, and he's having difficulty accepting that perhaps he genuinely has grounds for...

Wow, what school do you go to? I don't have hopes as ambitious for mine! What's yours like?

I know! He would have been better off not attending - i don't do modern myself but apparently he sat there for 2 hours before leaving an hour early and he didn't even mark his paper!

I'm not suggesting that the HSC is necessarily so difficult that you shouldn't be able to at least attempt your paper, i agree that the exams have been structured in such a way that every student in NSW can complete their papers. I myself don't believe that I necessarily wowed em in english, to...

I'm not in the position myself, rather a very close friend of mine, who is normally such a confident student! in any case the other week he decided not to complete two of his three prescribed essays in english advanced and afterwards he was understandably quite upset. I'm not sure what the...

Do you guys believe that stress is really a legitimate excuse for applying for misadventure? I am aware that you really ought to be quite ill in order to successfully apply for misadventure, however if you were quite stressed to the degree where you produced consistent non-attempts in your...

We hope!! Fingers cross'd! Like I said, he's an excellent student, and if he were to successfully apply for misadventure, his estimated mark would be excellent I'm certain. In any case thank you for your advice!
