apparently the ret test is just basic stuffs. i never did it, i also did a portfolio.. not that they accepted it.

 

[boredofschool]

whats this portfolio thing??

I wish I did RET.......
I was going through denial during that time *sigh*

AHEM*

*wonders why the question still hasn't been answered by the actual UWS'ers*

RET is just like the STAT test. You sit for the multiple choice AND the English component. Multiple choice consists of logic questions and predominatly mathematical problems. The RET test is a $137 exam that can *substitute* your UAI for the actual test score you got in the HSC, thus allowing your RET score to replace your UAI when choosing a course ONLY in UWS. (So, in summary, your RET score will only be used in your chosen university).

The problem with RET is that it is only applicable to some courses and there is a cap on the score you can get. I think the maximum was in the high 80's last time I checked.

You should of recieved practice examination papers upon applying to sit for RET.


EDIT: BTW, the English component is very broad, they usually ask you a very interesting question or give you a very broad statement. It is up to you to interpret the question and give meaning to it. One of the practice questions was "Chocalate is better than sex".

nah portfolio instead of doing the ret test. just had to write bout urself n that. like a uts personal statement.

i got extra 10uai points above my uai for any uws course as uws was my only preference

 

[ihatecensorship]

ohhhh so basically its just another avenue for uws to justify letting another hand full of dumbies fluke their way into a course?????

So basicallly people to stupid to get a good UAI get another back door into the shit uni???/?


ELMO and all the rest of you stop pretending UWS is a good university. UNSW< UMACQ-USYD UTS all shit over UWS and everyone knows it.

Its commonly accepted. go look at the entry requirements to UWS verse the other respected universities...ITs just obvious.

If anyone cant seeee why UWS is shitter than those other unis basically you deserve to be at UWS cos your obviously not that bright.

Oh dear.. talk about missing the point totally

I am not pretending about anything ... fine I know UWS is not as good as the others.. what we all don't need is a dickhead like you opening your mouth about it all the time.

You have a way of avoiding my question as to why YOU are at UWS? if your oh sO much better than the rest of us..
..don't try and use your stupid excuse of "less competition so I can beat everyone" its pure shit if anything

In actual fact, all other universities offer "backdoors" to potential students, like the opportunity to present to them a portfolio or to sit the RET test. The RET exam is not an exclusive avenue to UWS. Nearly all univerisities in NSW offer it, the only thing that differs is the level of availability to sit the exam for particular courses.
