Hey i was wondering, what happens if you get

mid 90s for extension 2 English, and
get lyk high 80 or 90 for ext 2 maths,

but u failed ext 1 maths miserabley, and
getting around 80 for eco/biz/2ueng/3ueng.....(top 5ish for all of them)

will the marks in the ext 2 eng and maths after scale up be sufficenit enough to cover up the hole in 3u maths? as in will it drag my uai down significantly??...it will be isntersting to see how much the ext 2 subjects do scale up......

i know it is a werid senario, but yeah, i am a living exam of how 3u does not make sense while 4u maths is just so much easier....

thankz

truly

im not sure, but i think you will be ok...like, ideally it would be good if you were going great guns in ALL your subjects, but having the extension 2 ones SHOULD cover the extension 1 one..

In reply to the original question, it doesnt matter what subjects u do, u'll get dragged down if u do badly in something. In particular with 3U maths, it depends what UAI u are looking for, and wat u mean by 'fail'

but we all have differnt goals .......it is unfair to compare my aims with urs.......u might want to do somehting that doesnt require a 99 of a uai...thatz ur choice,

ur goal is not mine and dont criticise pplz for wanting to achieve their goal.....
