For general maths..
if u had a top 1% mark (99th percentile) ur mark of 92 became a UAI equivalent of 80... if you had a top 10% mark (90th percentile) ur makr of 82 because UAI equiv = 68....

top 25% (75th Percentile)=75 became 56
top 50% (50th percentile)= 66 became 40
top 75% mark (25th percentile) = 58 became 25!!!!

(in other words... to achieve a result that is worthwhile get into the top 10%..........

Personally I prefer: Trying is the first step towards failure :p
