largest uai course jump (1 Viewer)

[hatty]

hey

do you guys think the UAIs for courses will increase by alot this year? which courses will go up the most? and which courses will go down? im guessing engineering at UNSW might decrease

and over the years, what is the largest jump UAI cutoff wise youve seen? ive heard of courses increasing by 10 marks, anyone seen higher?

cheers

 

[rayeman]

apparently this year has the most hsc candidates "ever", so probably would be expecting some changes, but how much higher can the 99 courses go?

not more than 1 whole UAI point (assuming they move up)

I'm not sure about the highest UAI jump but I think this one is by far one of the most incredible:

The University Of Western Sydney, Parramatta campus,

B Health Science/B Laws (705680)

2002 Cutoff: 96.60,
2003 Cutoff: 90.10

Whoa.....

UNSW Commerce will probably jump quite a bit.

 

[fantasia]

yeh i reckon UNSW commerce will jump by at least 0.5. everyone i seem to be talking to wants to get into commerce..

but i doubt courses such as law/med will go up by much.

 

[matt_f64]

fuck, i wana do commerce, thats homo

Well if you dont make the cutoff, just transfer. No biggie.

yeah but wat course shud i start at?

 

[fantasia]

business? economics?

but yeh commerce jumped from 2003 to 2004 by 0.5 .. i'd expect the same to happen this year.

 

[mack]

Well a good backdoor into commerce is economics, seeing as it has pretty much identical first year subs, so you can transfer into Commerce and still get your degree in the same amount of time. This is exactly what Minai did.

hey!!!

well i was hoping to go to uni and then i did the SAM thing and it predicted my uai to be in the 40's ...

can you do any courses at uni with a uai of 40-50?

The advanced science course at UWS jumped by 13 - from 84 to 97 - it jumped by a similar amount at all campuses. What has gone on at the UWS science faculties?

Arts subjects tend to be the ones with the biggest jump up

 

[White Rabbit]

Wollongong seems to be jumping a bit too -- on average, 3 points across generic courses - arts, science etc...

 

[flipsyde]

A lot of the computing, digital media, multimedia, art and design courses have gone up by like 5 points
.... sigh. Im prolly not gonna get into anything.. I failed 2 of my trials
