Just curious if i have say:
Preference 1:
Bachelor of Construction Project Management/
Bachelor of Arts in International Studies (UTS)

Preference 2:
Construction and property management (UNSW)
Preference 3:

Bachelor of Construction Project Management (UTS)

If i have been accepted to preference 1 in the main round can i then change it for the later rounds to do preference 2 and if i can does my chances of entry change? Also can i accept it then change my preferences?

And just curious does anyone know about these courses, what do you think of them (especially the international studies one)?

Thank you (i really wish they fix this site so i can read previous posts, i need help making a decision)

I don't think it works like that. Once you take an offer for your first preference, then UAC assumes that is what you really wanted and that's all you'll get offered.

No, you can change your preferences after Main Round and you will be considered equally for the later rounds. And you can accept your Main Round offer (UAC advises you to) in which case you have to withdraw from that offer if you choose to accept a late round offer.

So to rack up as many offers as possible then as soon as you get an offer change it to be your last preference, am I right? Also, can you do that within a round?

Ah okay, so I'll scab as many offers as possible and then after the late February round make a final decision or something like that.

Sounds fun.

As in, you get an offer on the day of the main round then you immediately put it as your last preference and then have time to get more offers within that main round? Or is the main round like an hour or something.

But as far as I am aware, once you decline an offer, you can't just go back and accept it, unless you were reoffered in it second/final round.

No, all offers for each round go out at once - they've all been issued before you get to access them at 9pm.

Yes, hence why you accept any offer you get, and then if you want to accept an offer in a later round, you withdraw from your previous offer.
