These ATARs are looking great everyone. Congratulations to so many of you - your hard work obviously payed off.
I cannot echo your advice anymore. A friend at my school 2 years ago received an ATAR 2.5 below the cutoff for a course with a rather small cohort or class in the specific degree. She left it first the entire time, change things below it every now and then - In the third round, she got an offer.NOTE TO ALL YOU KIDS WHO DIDN'T MAKE THE CUTOFF -
APPLY FOR THE COURSE ANYWAYS, ATAR'S ARE INFLATED FOR ENTRY, YOU CAN DEFINITELY GET IN IF YOU'RE EVEN 3-4 ATAR BELOW THE CUTOFF. There is NO harm in making your initial wanted course your first preference. It is SILLY to randomly change your preferences only because you missed out by 2-3 ATAR.
A few mates of mine have gotten in with 5+ below the requirements, this includes high-demand courses like Commerce @ UNSW. There are also a few people who got into Law @ USYD with like 98.
Point is, do not change your preferences even if you got below the requirement, you may never know your luck.
Congrats to all.
edit: so basically whats been said above93.75
HAAAAAAAA GOT 90 WITHOUT MATHS!!!
On a more a serious note, matrix predicted 94 so yeah it's quite accurate.
And a more serious question, i'm 0.65 away from a course @ USYD, is there any chance they will pity me and let me in?
Thanks for that - I thought my USYD law dreams were dashed as my ATAR was conveniently 0.05 below last year's cutoff.NOTE TO ALL YOU KIDS WHO DIDN'T MAKE THE CUTOFF -
