business studies scales alright because there is so much stuff you need to know in this course and plus you gotta be good at report and essay writing.

actually business studies doesn't scale that well.

but business studies can get you a good uai.
with an average mark of 88 (was disappointed), i got a uai of 90.45

so its still possible.
and another thing, scaling doesn't mean crap if u do good or bad at it.

eg: physics scales good. but if u do bad at it, that won't do anything to save you (unless it was a hard test) ,,, same with 3u maths.

while subjects like business studies or something, actually scales down (if my memory serves me well),, but this doesn't matter if u get a good mark with it.

its all relative.,, things in the hsc are.

if you want to avoid scaling, then get 1st in internal and 100 or as close as you can in external. That way you won't be touched in scaling but still are capped at something like 99/100 for business. So yes you can get a 100UAI with business studies. I'm hoping for a 98/99:D

you should be able to easily. Business Studies is easy, you dont have to think, all you gotta do is memorise lists... its not like economics where you have to think about it.

It's definitely possible. Just study really hard and try to get an internal rank of atleast 5th or above. I got a UAI above 90 and I did business studies.

Hmm.. Business Studies is really easy if you apply yout time and knowledge to the textbook. It has alot to remember, especially "Influences affecting this and that" But once u memorised or have a key knowledge of the textbook, you wont go wrong. I did Business Studies and it was one of my fav subjects.. or maybe it was just the kick arse teacher. But hey, i did Business and i got a band 6 (96), and got a UAI >90. So yes it is possible to get a good UAI even if u do business studies. This can also be said for other subjects in which are "down" scalers. Just apply yourself and youll see.
Good Lucks
