[hyperbole]

uai: 95.6

[Haks]

UAI: 94.25 plus up to extra 5 coz of elite athletes scheme

Desired course: Commerce at USYD, cut off being 93.3 or sumthn last yr...think itll increase this yr...pretty confident ill get in

 

[starbaaa]

UAI: 81.00

Desired course: Speech Pathology @ UQ, cutoff 2005 = 94.75, so its not going to happen.
Second most desired course: Arts @ UQ, cutoff 2005 = 79.05, which is more realistic, but I sure hope it doesn't go up.

No matter what I get into, I'm going to try to transfer to Speech Pathology at UQ after a year. Unless I get into speech straight up. But thats not going to happen.

Medical Science is only 85 @ UNSW and you have a decent chance of getting into there.

[kaitie]

UAI: 91.45
Desired Course: 1. Vet Science @ Usyd (98.45) - not going to get that
2. B Applied Science(Speech Pathology) @ Usyd (87.10)

91.40

I really want to do b. international studies at USYD, for 91.15.

I'm over the cutoff by 0.25, but i'm kind of worried that it was a *relatively* low UAI last year only because it was a new course... that not as many people applied to it last year as they would this year? That the UAI will go up and i will only be accepted in the late round, if I am lucky?

If not, b. economic and social sciences at USYD for 90.90... or b. eco at UNSW or USYD, then international communication at Macquarie... all 90- 91.

 

[jgeo2000]

UAI 95.45
desired course:
B economics/ B laws 92.9
or
B finance/ B laws 92.9 at newcastle uni
and if i dont like doing the course i end up in outta those two then i'll try to get into B arts/ B medicine/ B surgery at UNSW - 95

 

[jgeo2000]

MY UAI: 90.45

DESIRED COURSE: Combined Law Degree (Newcastle) 92.90

But because I'm a local I get 4 extra points so its actually 88.9! I want to do Communications with it as the 'combined' part!!

hey even though you dont get the 4 point bonus u might be in luck this year cos admissions to newcastle uni have dropped and the lowest UAI cut off for combined degrees at newie is 90.

 

[Rekkusu]

Though just a reminder, If you do want to get into B Medicine/B Surgery course, you must have passed the UMAT, and the UMAT was wayy long ago, I've already finished my interview and got it, but lmao its a 7 year course, so I placed it in my really back preferences [Just to please my parents haha ).

It totally looks like alot of us are heading into courses which don't require high UAIs.

 

[jgeo2000]

yeah i know thats why i'm giving the combined degree a go and if i dont like it i'll sit the UMAT next year and TRY and get in.... i hope i like the combined degree though cos i dont really want to be at uni for 7 years

 

[Rekkusu]

Yeah totally...>< Good luck though for the UMAT, heading to prep courses are extremely useful, funnily enough, I find the UMAT to be much more easier and logical than the STAT tests.

Anyways, hope you do get into the combined degree!

 

[jack white]

good on you! DO what YOU want! In the long run, thats what matters

Agreed! Most of my "friends" are just infatuated with impressing others and making lots of moolah but I, on the other hand, are considering what I want to do and enjoy for the rest of my life, and I am not considering anything because of the possiblity that it may make my great auntie's doctor-son want to shake my hand with respect. Law is not my thing, and never has been, and why should a higher-than-expected UAI change that?

And, if I do end up hating the degree I have chosen, I guess I am up shit-creek.

 

[jack white]

Why would you be wasting your UAI points? Just because a course has a UAI cut-ff doesn't mean it'll necessarily get you anywhere in life. Good on you for your preference.

And good on you for being so 100% right.

 

[seremify007]

Some people are lucky in that what they want to do can also make a lot of moolah~

 

[KFunk]

UAI: 99.35
Desired course(s):
UNSW arts/medicine - (entrance marks are quite variable. I think last years median was 99.7 but interview/UMAT scores count for a lot)
or
USyd adv. maths - 98.8 (alternatively I'd happily do science / advanced science since I'd be looking towards a major in mathematics + a major in immunology/physiology, perhaps a minor in philosophy)

 

[seremify007]

Forgot to answer this topic I think (I posted something else);

Desired Course: UNSW B Comm (95.00 in 2005)
Actual UAI: 97.00

*fingers crossed*
Second preference: UTS B Business (90.15 in 2005)

 

[SSaint]

Bachelor of Economics at USyd - last year, 90.15

I got 94.05, so it should be alright

 

[kurupt8716]

is there any chance of me missing my course ( b sci/ b comm at usyd) which was 93.3 last year if i got 97.9 ??????

 

[Carnivour]

Already got all my offers, see below. But I'm an international.

UAI: 98.55

ANU: Arts/Law (95.00)
UQ: Engineering (no idea about cutoff)
Adelaide: Combined Law; also Science/Commerce

So I have some decision making to do, but funnily enough I think I'm going to reject all the offers because I have a sudden urge to travel. Especially to France, where I might even go to uni.
