Poll to see how smart bos is.

LOL
I reckon BOS is pretty smart

Is it true that 16 percent of people get over 90 anyways? I heard that somewhere and was like :S :S

YAY I GOT 96.2

 

[erm]

should be more divisions after 90+

 

[dp624]

I'm not sure of the figure but it is higher than expected, but keep in mind it still is top 10 percent considering it also includes people who left in year 10.

Do you want to crawl through hundreds of posts about tabulate/calculate percentages for everyone's UAI?

 

[4unitfreak]

I got 90.00, so I suppose that's pretty good.

 

[NorthRiversMatt]

45 of people having uai of 90+? That doesn't make sense in rankings!

Yes it does. That just basically means that people on BOS are genereally far better than the state.

 

[NorthRiversMatt]

Like what spending their time on internet instead of studying and crap? Still doesnt make sense!

Lol

BoS is a great website that equips its members with some extra knowledge that may prove extremely useful. I got all my maths tips around the threads on BoS and found other extremely good knowledge that are currently helping me with a lot of stuff. Without BoS, I wouldn't be fully aware of the scaling system, UAI, alinging and etc. And many people you see take advantage of this system for their UAI benefit.

All in all, BoS generally helps people even though it takes some time off their study time. So by coming here on BoS, people actaully learn more. And usually people come here when they procrastinate so they make most of their procrastination too.

Yes but why there are more people having uai of 80 to 99 than 50 and below?

because as i said, bos people are generally smarter.

And it is also possible that people who got less than, say , 50 couldn't be bothered to post on a poll - because they don't want to keep reminded of their presumably poor UAI.

BOS naturally attracts people who are interested in their schooling and who want to perform academically. (hence most 80-100)

Do you think anyone who gets a UAI of ≤50 would care about their performance enough to post on a forum about it?
