Look at it this way,
Everyone wants 50/50
People rarely get 50/50 (I could be wrong, in fact, I am wrong)
People who have worked hard for the 'entire' year, still wont get 50/50 (sorry, but the chances of getting 50 are ridiculous).
So, if you admit to 'aiming' for 50, that's fine.
But if you start claiming to have a '50/50' major work, then that's another issue.
See what I mean?
Person B: "I've done a lot of work, i've put in all the effort, but i'll be happy with 44 if i'm lucky"
Person A: "I think my major work is the best, so I'm going to get 50/50"
Now, when the results come back, person B might end up with 46 or 47 without even knowing it, whereas the one who is high and mighty with their 50/50 attitude, might end up getting 43 just for being 'overly' confident with their work and expectations.
The same can be applied to the UAI though,
Person B: "I've tried my best, so i'll be happy with 90.00"
Person A: "I'm the king of the world, 99.00 it is!"
HSC marks released
UAIs released
Person B: "96.55!!!!!! *over the moon*"
Person A: "Son of a ... only 87.50 WTF!"
You see my point, being too confident in Ext2 MW's might lead to a really, really huge fall and ego-collapse, whereas the quiet underachiever gets rewarded.
Having said that, I'm still aiming for a minimum of 35 (worse case scenario) and possibly 38 to 42, 43 as the best possible mark, because I don't think I deserve 45+ because my work isn't "the best" (unless the examiners disagree and assign 48, which would change my mind )
hehe

Oh, gotcha.
I'm a male by the way.
Don't girls call other girls "cows" or "bimbos"
What didn't you like about my explanation/example.
I liked it
"I am the king of the world... 50/50 I will kick all your asses I am man, hear me roar?"
That's the kind of attitude which will get you 30/50 lol!
(not that I have it... i'm just using it as an example, see my above post)

LOL don't take it so seriously and literally truly-in-bliss!

I wasnt saying that you were the king,
i was saying that it is the general attitude that egomaniacs like to have,
i was taking the mickey out of "i am woman, hear me roar"
also, about the ass kicking, that was in reference to the "50/50" people lol.
