I'm curious on how English will impact my UAI. What would I get for this-

Subject - Ranking - Aligned Mark

IPT - 1/27 - 94%
Maths 2U - 2/19 - 95%
Maths 3U - 1/3 - 80%
Engineering Stud. - 1/12 - 94%
Physics - 1/10 - 89%
Business Studies - 1/54 (27 if its class only) - 96%
English Adv - 33/39 - 62% <-ouch

Thanks :)

To get a half decent UAI you'll really need to work on your English.
Your other marks seem to be ok, but the English will affect you badly.
Also, 2008 school rank pl0x.

90 tops, is my estimate... assuming you keep up the high marks in your other subjects, and assuming they are a similar level of difficulty to actualy HSC exams.

from what ive read it is reasonably accurate.

^Nope.

You won't be able to get much out of SAM because SAM is specifically designed to estimate UAI based on the HSC results.

agreed.

but in saying this; are the estimations in this thread any more accurate?
if he realised that the high marks he gets in class wont be the same in HSC externals; he would lower marks by a couple of points based on his school ranking. Then SAM will do the rest.

Yeah, you are right.

No one can give the OP a concrete estimation because we don't know anything about him/her.

The best bet would be to ask school study coordinator how the school usually performs. Based on that, study coordinator can make an estimation on what the OP would get in terms of HSC results - that might be marginally more accurate.

It's honestly not all thast accurate, no more accurate than any of our estimates.
*shrugs*
Like Namu said, no one can really give a concrete estimate.

Can someone please tell me logical reasons for why English is compulsory? If someone does brilliantly in every other subject, but only adequate in English, their UAI is impacted more than I think it should be...

Neg. It's pretty stupid in my opinion. You stop learning grammar and the basics of the language by year 7. Explain to me how writing a comparative essay is that relevant with most current occupations.

nah, that doesnt sound right. people spoke various languages well enough before writing was even invented

you have to do english because the syllabi for years 7-10 dont teach you crap, at least nothing worth remembering
