Honestly. Every estimate thread I look at people are worrying about their high eighties to high ninetys results! Surely there are a percentage of students that will get lower UAIS than that!

Just so I know I'm not alone is there ANYONE who ISN'T getting a high eighty to ninety?

ATARs are ranks. So 90% of the people who started year 7 in 2004 will not get an ATAR in the 90s or even get an ATAR. I think that's how it works.



But on here... I think we're the minority if we're not aiming for or going to get in the 90s. I'm with you, I have no idea what ATAR I'll be getting, but it won't be in the 90s. <90 ATAR ftw. Lol

LOL, says the guy who does Bachelor of Arts.
Says the guy who does Standard English. Before you've seen the contribution made by scaredytiger in the English forums, don't assume he/she is an unqualified judge.

Don't assume she is a qualified judge based on her intellectual capabilities in just English.

And whats wrong with doing standard English? I'm not going to go on and do a humanities orientated course in uni, so i could care less.

lol i doubt anyone aiming for something low would talk about here on BOS. It's only the smart people that come here to boast or rather share their experiences and marks => and that is why u see so many estimates with 90

I wasn't attacking the fact that you're doing Standard English, I was attacking your standing to judge scaredytiger.

Haha. Did he delete his post?

And I'm female, btw.
Yeah, the offending post was deleted.

I wasn't judging her, i found it sad that she insulted Shadowdude.

Sorry for the post. But she also judged Shadowdude, what if he has a forte like she does in English? Would that not make him smart? I was just sticking up Shadowdude.

Dearie, I do Arts because it is what I want to do.

I'm really bored, so here we go.
I was accelerated in Mathematics since primary school, only stopping due to moving interstate twice within a year (resulting in me skipping a grade) and missing two thirds of the Preliminary year. At the same time I picked up Physics, without having done Grade 10 Science.

Seriously, grow up.

My bro does Physics instead of year 10 science. It's not unusual. Just saying... not insulting or anything.
