Atm my atar prediction is 80 on the dot roughly. l know my external HSC exams have a big determing factor in my ATAR but just for this scenario we will go by that my ATAR will be roughly low 80's.

Which preference should l put higher? Diploma of engineering (UNSW) - ATAR (n/a), first time it is being implemented, l presume it is going to be 80-85 as there Bachelor of engineering course is 90.

OR

Bachelor of Engineering - 85 (UTS)

What is the pros and cons of doing diploma and bachelor? Main reason l want to do the diploma is the prestige of UNSW university.

Reply to zomie...for diploma is for one year, once you finish that one year you go directly into the 2nd year Bachelor of Engineering program.
