Point of getting 99.8+? (2 Viewers)

Better not be a private school.

Baulko?

 

[Aerath]

Yes it will. Inflated cutoffs, I know someone who got .25 below the cutoff and got into UNSW Law; no AAA or whatever.

There are alternative ways to get in.

My bad - yeah, I've heard of people getting lower than the cutoff at UNSW. Not really at USyd though, it's pretty rigid (except for exigent circumstances). In relation to transfer, as solooooooooo has referred to; it's quite difficult to transfer into USyd law. UNSW Law transfers seem to be.....easy, though.

nah, not sydney boys either.

Probs Baulko then?

 

[Bored_of_HSC]

Give us clues

(someone rename thread to "guess sidekicks school")

 

[Aysce]

nah, not sydney boys either.

IIRC, didn't 4 .95s come from NSB? So you're in NSB!

Who knew my school would be so underrated.

on topic, i don't really have an interest in med or law as much as commerce, so im not really worried about getting into courses.

also, i heard usyd med only accepts 8 people. is this true?

I thought they accepted about 10 people per year from their MedSci transfers or something like that?

you would have to be pretty masochistic to want to do medsci/med

 

[acemusic415]

Besides opportunities for scholarships and pride (and a sense of accomplishment), the difference is really tokenistic imo. So long as you get into your course, I don't think it really matters.

what.

 

[Sainteced]

what can i say? I'm a masochist

 

[Carrotsticks]

Real classy for a UWS med student.

 

[Sainteced]

why do med students have to be classy? why can't i just be a uni student?

 

[Carrotsticks]

Even for a uni student... heck even as a person, labeling yourself as a masochist isn't a very wise thing to do.

 

[Sainteced]

I am kidding, message.

 

[Riproot]

lol, not even.
Masochism is doing them at the same time.

HE GOES TO JAMES RUSE! ROLL HIM! QUICK!

Seriously? More than one on 99.95? Our max is like mid 99s...

Pfft, Ruse that's nothin'
Their 1st in the state in D.A. rankings streak will be ended by 2013

99.9- you get UNSW Scienta scholarship - $10k per yr, plus other stuff
99.95- USYD med. USYD scholarship

 

[drellafemes]

Bragging rights, scholarships, and some med/law courses.
