I'm going this year and I got 98.65. That being said, I had USYD as my first preference + I got a state rank, so the invitation requirements could be a combination of those things. Also, I'm pretty sure it's a fairly private event, because the location isn't even published publicly afaik.

Nup, nothing. Sure you've got the right fb profile?

Can't see anything... :/

I would've used AAS...

I'm doing advanced! :)

Same. I hated it. :(

Tell me more!

Yeah, idk... You have to put your name in though, so they probably just cross-check it with whoever's on the invite list. Still, at least you had to put in your UAC number for the High Achievers Breakfast though.

MX1, but yeah, hopefully :D. What course do you want to do?

Ahh yep. Already looked into that!

That's open to everyone doing science, right? Just out of curiousity, what'd you do?

It's different, but I'm not sure if it's TSP only. The invite came in the mail with a few other things and it says "This event gives you the opportunity to find out more about Science at Sydney and our unique Talented Student Program (TSP). Come along to meet our leading researchers, world-class...

Anyone else get an invite?

Just got a letter inviting me to this, but all the info I can find about it is VERY vague. Anyone had experience?

This is true.

So how many BoSers (regulars, not randoms that have like 2 posts) state ranked this year? Just the 3?

nuffin'. To be honest, not having to pay rent and everything is good enough for me.

I was estimated mid to low 99s, ended up with 98.65. That being said, I think the estimates would've been accurate if I'd actually kept up the same work ethic during the leadup to the actual exams.

Yeah, true. I realise there's other pathways, it's just getting TSP in first year's the easiest, afaik.

Ahh right, in that case I'll probably still go to USYD - I wanted TSP for the research opportunities. for dat dere TSP UNSW's such a bitch to get to - train into the city and then a bus. Plus, USYD looks like hogwarts... can't beat that.
