    EARLY ENTRY (?)

    That would depend on the early entry scheme through which you are applying. It is important to note that, unlike UTS and WSU, USyd does not have early entry schemes, except the Early Offer Year 12 (E12) Scheme (which I will link below), but that does not consider your Preliminary marks.
