    *uac main offers thread

    Demand and supply ATAR cut-offs

    Uni's often inflate the cut-off just slightly. Whether it's to look more prestigious or something, who knows. But many courses at many uni's do it. Sometimes people will get in just very, very slightly under the cut-off.

    what are the chances of me getting in?

    University ATAR cut offs

    the thing is the cut off for that course in your sig is so high already, it can't really fluctuate that much. although i have similar concerns about the course i wanna do. best not to worry, because it'll probably be fine. fingers crossed for the both of us. :)

    is it too late to change my favourite course into No1 preference course?

    no, i mean like why do people get early offers in rounds other than the main round.. i thought it was just if you were non-year 12 or disadvantaged or something...

    Macquarie University

    i got a few friends that go there... they seem to like it, but they're doing accounting, which MQ is good for. a nice area, although a bitch to get to from where i am, and a good social life i guess (conception day, etc).

    Parents reaction to ATAR?

    lol yeah i got the same thing. i guess people at work don't really know you as well, i don't think they actually realised that i can be kind of smart.

    How do main round offers/preferences work?

    in regards to no. 1 - no, you aren't disadvantaged. say hypothetically someone got 97 for their atar, put a course that had a cut off of 98 as preference no. 1 first, and then a course that had a cut off of 96 for no. 2. you would be given first priority for a place in the course for preference...

    Arts majors at Sydney uni

    Okay, well I'm looking to do Media and Comm. at Sydney next year, and I'm really confused by the whole Part A/B majors thing. Do we just choose one other major or two?
