    Scholarships

    BIT is a coop right? It means that if she's guaranteed a position if she gets 90, but even if she doesn't they will consider her based on the strength of her interview/application. So its a case by case thing, and they accept people from 80s-90s, but obvious people with lower atars would have to...

    Trial or HSC

    Haha, what? This is wrong on so many levels.

    How will doing low scaling subjects affect my ATAR?

    No, the reason you do lots of questions in maths is because the level of application can get extremely difficult, and you have to be able to apply the basic mathematical concept to much harder questions. So the work in ext2 is related to the fact that the standard of questions can get extremely...

    How will doing low scaling subjects affect my ATAR?

    +2 And you said on another thread you spend 60% of your studying time on 1/4 of a subject.... So if its as easy as you say it is, why do you still need to put so much effort into it? By all means, do maths if you're good at it (especially 2U because its still quite simple) , but don't do maths...

    Projectile Help!

    Second question: ii) - For the plane, x'=U (horizontal velocity) - Integrating gives x= Ut + AB (Because at t=0, the shell is at position B) - Equation 1 - Construct a right-angle triangle, with angle alpha, height h . - tan(alpha) will give you h/AB, rearrange to get AB= h/tan(alpha) - sub...

    Projectile Help!

    Okay, for the first question: ii) - Sub p=x into x=vtcosa - Rearrange to make t the subject (Equation 1) - Sub h=y into y= -5t^2vtsina (Equation 2) - Sub the value of t for Equation 1 into Equation 2 Then if you play around with it, it will come up with the answer (but tell me if you need a...

    How will doing low scaling subjects affect my ATAR?

    http://www.uac.edu.au/documents/atar/2010-ScalingReport.pdf Page 35 onwards shows hsc marks, scaled marks, maximum marks for each subject.

    How will doing low scaling subjects affect my ATAR?

    Anyway, just to offer an alternate perspective (don't hate me for this guys, because its actually true), if you're aiming for a really high atar, say 99+, then scaling would actually be quite a big factor. Hypothetically, because i don't know the exact percentages, But say for chemistry, the...

    How will doing low scaling subjects affect my ATAR?

    No, if you do ext2 maths, your ext1 and ext 2 marks gets doubled, so it effectively counts for 2 units each. You don't do the 2u exam

    What do you think of these subjects? Questions on ATAR and English levels?

    Noooooooooooo way! Doing standard english when you are capable of doing well in english will in no way get you higher marks! You should do the highest level of english which you are capable of. Its actually easier to get much higher marks in english advanced if you are good at english, because...

    The weight of external scaling..

    Your own external mark will not affect your internal mark. Whether you do good or bad in externals, that is the mark you will get (excluding individual scaling for subjects, which isn't relevant in your question). So this is the external mark which will make up 50% of your entire hsc mark. BUT...

    atar guesemaite

    Hahaa, but if you're not trolling, UWS law only requires 90, and i've heard the actual course is quite good, in terms of being quite practical, and not super theoretical like some of the other unis. And UWS gives away bonus points like candy. You get 5 bonus atar points just for living in the...

    Bachelor Engineering/Commerce

    I'm not sure about actuary, but i know people doing accounting/finance coops who have done internships at several of the best firms in Australia, And they pretty much give you a pending job offer for when your graduate. So it would be the best actuarial firms in Australia sponsoring you to go...

    Bachelor Engineering/Commerce

    Yeah, macq has engineering/commerce- but i'm not sure about actuary. http://www.engineering.mq.edu.au/degrees/undergrad/double/ And UNSW is super generous with bonus points. Like i think you need 97ish to get into commerce and/or engineering, but you get up to 5 bonus points just by getting band...

    Are you applying for the UNSW actuary coop? Because if you're really set on actuary, then getting a coop would actually pretty much guarantee you a job

    Bachelor Engineering/Commerce

    Why don't you just do a commerce double major? Like actuary with economics, finance or accounting. Or does it not work, cos for actuary you need to do some specific subjects instead of some of the regular commerce subjects

    Transferring after second year into law

    I read on their website that transfers are based on 50% ATAR, 50% uni results. And i think it said over 95, and distinction average to be considered or to have a good chance to get inn

    with an atar of 99.95 can you get a scholarship for commerce at UNSW?

    Yeah, Scientia you will get automatically if you get 99.9 atar and is for any course you want (except maybe med) Co-op will not be automatic, that involves interviews and is quite a different course
