He probably didn't have enough data to compile it.

Or just couldn't be stuffed

ppl... when you put in your marks was it a complete guess? What marks did you put in? Your expected ones (guessed-what you wanted) or did you do it at the end of the year when you got your external mark and you knew your internal mark...and so you did the working out yourself and typed it in?

SAM was only introduced in about feb, that is after we got our results back. we put in our results from the bos, and posted here as laz was interested in how far off SAM was

 

[Jessisbored]

oooh ok...i get it now...damn SAM was very close! we'll see when i get mine...ahhh only how many more months? I don't want to know...

 

[Affinity]

SAM was 0.4 too generous to me

 

[aditya]

wow .4 thats heaps isnt it? i mean for me it would be heaps, depending how close ur uai is to wat u want... but thats scary...


so wen people say +.35 that means it was .35 higher than wat they actualyl got? yeh?

 

[Leap]

wow, it was spot on!

 

[Tommy_Lamp]

+2

 

[impossible_princess]

wouldnt SAM vary each year tho?? Because each year the scaling and marking and blah blah blah changes...

 

[TuRkish]

serz man how do i get this program 2 download?? sum1 tell me i need it

 

[Ragerunner]

You do not download it.

It is web based.

Go to the main web page and go to the SAM section.

Yes that is true, SAM can't predict the future, so doing one for 2004 is impossible, it can only be based on trends.

Unless you mean the scaling differences between previous years. In that case you have the option to select which year you want SAM to give you the UAI for.

Plus you get screwed because there's more band 6's every year, which means your agregate UAI will go down if you submit what you would have recieved in a previous year.
