Highest WAM you know of? (1 Viewer)

Was just wondering, what's the highest WAM you know of, from UNSW. Can be someone you know or just heard of.

My goal!

Apparently there's a guy named Isaac Lai that has 97 in Commerce.

My mate claims to know a few 90+'s in Engineering.

One of my friends was a low 90. The three of us went through honours class 1 together but it got him the uni medal too.

That is impressive. I'd call it a mixture of smart and effort

I've heard of people maintaining low 90's in med sci after 1st year but I havent heard of anyone graduating with a 90+wam. It's certainly possible though, just takes heaps of effort.

I think its just called pure nerd...LOL.

I think there's a point where you're just trying too hard or overachieving? No offence to ppl reading this with a 90+ WAM.

Like...say you get 95 WAM....so what? You could have done your 1st preference honours with just a 85 WAM. You could have spent more time with friends, family, on holiday...but instead your spend 3 or 4 years working your arse off getting a 95 WAM. I dont think its worth it...

If you are naturally smart (i know one girl) and you get 97WAM like her then of course i have nothing to say!
