My maths teacher really wants me to do 4 unit however I discovered that if I dont do 4 unit I will be automatically first in 2 unit (provided I am able to beat all the other 2u unit students) cause the top 15 people in 2 unit are all doing 4 unit (im ranked 6 in 2 unit).

So which seems better?
A chance to get first place at 2 unit and a golden medal thing that says im first
OR
A chance to do 4 unit and quite possibly boost my UAI up???????

Ext 2. It will contribute to your aggregate due to scaling, provided you're doing well in it. Shouldn't really drop a subject just because you can get a medal if you're doing well in that subject.

UAI is much more important than medals

Whats ruling out someone owning you.

But anyway, go for mX2, I mean, I think all MX2 students thought about this.

Do 4u, UAI is much more important than individual subject marks

Do 4u, it's a great course, and getting that higher UAI will allow you to have a wider choice of what you wanna study in uni.

Metal is tangible. You can melt it down, and sell the remains off.
You can't really sell a piece of paper with a UAI on it.

You do the math.

oh yeah you can.... I'll prove it to you when I get my UAI. A museum would buy it off me and for centuries the lowest UAI ever would be available for the public to see
