    IS the scaling really worth it? How hard can it be?

    That's my point exactly it's the students more than the course. If you're capable of a HD in 1141 you should be able to get one in 1131 as well. After all the only scaling is on half of the final exam (its 2/4 questions I called and found out) however if you're capable of a HD in 1141 you should...

    IS the scaling really worth it? How hard can it be?

    Wouldn't this mostly be due to the fact that the more math inclined students do 1141 where as there are people who have done 2u taking on 1131. Clearly most students who can get a HD in 1131 would be doing 1141 as well so that explains the fail and HD rates. I chose to do 1131 simply because...

    MATH1131 Lectures - can't decide between lecturers

    How are Dr DD Angell and Dr CK Mak? I only picked based on times to fit as much availability for work as possible and didn't even look at who was going to be teaching what.. Hopefully they're not too bad or else I'll regret this.

    Pick your engineering field with biomedical UNSW

    Thank you guys so much! Was just making sure that they didn't change it to a common first year as I don't want to miss the seng workshops and such.

    Pick your engineering field with biomedical UNSW

    Just noticed that I can't pick my field of engineering when I select it as it only says B Eng (Bioinformatics/Chemical/Computer/Electrical/Mechanical/Mechatronic/ Software/Telecom)/Master of Biomedical Eng - full time at UNSW - start date 03 Mar 2014 Is there a common first year? according to...

    Software and biomedical engineering? at UNSW

    Ideally I want to do software engineering and was thinking for the extra year at UNSW I could just do the double degree and cover both areas of study which both seem interesting. My question is does biomedical engineering require any physics as the software combination with it does not do it...

    Medicine interviews already passed

    I wasn't aware that the MBBS interviews and application was so early (my fault for not looking into the system) anyone else in the same boat? Was hoping to apply to MBBS at UWS just to leave it as an option.

    Share your 2013 HSC results here

    3u: 91 4u : 87 Advanced english : 87 Chemistry : 82 Physics : 79 (why couldn't you just be 80) Overall pretty happy, matrix is predicting 95.00 exactly but I highly doubt itll be over 94. Expecting something more like 92-93

    ATAR estimate (my apologies for another one)

    3u: 91 4u : 87 Advanced english : 87 Chemistry : 82 Physics : 79 (why couldn't you just be 80) Thank you in advanced atar calculators are giving me estimates way too high (94-95) so I wanted to get a more accurate estimation here hopefully.

    Post-HSC casual job at a local club (requires 18+)

    Sorry to hear that guys managed to get a job myself with 0 experience but it does depend on the club and how popular it is.

    Question!!

    Not sure if this is true but I heard that all english marks are able to be compared meaning a 90 in Standard is mean't to be on par with a 90 in advanced and they both scale the same afterwards (in terms of what this means for your ATAR). This is why there is so few band 6's in standard as...

    Post-HSC casual job at a local club (requires 18+)

    Just thought i'd make a thread discussing a job at a club since no one seems to really think of it. Currently working in gaming where I pick up empty glasses and ashtrays and it's paying $23.15/hr for casual (27 or so on saturdays, 32 on sundays and 41 on public holidays) with the base rate for...

    Atar estimate on final ranks

    Hey guys I go to a school ranked ~300 but it varies on the year. Ranks: Advanced English 3/40 Chemistry 2/11 Physics 3/9 MX1 2/8 MX2 2/3 Expecting to B6 MX1 but not much else I think. Estimated raw marks for externals: ~80/100 advanced ~66/100 for chemistry ~70/100 for physics ~56/70 for MX1...
