They are not flexible, regardless of what people say. You arent getting into a 90 course with an 80 ATAR whether u like it or not. Transferring is absolute crap, and requires wasting years in crappy uni's and hoping for the best.I want to know if USYD and/or UNSW are flexible with the ATAR because I didn't as well as I hoped, but not so bad either.
Unfortunately, this is mostly correct. Unless they have a huge drop off in demand (which given the popularity of those two unis is unlikely) there isn't much chance of you getting in if you are a considerable amount away from the required marks. One or two is possible, especially with second/final round offers, but not much more than that.They are not flexible, regardless of what people say.

Yeah I cant stand the people who constantly say u can easily transfer courses if u don't get a high enough atar. You CAN but it won't be easy, fun, or worth the years u will spend in a crap uni.Unfortunately, this is mostly correct.

Transfers are unreliable. Possible, but shouldn't be taken as a guaranteed way of getting into the course.
Yea I was referring to transferring between unis, that would be a biatchI don't think it is wise to dismiss transferring so easily. If we're talking between different universities then yes i agree with you, it can be a shit fight. However transferring from one degree to another within a university is relatively simple providing you have fairly reasonable grades (dependent on the degree of course). If you're smart about it it is not by any means a waste of time, you simply take the same units that you would in the degree you plan to switch to and transfer the credit over when you do make the actual transfer, it is effectively like doing a year of the degree under a different name.
^ ThisIf you didn't get the ATAR required for an arts degree why are you even going to uni?
Hopefully he got high enough for that hahaYou only need like 72 for UNE...go there.
