7th Sign, u need to realise that you're f*cked in the head.Srixon said:7th sign he is doing esl because he hasnt been in the country for as long and is more compinent in another language. There are plenty of people who come from other countrys and r usually the ones that usually gain the high uai's
That is the case because it is easier to attain a band 6 in English As A Second Language than in English (Standard). However, when it comes to scaling and the UAI, English (Standard) is better scaled than English As A Second Language. Keep in mind that English (Standard) and English (Advanced) are scaled a single course and English As A Second Language is scaled as a separate course.MarsBarz said:You dumbasses. ESL is much better than Standard English. Less than a handful of people get a band 6 in standard whereas 1% get a band 6 in ESL.
Thus if you are eligible for ESL, DO NOT DO STANDARD. Alternatively, if you are confident enough, you should do Advanced.
