Fair enough...Done.

Riviet: 92.8 alektorophobia: Congratulations on your bro's success. It's true, uai doesn't always determine how you go in life. The purpose of this thread is not to pay out those with low uai's, I just want to know why people with <30 uai's don't get their actual score.

Dude, how about you get a life rather than going out of your own way to tell someone to "get a life".

Haha, I also wasted 1 week on this game in September this year: http://infrarift.net/index.php?id=pickup.htm And still my highscore (Auto Theft) remains undefeated: http://infrarift.net/index.php?id=pickupscore.php

I'm asking this question out of curosity. Why do people with uai's of "30 or less" not receive their actual uai? I have a few theories. 1) To spare the student's anguish 2) Because UAI's that low aren't worth the time and effort to calculate. But does anyone know the real reason?

^Lol -> hell yeah, but timing is important. In the morning, you lose some energy for the rest of the day. At night, it soothes the day's stress and helps you get to sleep faster. Back on topic: Online RPGs, and other forums and shit totally screwed me over (92.80 at a selective school)...

Sydney Tech- top guy in my school got 100. Making tech proud. Oh yeh -> not even James Ruse can beat that.

Everyone makes mistakes, and I've been corrected (if you had bothered reading the other posts). I find your rhetorical question idiotic.

You've got 4 options: 1) Do a uni course with a low UAI cutoff and take that career or transfer to your desired course. However this can be difficult, seeing as you'll need to score exceptionally well to transfer. 2) Do tafe, yup, the long path to uni. 3) Repeat year 12 at school...

Lol, all these 99+ bastards showing off. Just some trivia, if you choose Latin Cont, Classical Greek Cont, Maths ext 1, Maths ext 2, Adv Eng. And you get 89 in english and 100 in the rest - you'd get a 100 UAI (SAM Calculation). Weird- no premier's award yet a 100 UAI.

Aggregate = Total of the HSC results for your best 10 units. Percentile = The percentage of students you beat (in this case, your year 10 cohort).

http://www.uac.edu.au/pubs/pdf/2005-Table-A8.pdf Thanks rench. But the aggregates isn't completely accurate. I got a uai of 92.8 and an aggregate of 413 but the aggregate corresponding to 95 is 404.1 But the logical explanation was that I screwed up Adv English (73). wich drarg meh doun...

Okay thanks guys. So it's a percentile out the students in your year 10 cohort. Interesting, so my UAI of 92.80 is more like top 15% (depending on the yr 10 drop out stats) of HSC students, as opposed to the top 7.2% which I initially thought.

I've heard some people say the UAI is a percentile-.i.e if you got a 90.00 UAI, you would have beaten exactly 10% of the state. Is this true? According to one source- 10 000 students scored a UAI of 90+ out of a total of 65 000 students. So I'm confused.

Yup, I'm happy! 92.80 That gets me into Advanced Science (88), Medical Science (85) and a wide range of Engineering courses (85) at UNSW. The only thing I regret is slacking off because my friends are averaging 95.
