    What happens if you miss an exam?

    I've heard that if you feel sick in the actual exam room and you inform the supervisors (and its quite obvious that you arent actually feeling well) but contiune to sit the exam, in the case that your external exam mark is lower than your internal, your internal mark will be more heavily...

    I thought while the BOS sees the english adv adn and stn as the same, UAC actually scales them differently?

    Selective school scaling

    hahaha! baulko 6th sense :P not such a bad thing?!?! Hehe theres always a bit of friendly antagonism between ruse and baulko hey? Ruse puts trial estimates for scholarships etc I just get buggered though, when people get the impression selective schools give u bonus uai marks.

    English Standard/Advanced

    Ok heres how i understand it. While BOS will scale adv and stn the same, when UAC looks at ur marks to calculate your UAI, theu will scale it DIFFERENTLY. So a 80 in adv is better for your uai than a 80 in stn.

    What is UAI "prediction"?

    Uai prediction is always diffcult. First you need to have a good idea of what your final scaled marks would look like. (have a look at my reply at http://community.boredofstudies.org/showthread.php?t=73857&page=4) Then all the hard work is done for u by wonderful ppl like jm1234567890. Just...

    Selective school scaling

    Well the idea that selective school kids get bonus UAI points from scaling just isn’t true. There’s just a lot of complex mathematics behind it, the point is to standardize all the internal marks from different schools to make it (theoretically) fairer for everyone. I don’t think the BOS really...
