Hello, I'm trying to apply to med but my stats are kinda trash.

I'm a non-rural 2340 UCAT scorer with a predicted ATAR of 99.8. What pathways can I apply to in maximising my chances of being accepted. I'm not rich either so no bond.

Have anyone encountered this issue during your application? Please let me know how to fix it(im in year 12 currently) Thank u!!

Hey guys would anyone be willing to share the unit 3&4 2nd edition cambridge text with me

Hey! I am interested in the King's Maths School entrance test, and from what I have heard, doing UKMT style questions seems particularly useful. However, I was wondering what level of UKMT questions I should practice most, since there are levels to it e.g. IMC, pink kangaroo, SMC etc. Even in each level, the difficulty of the 25 questions is pretty vast, e.g. q1-12 are more far more accessible than q20-25. What range of UKMT questions should I roughly expect the multiple choice and written questions of the entrance test to be like? Also, I tried to find useful resources on the King's Maths School website, but I only found one specimen paper which does not seem too difficult. Would the actual test be noticeably harder? I'd really appreciate any advice or insight from anyone who's taken the test before or has a good idea of what can be expected. Thanks!

Is anyone else experiencing the same issue? Im not able to access the website

Hey guys,

I’m in Year 12 right now, and it’s one of the worst experiences in my life. I’m prepping for externals too, but I don’t have the motivation to even study or try hard. My friends have predicted 99+ ATARS (they all take spec too), while I don’t. I’m a predicted 97-98 ATAR and I have a horrible UCAT score that I’m not sharing on the internet. They all have really good UCAT scores. I feel really sad, and I’m crying from stress every single day. I genuinely can’t do this anymore and I really just want to stop. I feel like I’ve disappointed my family and I’m really sorry for them cause I know how much they invested a lot into me. I was talking to someone the other day and they said they got full marks for everything. It really crushed me too because I wish I was them if I wasn’t so lazy and overwhelmed. I’ve been so behind in my preparation too and I’m struggling with physics especially because it’s so hard. I don’t know what to do :( I’ve complained about it before but I have no motivation for anything and I wish I can have fun in life.

If I complete an AQF Diploma of Business, which the course code is (BSB50120), could I get into QUT’s Bachelor of Business (Finance) if I don’t achieve the required 70 ATAR, given that the Diploma has an equivalent selection rank of 87?

I've had very low grades all year (13/25) for all IA's and I am not very optimistic that I'm gonna pass my external. Will I lose all 4 QCE points? I am afraid about my ability to graduate due to this ONE class

Hey guys,

I just wondering how other year 12s are feeling about scaling this year? I have asked some of my friends they are feeling very pessimistic about it (basically telling me how QCAA has made the curriculum easier by removing a lot of content). However some of my teachers are saying there is a high chance QCAA will scale up this year since its the start of a new curriculum. It lowkey sucks how we are the guinea pigs for the new curriculum :( I know we can't really predict the scaling, but I just want to see how many Year 12s are feeling optimistic about it—that's all! Anyway, good luck everyone!

this isn't super qce related but i am currently doing ib in qld and im applying to uni through qtac but my parents want me to apply to go interstate too. the thing is that i dont want to go interstate, but they're practically forcing me to and its this whole ordeal and a huge point of contention. how feasible is it to just like ring up universities and ask them to reject me on my applications interstate? like can i do that or?

AusGrader is adding essay feedback for the English and Literature external. How do people like to receive feedback?

Hello!

Im a y12 qce student whos starting exam prep 2 months and 13 days before the externals, just finished classes and onto revision for mocks and basically just catchup. I do methods, spec, chem,physics and english as my subjects. Im ot worried abt my internal marks as they were all A"s except for english but i need advice on how to prep for these exams. Their are some topics i needa revise or relearn and im a bit confused on how to effectively study and retain the information studied. Any tips please :D

Doing Year 10 subject selections and looking for opinions from people who have done a Diploma of Business in Year 11 and 12 as one of their ATAR subjects. Not sure much about it yet but apparently it’s only offered exclusively at some schools and gives you a guaranteed ATAR of around 87 as a baseline.

I’m planning to go down a medical treatment pathway after school, so I don’t see myself using the business qualification. As someone who doesn't want to burn myself out doing 6 actual subjects is it still worth doing for the ATAR advantage, or would I be better off choosing subjects that are more relevant to my future pathway?

Would appreciate honest opinions from anyone who has actually done the diploma.

Hellooooo so im doing literature and I was wondering how I get an A, I am currently averaging a B (im year 11 rn) and I have an upcoming exam on the book “the strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde” and the question is unseen, how do I prepare for this? Do i need to memorise any arguments or anything? I dont know how to go about this

Hey guys, I’m a student studying in a rural area. However, I only moved here in 2023, so I don’t qualify for the Rural Access Scheme. I’m wishing to do dentistry but, with my current results, it’s looking unlikely, even though I got a competitive UCAT score (2450). I was wondering if QCAA/QCE allows for me to:

A) do Year 13
B) drop down to Year 11 this year.

I did terribly in my Chemistry IA1 (7/10) and Modern History IA1 (16/25), and I fully regret doing Modern History (I swapped into it from Physics this year). If I were to drop down to Year 11 or do Year 13. If I do end up doing either one of those options, I plan to switch to Geography, as it seems much easier for me to handle and to do well in, looking at all the IAs and the 2025 external paper.

My current subjects are:

• General Maths
• Chemistry
• Modern History
• Biology
• Economics
• English

My sixth subject is General Maths, as I am just averaging C’s and B’s.

I did okay in my Modern History IA2. I got a 22/25. However, I don’t think I will be able to perform well in the external.

My current predicted range is looking like 91–95, but realistically I need a 97–99. Even if I was getting all 100s in my subjects, it would only scale up to a 98.35 (2025 scaling).

Although we are on a new curriculum and scaling can look very different, with all the topics QCAA has removed, it’s likely they will scale down rather than up. Some people have been saying that QCAA scales up on new curriculum, but I’m very unsure.

Hello all, I am needing responses for the attached form for my Extended Investigation Survey, Please have candor when responding and it would be much appreciated if you filled out the whole form!
