youll get in, a friend had much worse results and got in

How much weight do they put on Year 12 study scores when deciding who gets accepted? I have an 85% Avg across all yr 11 subjects except accounting- 100% on all SAC's through year- 99% on exam.

I applied to MUEP Maths, I think my yr 11 results are decent enough to get me in only what has got me worried is my 30 in English and 33 in ITA. Since these don't relate to Maths, would they hold alot of weight in acceptance. Am I likely to get in?

p.s. My Teacher comments on my reports are fantastic, especially my maths/physics and accounting teachers.

^ Did you get a B+ average in your non-maths subjects (including year 12 results)? If so, you'll probably get in. Some people get in without doing any year 12 subjects at all, so I don't think it'll matter a great deal.

Thanks Eriny. Yeah I did, for English I got an avg of 76% and same in ITA. So when they look at Yr 12 studies, they don't necessarily look at the study score but your SAC results?

Here are my average's:
English        76%
ITA             76%
Physics        90%
Methods       89%
GMA             88%
Accounting    100%

I guess the only thing I'm worried about is my Yr 12 study scores but if they look at your SAC marks and not your study score so much then that makes it much better.

I'm just so excited about next year and need some reassurance.

I think you will get in, I obviously don't know, but your year 11 results are good. For your year 12 subjects, what were your GA scores released by the VCAA?

English: B A C+
ITA: B+ A B

That should average out to around a B or B+ for English, and a B+ for ITA. And with your excellent teacher comments, I think you would definitely be able to get into MUEP maths. Good luck. :)

When do you know if you're accepted? :)

That's about the time we get out Uni offers. :S... But I honestly think you have nothing to worry about; you'll get in easily. ;)

Damo17, I don't think this is the first time I've told you this, but Monash has very lenient selection criteria when it comes to enhancement. =]

Yeah, I did remember that. Maybe I'm just posting here because it's one thing for me to think i'll get in but it's more comfort having others look at your results and tell you that you will get in. It makes me feel better and more excited about it. :D

Thanks Gonzo, all of this is really comforting.  ;D
No one has any idea at how bad I want to do MUEP Maths.

I don't think anyone would know for sure but I'll ask anyway. =]

When they look at your subject grade, do they just look at the overall achievement grade? For GMA, I got A+ for coursework, A+ for SAC 1, A for SAC 2 (all indicated on report) however in exam one I got a B+ and exam 2 I got a C+ (missed out on B by one mark - not indicated). This brought me down to a B+ =\

Same goes for my other subjects. I maintain an A/B+ throughout term 3 and 4 however because I was more focused on my 3/4, I didn't really study for the year 11 exams which brought my overall grade down.
