wow. you got yours so early. well done:)
they said i won't find out till early-mid jan o_o
-
Good job. I still haven't handed my semester 2 report in (woo I finally got it today). But yeah UMEP people are supposed to find out mid-January.

do you mean MUEP? because that's what i meant :P
i just handed my semester 2 report in as well.
so hopefully we will find out soon anyways.

UMEP - UoM Extension...

im thinking i should have applied for UMEP maths....

Nah I meant UMEP (UoM's program). MUEP's fees are a bit much and they didn't offer the subject I wanted.
-
ah okay sorry, when you said meant to come out mid-jan i thought you were talking about MUEP since apparently UMEP comes out around now
and same here with me and UMEP (didn't have my subject).
yay enhancement studies they look so fun. goodluck everyone with getting in!
-
I've applied for MUEP Accounting, haven't gotten any notification yet though.
-
Guessing it came early then - seems like everyone else hasn't gotten a response yet either. o-O

You get yours by mail?
-
I'm guessing certain subjects were finalized faster?
Or it could be that the OP was accepted faster because he has a 50 in classics.

I was thinking the latter, but I doubt it.
-
i'm sure they go through every candidate one by one, reading through the reports and ticking 'accepted' or not and then moving on.
those who give in reports later are on the bottom of the pile.... hope we are soon haha
^ just guessing :P
-
I'm gradually becoming more anxious about receiving an offer as time passes, being that my prospects at a 99.95 are crushed without it. Hope it comes soon.
I submitted my application with reports about 1 week before the deadline, so following your theory, it can't be that far down (assuming you're right, of course).
-
just got my offer earlier today for enhancement chem at monash:)
hopefully i won't have to decline >< stupid school
-
I really hope I get into physics...

that's a joke yeah? your already in. no question.

Congrats. Why would you have to decline the offer?
I'm patiently waiting..

ah because my school might force me too cos i'm most likely going to do englang outside of school
-
They have a maths prereq as well though.
But apparently you can skip that if you did well enough in the Physics NQE....
-
Don't worry about it to much as long as you received an acknowledgment letter you should rceive an outcome letter in the new year. Remember it's the holiday period so I would expect most would know there outcome by mid Jan. Sutti
-
about 2 more weeks till UMEP results come out... argh.
btw, to get the 5.5 increment... do I have to obtain > 80% in my total score or do i have to beat 80% of all the students enrolled in the subject?
Also, if all students... r we only against the year 12s or are we also against the uni students doing that subject?
-
I'm a pretty sure that it is above 80% average in all your assessments. Rankings and stuff like that won't be relevant.
-
I'm a pretty sure that it is above 80% average in all your assessments. Rankings and stuff like that won't be relevant.
High increment (5.5) means you're above 80th percentile/top 20% of all students enrolled in the subject. So the increment is actually based on rankings and it's against every student including those at uni that does the subject.
-
hmm so what percentage mark would be 80th percentile?...and against uni students?? wahh
-
refer to brightskys post
-
refer to brightskys post
yeah i was pretty sure it was based on your score, 80%+ (so HD) to get the 5.5 and 60~80% is 5.0.
It says this on their Enhancement Studies Brochure.
-
Ok so for UMEP on the site it says to get 5.5, the results achieved are: 'Above 80th percentile (top 20% of all students enrolled in the subject)'. So 80th percentile just means HD?
-
^ oh yeah i remember seeing that on the unimelb website.
but for monash it says its based on average grade.
i doubt they would be different, how strange><
-
Still, 80th percentile against Uni students sounds scary.
-
^ I think so, really. I contacted the university about it once and they said that they didn't necessarily publish data like that because students aren't really graded on a scale. I think, at least in first year subjects, H1s tend to go to the top 8-10%, so you might also be okay with a H2A.
-
I've been told, last year at Scotch College(Chemistry) almost all students got HD's.
-
To be fair, Scotch chemistry students are generally pretty pro. :p
-
^ yay that's exciting for me as I will probs be doing it at scotch :D
-
LOL I think the figures are boosted by the fact that the top Scotch students take Olympiad Chemistry in year 11.
-
Is it too late to apply for this?
Damn, the application closing dates have already passed. Is there any hope I could still get in?
It just hit me that Extension Chemistry would be of much more value and interest to me the VCE Physics.

sorry there isn't any hope now. the applications closed in late november, and now the offers are being released..
-
^^^
Oh well. :(
Wish I knew before it was too late, but it never would have happened because I wasn't even enrolled anywhere in November.
Best of luck to all. :)
-
There is an accounting MUEP?
-
^ yerp
-
so badly wanted to do extension maths :'( gdluck to u all
-
Yea if I would hve new bout extention accounting I would have worked in yr 11 to get marks. But j only found out bout this like 2 weeks ago
-
How have MUEP offers been sent? Mail or e-mail?
-
How have MUEP offers been sent? Mail or e-mail?
e-mail, saying how to set up our new monash accounts & about orientation day.
there's apparently another letter coming (by mail) that is much more formal.
-
Thanks, does anyone know if they sent an email if they reject your application?
-
Got my offer for MUEP Accounting today.
-
UMEP offers come in mid-jan?
-
Between the 13th and the 20th.
Ahh, I really want to find out ASAP...
-
Yessss! Got my offer for MUEP Chemistry just then. Relief... =D

well done to everyone getting their extension programs ! :D
-
theyre sent out today :o so the majority will receive on Friday.
-
hey andrewloppol i applied for both, got my muep acceptance email for criminal justice yesterday and waiting to hear back from melb uni...
-
got my muep acceptance email for criminal justice yesterday and waiting to hear back from melb uni...
Does that mean if you haven't got a email for criminal justice yet you wont get in??
-

No, I don't think so. You should contact them, via email, and confirm they received your application. Did you send your application in right at the end of the deadline? I think they have been working in the order they were received. They also said all offers will be made by this Friday.
-
Ok... im just extremely impatient.... and so many people on this site have already heard....
I also thought that if chocolate05 had got a confirmation email for criminal justice that all the criminal justice would be sent at the same time...
I dont remember when i handed my form in but it was before the deadline
-
YAY got into UMEP Biology :D!
Now the big decision.... which Uni.. MUEP or UMEP :S????
UMEP BIOLOGY :D
-
UMEP CHINESE :) :D :2funny: :laugh: :smiley6600:
-
YAY got into UMEP Biology :D!
Now the big decision.... which Uni.. MUEP or UMEP :S????
UMEP BIOLOGY :D
Any particular reason why :P? Coz we'll get to hang haha?
Yes :P :P :P
And Melb Uni is really really awesome :D :D :D.
Apparently there is this lecturer called Dawn Gleeson who from other people's opinions have told me that she was a good lecturer. If they didn't attend their classes at their school thingy or whatever, they would just download the lectopia audio recordings and listen to those :P (not sure if they still have lectopia for biology but they did in 2007).
I personally have never done Biology at Melb Uni though hehe :P
But really, the choice is up to you :D
-
UMEP PSYCH.
SUCCESS.
-
congrats people who got into UMEP with the offers that just came.
andrew- if i were you i'd do bio with UMEP as you get to see what uni's like (slightly, as the enhancement centres are the same but still) rather then doing it all on your own. gogogo melbourne!
-
woohoo got into muep linguistics as well!! now only trouble is deciding on whether to go monash or melb...
couple of questions so all answers are welcome...
was wondering if i go to melb do i have to give up one of my five subjects??
and also do we just rock up to any stream or do we have to give notice to which classes we'll be attending (eg. LO1/01, LO1/02)
would ring up but their offices close weekends i think?
-
UMEP Maths ^^
chocolate05: You don't have to give up a subject, you can do Uni Subject in conjunction with the subjects your have; however you can give up a subject if you want. And for classes, I'm pretty sure there's only one class per venue? At least that's the way it is for Maths.
-
for everyone who is jealous of me going to tafe, i am jealous of all of you who are doing extension studies XD

For lectures you can rock up to any stream because it's not like they would be taking rolls since there'd be heaps of people. For tutorials you have to actually choose a class/stream and stick with it.

I recommend UoM :P
So I get to meet you
-
do u get an email if you didnt get in :(
-
your mail/email is prob late, i'm sure you'll get in with those scores
:D
-
Will the extension classes be mixed with both extension and university students?
Or is it just extension students?
-

if your doing extension studies at an enhancement centre then it's just the enhancement kids, but if at the UoM at the actual lectures and tutorials that are the same as the uni kids your with them- only some courses like UMEP psych has this,
-
your mail/email is prob late, i'm sure you'll get in with those scores
:D
I really hope your right.
Btw, does extension subjects require as much study as normal VCE subs?
Or is it possible to bludge your way through. I just want an increment of 5.

i've heard its quite easy to get an increment of 5.0 since its just over 60%+ with some cramming before exams you'll be fine:)
hope i will too hah
-
Hey, did anyone else get a duplicate email from Monash regarding enhancement acceptance this morning?
-

you would have to wait another several days, they should mail it out on monday instead of wednesday.

UMEP ECONOMICS! I'm so pumped :) Only thing is i might not be able to attend the welcome event :( that would really suck. Stupid work! grrrr

anyone else having trouble logging into the student portal for melb uni extension program?

Do u guys know whether the lectures are during school days? Also, are the uni exams b4 or after VCE exams.
lol. im asking questions as if i got in.
-
Lectures are during school days (at least, most of them are, there may be exceptions I'm unaware of) and the exams tend to be after VCE exams (again, it's probably better if you just check the website instead of asking here).
-
anyone else having trouble logging into the student portal for melb uni extension program?
Yep, I get the following error:
"Unexpected error encountered in wwsec_app_priv.process_signon (User-Defined Exception) (WWC-41417)
There is a conflict with your assigned user name. There is a user entry with this name, but with a different globally unique identifier, which must be resolved before you can log on with this name. Notify your administrator. (WWC-41742)"
Is yours similar/same?
-
mine works but when you click on enrolment status it said downtime due to vtac processing.
-
when i attempt to login it gives me the message..... "Error: Authentication failed. Please try again" :|
when it asks for username do we just use our name (e.g Jane Doe ---> janed) or do we need to have @.etc...
and would anyone remember what goes after the @ symbol in our melb uni emails? completely forgot to write it down, just assumed that it would be mentioned on our student portal pages but since it won't let me log in :|
-
Rejected Monash and accepted Melbourne today lol :). See fellow Melbourners on the 21st :P who else is going??
YES!!! MELB UNI FOR THE WIN!!!!!
Enjoy University Biology in 2010 :D

Choc the password is only 8 characters, so when you created it it capped the password at 8 characters. Just type the first 8 characters.

I'm going! I was gonna create a thread but there didn't seem to be many people:P If you see a girl with crazy curly hair and grey chucks say hi....and hope that it's me, because otherwise that could be awkward:P
-
hey schmalex, the username not the problem i know mine (first name and first letter of last) and lol my names not jane doe i just used that as an example:D
thanks andrewloppol you were right!!! when i attempted to change my pw i realised that the pw length was restricted to 8 letters and i always use my usual 9 letter pw for everything totally didnt notice. finally logged in:D
on another note accepted melb today too but now all i have left is to to compose a rejection email to monash lol...

WOO :D

Got into UMEP Physics :)
-
I wasn't there :P I was at Monash, actually, and it was quite strange because I saw a lot of the MUEP kids around. Apparently EvangelionZeta bumped into one of my closest friends (who was doing ASO too) though :)
-
Ah, I just spent 2.5 weeks at Monash for the Australian Science Olympiads Scholar School... and it was such a coincidence that the MUEP people were there on the exact day I was supposed to be at Melbourne!
-
I couldn't leave :P It was our final lab exam...
-
Yup, I've done my online enrolment. I have to organise my ID cards though!
-
Do you know when classes start/how to find out?
-
i thought if you doing it at an enhancement centre it's normal school times.
im gonna double check though.
lucky people who get to start in march!
-
i think i saw you andrew LOL
-
i think i saw you andrew LOL
You probably did, should've apporached me :P I was wearing a light blue shirt :).
...ALL the hot girls are doing Biology (ooooooooh yeah) haha :D.
I had no one to look at in the accounting orientation, was hell! hahaha
-
... this is somewhat disturbing.
There's either going to be one or two girls doing physics, methinks. We're going to be completely swamped by all the guys.

Lucky you then. You'll have a smorgasbord of choices. :P Jokes.
-
That's what people said about ASO too, but it didn't work like that at all. No relationships, even though there were 5 girls and 17 guys in physics.
-
Haha, just imagining that is making me laugh. Sorry appianway. <3
-
I always wonder what people on the internet actually look like. Generally, its a bad idea to imagine if there's ever a chance you'll be confronted with reality (or because there's a good chance that they're actually guys).

Seeing as though I met 10 or so VN ppl in the last week, I'll state that reality is incongruent with the impressions you acquire purely off the internet.
-
You gotta get in there appian :P flirt with them hehe..
No. Just no.
I was already the experiment for all of the pick up lines before they actually tried them out. Because saying them to physics girls didn't count :)

You wouldn't happen to associate me with the character in my avatar would you :P
-
Akirus - I think some of them also said them to me to freak me out. One wrote some on my photo, so I wrote a comment which was somewhat insulting (in a hilarious way) on his.
And I think I'm VERY different to what people think about me when they see me online. Tres different.

From your avatar matty, I expected you to be a gargantuan entity that can rest the Earth in his palms. :D

Rest assured, I dismiss any sub-conscious associations, you're all just faceless silhouettes to me.

haha, t'was never in doubt. ;D

You couldn't dream the amount of porn I used to watch (got real girls now lol..).
