Getting <25 in the English subject
« on: November 04, 2012, 09:31:37 pm »

What happens if I get a study score below 25 in my English subject? Every undergraduate course I've seen expects their applicants to score a 25+ in their English subject, but I am worried that I might get below that. If I get a 90-95 ATAR but then a 24 in my English subject, could I still get into university?

You won't get into any course which requires a 25+ in English, it doesn't mean you can't get into University.

Well the pre-requisite clearly states minimum of 25. So you would need 25 to be considered

You still have enough time to prevent yourself from getting less then 25. From the way you express yourself on this website you're better then a 25 in any english-type subject lol.

Thanks, but I'm still worried. If I was ranked 6/7 in an average cohort and then I got a C on the exam, would that be enough? Literature isn't my worst subject, but it's definitely not one of my strengths, either.

edit: I don't actually know how good the literature cohort at my school is, but our school as a whole is pretty average.
