If you do a range of different subjects in VCE (a reasonable mix from each subject area), are universities more likely to accept you than if you don't?

Probably not unless they hit a range of middle band subjects in which case, ever so slightly, yes.

maybe for monash, but I wouldn't say 'ever so slightly'

For example, physio at latrobe. Under additional considerations, subject bonuses;

"A study score of 30 in any Mathematics, Physical Education or any Science equals 4 aggregate points per study. A study score of 25 in Health And Human Development equals 4 aggregate points. A study score of 20 in any LOTE equals 4 aggregate points per study. Overall maximum of 12 points."
 
That's a massive change, aggregate of 173.0 is 94.90 ATAR and with the bonus that'll be 185.0 which is a 97.80 ATAR
2013: Biology [47]

2014 AIMS: English (37)    Methods (37)    Business Management (30)    Chemistry (40)


2015 AIMS:
Applied Science/Physiotherapy Practice at La Trobe

Feel free to PM me about Bio or anything :)
