Sorry if this is in the wrong section but anywayz...

If you are 0.1 mark (no joke) away from the course you want to do, will they still consider you??

Yes, that is just the "clearly in", you will be involved in what's called the middle band, and they'll take into consideration your GAT, and subject scores. If you missed off by 0.1, you should be amongst the top of that cohort, so I'd say you are fine! Just make sure you consider some other options just in case :)

oh i see ....phew...I feel a tiny bit better now...

Anyways... if worse comes to worse and you think you screwed up the GAT then what?
Does middle band  occur with the 2nd round offers and is for ppl who got a certain mark lower than what is needed yeah??

Don't forget that the clearly-in can be adjusted up or down depending on how many applications for the course you apply for receive.
