After edit it makes sense =/
If you got 4 50s and 2 5.5s from uni subjects, and nothing you did scaled over 50, you'd *just* miss out on 99.95 despite being perfect.
Stupid system :P

I don't think you can do two uni subjects. :)

If the goal was to maximize your ENTER then I would recommend doing two uni subjects anyway

no, you can't do two uni subjects. uni extension subjects can only count as your 6th subject, not as your 5th. so if you did two uni subjects then the second one wouldn't count.

this also means that if you only do four VCE subjects and a uni extension subject, then the uni extension subject doesn't count for anything (seems pretty retarded to me).

to my knowledge no unis allow a student to undertake 2 subjects @ yr12 level anyways...

Yeah, I agree. It sounds like a stupid technical thing that the programmers at VTAC couldn't be stuffed fixing or modifying.

I was just saying that because the dux of my school last year did in fact do 2 uni subjects in year 12, so I just assumed it was possible in general.
Makes sense that only 1 can count and I should think before I type :P

Languages are good to do as they boost your ENTER. They are however very difficult subjects to get a high raw score in (or that is what I hear?)
oping for an ENTER of 99+
