Monash cut-off info and predictions?

[luken93]

And I hope there is a 50-50-50 cutoff! Actually I think they should make it 60-60-60...

And therefore cut thushan!?!?! Impossible.

And cut pretty much all of us hahahaha

Actually no, I think they should just make it a 60 cutoff for section 2....

How did you go?

Ouais, heureusement. 98%ile.

Please correct me if I am wrong, but didn't the presentation made by Monash Uni say that the cut-off score was 183 ( total raw score) last year?
If that's the case, then the students who got 92% or so ( raw score between 188-190) are maybe still in with a chance?

[thushan]

Bare minimum is 150 total for all three sections under all three streams.

Friend rang Monash Uni admissions, and the guy made a prediction of the UMAT cutoff

[trishfish]

I got
S1: 53 (yeah it killed me)
S2: 62
S3: 62 (yup this too)
total = 177
overall score = 59
percentile of 83.

im pretty disappointed but looking at last years results the umat this year seems more challenging. Do i still have a chance of med? 

and wow 150??? really without weighting?

[superstar1]

no if you want 150 minimum for umat you need to get the monash excellence award; that is get an atar of 99.95.

[thushan]

Sorry, misunderstanding.

UMAT minimum for all three streams is 150. However, based on demand (they take top 400 for UMAT stream) the UMAT cutoff will be in the vicinity of ~200.

For ATAR stream (99.95) minimum UMAT is indeed just 150.

For ATAR/UMAT stream they mash together ATAR and UMAT, and interview top 200 who didnt already get an interview. UMAT minimum is 150, but UMAT needed depends on ATAR, which has to be probs 99+.

[mattshen]

so if someone had really beast scores in section 1 and 3 but low scores for section 2 (<50) and even tho they get 98 percentile, they can't get a monash interview?

[Romperait]

Because percentiles are quite a lot lower this year comparatively for the same raw score obtained last year, I'd say it's possible for the percentile cutoff to be less than last year, even after taking into account the changes made with the umat and atar/umat streams.

Careers teacher at my school was indicating today that 185 total would be around the cutoff this year. I don't know if this is definitive but she got the info from Monash so I suppose it should be heartening for some. =)
