Poll

How did the UMAT 2013 go in general? (modesty aside)

Pretty good, I'm pleased with my performance
Alright I guess
Not really sure, could have gone either way
Not too well, not happy with how I went
To be frank, a complete disaster
I didn't sit the UMAT 2013 today but like to respond to polls anyway

Are our results usually released before Sep 27th?

looking at the trend from past years, they are usually released 19th - 23rd september

Do I want to know how you know that to such specifics (seems like a bit of hearsay of non-ACER-official info)? LOL

Nah, I extrapolated:

1 - ACER maintains that each question is worth the same score
2 - The idea of a UMAT score is so that say a 60 in one year is the same level of achievement as a 60 in another year
3 - I was reading this website where people posted their scores up for each section, and noticed that for S1, for instance in 2011, there were no scores between 105 and 92, and between 92 and 82, and between 82 and 77, for example.

Percentile curves for those interested. (Found on MSO)






That Section 2 curve looks terrible for 2013. A 50 in S2 used to be around 60th percentile...not < 20th percentile like this year. Seems like S3 got harder and S2 got easier, in terms of content.
