I was wearing this reddish scarf which I accidently took in the dark (living in the West = 6am wake up *sigh*) but my hair was down... so probably not me :p

I did too! My order was different though: I worked from section 2 to 1 to 3.

I woke up at 6 too fml...got home and slept

3-->2-->1

That’s weird btw Yac – how did you manage going from 3 to 2? 1 and 2 have similar mindsets whereas s2 had emotional reasoning. All the power to you but I couldn’t do that as effectively

I feel sick about the umat, every time someone mentions an answer they got, I didn't get it. I spent the whole exam thinking 'This is really easy' and now I think I've stuffed it! I'm so worried :S

Thing is, I did the first 10 questions in order, only to realise that I found s3 really easy. Upon finishing up with that, I did s2 and then s1. Tbh, i'm not 100%s confident with s1 and s2 questions, so I'm hoping I made the cut for an 85th percentile +.

I think this goes for everyone, but I think it's really important to move on - don't doubt yourself, it's pointless.

UMAT is over guys and we still have VCE to knock over. It's a cliche but worrying over it isn't going to help - far better to invest your time and energy into finishing this year as strongly as possible. We did our best - the results will come as they may. I'm resigned.

Nek minnit,

You all get 100 percentiles.

Edit: hope this post didn't offend anyone, what I meant to say was that I'm sure you all did better than you'd expect! :)

No offence, but every time when I see your posts on the umat forum, I would shake my head. There are 2 problems in this post. 1. I would actually feel angry and upset after reading your post if I did UMAT this year and did poorly. The part before your "edit bit" means nothing and may actually hurt others' feelings 2. You cannot be sure everyone did better than they would expect. You are not them and you haven't done UMAT. End of story.

If you are considering to post on the UMAT forum again, please consider what others would feel before posting.

I'm sure your 99.95 will compensate ;)

Don't worry! Your mind is only fixating on the questions you could have gotten wrong and disregards the significant proportion of the questions you got correct so you probably did fine :)

Uhh... I was too scared that time would run out to try and separate the sections. Just ran through it, like the GAT.

It's over now! Trust me we all feel worried haha. VCE still awaits us. Head up :)

Same here tbh, but I did go over questions I didn't feel confident with as I had 30 minutes left.  8)
