Well by laws of physics I guess you can do it, and people do (like callum), it's just that it's "against the rules".. It's honestly up to you to weigh up the pros and cons (and the cons definitely outweighs the pros).

Edit: for reference, although the consensus at my school is that the rule is quite poorly enforced (i guess this is supported by Callum's experience..), it does state:

"Candidates must be in at least their final year of secondary schooling, or above, to be eligible to sit UMAT i.e. they must be completing, or already have completed, Year 12 in 2012. Year 11 students or students completing Year 12 over 2 years are NOT permitted to sit UMAT. Candidates found to have sat UMAT in Year 11 will have their results cancelled and will not be allowed to sit UMAT again."

Do you really want to risk it?
hahaha I never read that! I'm glad that I don't need to worry about it any more otherwise i'd me bummed.

TheAspiringDoc, I'd just not worry about it and to practice questions instead  ;)

Maybe to get an indication of what your actual percentile would be post up your scores and see if someone experienced can give you an indication.

Anyone here know if ATARnotes is doing their head start lectures?
Don't worry about scores that you can't change  because there are so many more productive things you could do

Looking for customisable high school tuition that fits your needs? Or maybe you're just looking for some help with a specific concept that doesn't require frequent tuition. Component Education has something to fit all students needs! https://www.facebook.com/componenteducation/ https://www.componenteducation.com.au/

Hope you eyes are alright! Christmas came early with the textbook thing so I'd already chalk that up as some happy holidays  ::)

It's really awesome that you're so dedicated and I have no doubt that you'll kill VCE - but be careful not to burn yourself out! VCE is a hectic marathon, so don't make it any harder on yourself than necessary!  :)

I only say so because you remind me so much of myself (not to sound condescending, haha).
When I was in year 9, I was hassling my brother who was doing VCE to learn how it all worked and was reading every VCE-related thing I could find. I had my subject selection and all that planned out, hahaha (not that it ended up the way I planned, haha)

Nah no way! I used to hate English was I was like yr 7-8, when you start to understand what the teacher is always on about.... it actually becomes the most interesting, expansive and complex subject you take! Even though I am doing EL, try and open up to the subject and you will soon love it!
