life after vce...

[green04]

how do you do that?

because its seems as though an enter below 80 means your life is over.

You could always repeat year 12 with a few subjects.

[xXNovaxX]

why would you ever repeat year 12 again, there have been many threads/post on this. For one, today they have so many pathways and opportunities, that if you don't get into your course the direct way, you can go otehr ways e.g. do another course in man time

But if you REALLY wanted to, just talk to your coordinators, but i think this option is more for people who struggle, not necesarrily those that get like a 85, but needed a 90.

what about those someone who got an 84, for example, but needed a 85 for there last preference? or someone who didn't do well enough in english to go to monash/UoM (only place they wanted to go)? i reckon that's they are both a reason to repeat year12 if desperate

They could go through a year at Vic Uni or TAFE, get kickass marks and then transfer if they're really that desperate. Repeating year 12 just seems like a massive waste of time.

Exactly, plus that option gives you credit usually so you're not adding a whole year onto your degree. Plus even if you repeat VCE you're not guaranteed to get a better ENTER. I know someone who got ~97.5, missed out on med, repeated VCE and UMAT and studied her ass off and only got 97.xx the second time round too. Waste of time.

Oh wow, that's extremely unfortunate!!....but getting 84 - it'd be easier to get higher as doing 2~3 subjects which can  be focused on will definitely bring the score up. I would hate to repeat year 12 though and i highly doubt i would ever, just an option

That's why SEAS exists, and also, they are allowed to do some tweaking if you talk to them etc. Some people on this site have been in the same situation and have gotten in. BTW, I hold the same fear , of being that bit off, but i'm sure it would work out!

[Fyrefly]

Eh... I think most people will find that 1st year uni is easier and less stressful than VCE.
The extended summer break (compared to high school) is also always nice

[chem-nerd]

you'd have to be pretty silly to not have changed your preferences to prevent this situation from occurring

[TrueTears]

Also, your parents will still love you. If in doubt, ring them and say "I just got involved in a car accident".

Possible responses:

(1) ARE YOU ALRIGHT?
(2) IS THE CAR ALRIGHT?
(3) I KNEW IT.
(4) WHY ARE YOU ALIVE?

If (1), your parents love you; (2) they love the car more than you; (3) your parents are psychic; (4) they want you to move out.

lol just gotta love toothpaste's posts.
