I remember i applied for UMEP maths and i did really really bad in advanced general maths ie E,D marks on the report. They called me and asked why I did so bad and I gave them a reason and they seemed to have accepted it.

wut did u say to them? I think I'll get around 30-35 as a study score of psych...do you think they'll let me do it if I get B+ average and send them a letter outlining my reasons to do it?

I just told them I didn't study for any of the tests (which was true). But I think they accepted me because my methods score was >40

Why do you want to do UMEP psychology?

Can I also just add, yes it does seem un-fair kind of, and i see why u want to do it, that because ur like 1/2 a letter grade off, you can't do it.

IMO, I don't think an A student is SO MUCH MORE capable than a B+ student, so i see why u really want to do it. And also, your passion/internet in wanting to do it shows a lot.

Best of luck!


And and piece of advice, I was going to do an enhancement, but the pre-requisite wasn't offered at my school, so I e-mailed them and said if i REALLY wanted to do it, they can find ways etc.

If you want, PM me, and ill see if I can find that email.

i applied for muep and got in this year for maths, i didnt meet the prerequisites (for the methods score i think i just missed out by 1) but my report for gma was 100% on all exams and tests and a great recommendation from the coordinators so they are lenient. that being said, you shouldnt change your report at all. they will be fair.

I don't think they're very strict with their prerequisites. They basically just want to know whether you're capable of doing enhancement without it impacting on your other grades, which contribute more heavily towards your ENTER score. If you can convince them of this even through a letter, which is what admin did iirc I'm sure they'll accept you.

That said, it's wrong to cheat the system. I wouldn't recommend it.

If I end up getting a 40 + score for the subject but my overall average is below B+ in my report.... does this mean i risk the chance of getting into the extension course?

For UMEP subjects I have a feeling they'll let you in if you get Cs and Bs. Maybe not if you're getting Ds and Es, but I don't know. From what I'm hearing your Study Score in the preparatory study seems to be the most important requirement.
