I know if you have designated a proxy during your application and want to change or delete it later, you can.

I have a question about applying:
For this question; did you complete a senior secondary study in a year other than 2010??

It doesnt mean like a VCE subject yeah??

Yes.  So just say you're VCE is like this:

1.  VCE Graduate 2010
2.  Completed a VCE Unit 3+4 subject in 2009
3.  Completed a VCE Unit 3+4 subject in 2008

Then you will need to tick the box and say that you did complete VCE studies prior to 2010 and it will ask you about which country you completed that study, which school etc.  And you will also have to do it twice - one for 2009 and one for 2008.

The reason why they do that is because it helps VTAC confirm that you have done subjects prior to your VCE graduation so that when they collate all your results, it'll just make it easier.

I cannot confirm this so do not take my word for it but I have heard that if you don't tick the box and then VTAC won't count your previous studies.  But I don't see how it would work.  Still better to be safe than sorry.

WTF is a Pi form?????

edit: ima take a guess and say that pi=personal interests....so wrong! :p

The Pi form is the Personal information form and it is mainly used for non-year 12s because non-year 12s may have done something interesting since they left school and that might enhance selection so VTAC wants to give them all possible chances.  While most VTAC courses do not require year 12s to complete the form it is best to look through the extra requirements and make sure that it isn't listed as a requirement for current year 12s.

They did it for me automatically...

It's in the registration process where they ask you about your education history, like what school you go to etc.

Don't fret. You can add an extra year AFTERWARDS. So you still have ages to fix it, if you did happen to miss it initially.

UNSW sometimes does phone interviews, and my careers teacher said sometimes if say Monash gives u an interview, UNSW wont give you one. They have this sort of unofficial deal between unis so that they dont give out too many offers to a few people

im planning on doing this ( applying all over the place )
im guessing you have to make an account and pay 25 bux for each one ..
question ... how long did it take u to put all preferences in?
i wanna do it this week but have 4 sacs .. thinking of doing it all weekend etc

ALSO
for each of the diff sites . do u need a guide like a vtac guide to find out all the codes ( e.g 28501) for different courseS?
