How easy is it to get into Monash Enhancement?

Anyone know if competition for this program is at all fierce? How easy is it to get in?

And do they look at your 3+4 subject results? (Not for the prerequisite subject)

Just maintain an A/A+ average across your subjects, and if you did a 3/4 that was not a prerequesite then they just count it along with your average, so try and get 40+ to give you a boost on getting in since they see you can get all A's and then a 40+. Although, if your report shows you are getting A/A+s in your 3/4 along with your 1/2s then it should be fine even if you got much lower than 40.
I had a pretty low English score, and then A/A+ average for 4 subjects (did accounting also and did horrible too since i never went to class), getting 44 in psych and got in. Though i probably would have gotten in anyway even if i didn't get my 3/4 score since my grades on my reports had been good in a few subjects.
I'm sure you can get in (considering your aiming for 98+)!

my school's a bit iffy with reporting, they have a L~VH scale with criteria such as "class participation", "listening to others" etc then on our online school accounts there's a report where they show EVERY letter grade mark on all of your assessments.

I'm thinking of attaching that to my report to show off my A+'s in Japanese but im feeling a bit paranoid with my one-off C's and my 2 UG's (undergraded aka fail) :\ Would Monash care about having a few crappy marks? :\

Anyone know if competition for this program is at all fierce? How easy is it to get in?

I am really shit at maths and in year 11 (though i tried hard :[ ) this showed; however, I had references from all of my teachers saying how hard I worked, and i specifically said 'I'm not doing maths next year anyway and will only be doing the subjects that I'm good at' and because I did well in all of the subjects related to the course, they accepted me. Not too hard! :)

Just get references from teachers
[2009] Texts and Traditions- 43
[2010] English; Literature; History: Revolutions; Italian;  MUEP Australian History and Politics (5.5)

[2011] GAP YEAR BABY!
[2012] RMIT Journalism?

seriously it shouldn't be much of an issue if you think you are capable of it and your teachers agree. I got in with two crappy study scores that I am sure you will beat so easily.
