Good work. I like it.  :wink:

Information Systems should be renamed Information Technology: Software Development and Information Processing and Management should be renamed Information Technology: Applications. Funnily enough, and perhaps the reason for this error, the scaling report still refers to them by their old names (or was the new names introduced this year?).

Are you able to send that to me?
Whilst that layout is good for a spreadsheet, it's not too practical for a website. ;)

Yeah, the names were changed this year (I did Information Systems last year)
And yeah, my data was from last year's scaling report, which is why they're referred to by the old names.

Can you post when you will change the scaling in the program, to bring into effect the scaling from the 2007 Scaling report? (after it comes out of course  :) )

2008 - English (40), Literature (37), National Politics (37), Maths Methods (32), History Renaissance (39)
ENTER: 93.20

2009 - Bachelor of Arts (ANU)

The best thing to do is the query people what their scaled scores were for particular raw scores. The scaling report rounds off to the nearest integer, so it can be off by up to points.

I'll try to update it as soon as possible.

The scaling report is alright for this though, I think. We don't need something perfectly exact :)

When I tested the extension study increment it didn't add to the overall aggregate.

Obsolete Chaos depending on how your extension studies go it could well be your 5th or 6th preference.

Extension studies require that you do at least 5 subjects. If you have only done 4, the UMEP will not be included because it must take the "sixth subject" and there is no 5th subject to bridge it. That is an incredibly stupid technicality, IMO.

I'm pretty sure Extension Studies will take the 6th place, unless there is a better candidate (e.g: you got 4.0 in UMEP, but you have a 4.5 that you haven't used in top 4 or 5th subject yet)

I put my study scores in the ENTER calculator and it estimated my score to be .1 higher than my real score. So, it's pretty accurate :)
