Uni Stuff > Australian National University
So i went to fill in the uas application form and there's not nearly enough room
Eriny:
When employers look at your transcript, they'll know that ANU grades harder than other universities because ANU has spent a lot of time building their reputation. However, employers don't actually care *that* much about your transcript anyway, you'll want decent marks (don't get all passes!), but they'll be looking at extra curriculars and work experience particularly.
And yes, it's a small box. Try to pick out the most impressive sounding things, use dot points and remember that everyone is in the same boat. BTW, what are your preferences?

Could someone explain the marking at ANU? I.e. what percentile get HD/D/C/P?
Is being good in English alone enough to suggest Law is doable? I'm looking at ~45 apparently.

I don't think many, if any subjects are graded according to percentiles. As far as I know, students are graded based on the raw mark they receive, unless an assessment or a course was especially easy or hard, in which case a bell curve might be used.

Exactly how hard would it be to get a credit (60-69%) then? I'm really in the dark if Law would be right for me with regard to difficulty. My history isn't as good as my English if that matters - I think I'm looking at a high 30 for Revolutions.
Duck:
Eriny, i'm currently thinking:
Monash Commerce/Law
ANU Commerce/Law
Melbourne Commerce
Monash Commerce
ANU Commerce or Deakin Commerce, but if i didn't get in to Monash Commerce i would be VERY dissapointed, especially considering i already have a 42 in Accounting from last year.
Also, i question whether it really is common knowledge that ANU marks hard.
