I have a friend who just missed out on getting into 4u. She has no idea how to tell her parents and tutor. She goes to James Ruse and she's Asian

I still struggle to see how this is a huge problem...

Asians ---> study hard ---> 99.95, doing Asian 5 subjects ---> 100 percentile UMAT ---> do med despite not liking it ---> rep and $$$

There's no way to say it

Her parents have to find out eventually despite how high their expectations are and how angry they will get

I'm sure the tutor will be fine with it though

Why would tutor care

But is it the end of the world?

She's Asian.

"I didn't get into 4 unit Math"

Also, why does your friend want to do 4u for? Is she interested in actuarial studies/advanced maths? Pretty much only courses I think which have these subjects as assumed knowledge.

"I didn't get into 4 unit Math"

actually; it will go more along the lines of "我没有进入4单元数学"

She should find a new family who accept their daughter doing 3 Unit

Tell them you're pregnant and when they're shocked just say 'Nah jk I never got into 4u lol'.

 

[Queenroot]

Tell them the school is racist

 

[panda15]

I don't know why selective schools limit the number of students doing 4u math
