Got rejected for FEAS. Not sure why. (1 Viewer)

It's killing me. I don't know why I got rejected. Can anyone propose a reason why please?

Your submission will need to include:

• A short video demonstrating how and why you’re suited to studying engineering at UNSW
• Your latest year 12 school report (e.g., a term, half-yearly or yearly report)

Your video submission is used to evaluate your ability, attitude and motivation for engineering studies, while your year 12 report supplements this information. We do not take individual course marks into consideration.


maybe ur marks were too bad to get in or they dont think you have the ability, attitude or motivation to get in.

I got As and Bs and I actually had projects in there

u kinda have to consider how ur projects were in comparison to other people who submitted. they also may have thought you werent motivated/dedicated enough to the course

The projects were pretty decent though? Like, one was this game that I made on Python and one was literally a robotic animal that I 3D designed, printed, painted, coded for, etc.

Not a Gateway school I could probably get the normal LSR requirement anyway but I'm just so confused where I went wrong? Everyone else I asked got in, even with worse grades or projects. I put so much time and energy into it as well.

What about the video though? It was fine, only issue i can think of is that the visuals quality was somewhat bad because I needed to compress it but you could still see everything...

just a guess. if you keep working hard im sure you could get into engineering still : ), you just gotta wait a bit longer to get accepted

 

[anonymous_potato]

Anyway, if anyone happened to get rejected please let me know what your issue was so I can try to guess mine

It's not even that, I know I can get a 90 or whatever ATAR. Universities give bonus points like candy so the LSR isn't an issue at all. It's more the fact that I put in SO MUCH effort into this thing and I have no idea where I went wrong

Unlucky mate, I know people who did theirs the day before that got in.

Okay, so I've thought about it and it's probably because the course wasn't my first preference for the entirety of the waiting time LOL (it was first, then second, then first again)

could you ask unsw why or just give the uni a call?
