are you talking about midsem or next year transfer, because midsem transfer is only assessed by "ATAR".

So will you just get a 0 added to the GPA?

I'm getting 5-5-5-maybe 0 for a fail and in semester 2 i'll try bump it up to maybe 6 hopefully 7 for HD. Is that how it works?

For GPA:

Some (but not all) Australian tertiary institutions use close variations of the following grading structure:

HD 85% and above (High Distinction)
D 75-84% (Distinction)
Cr 65-74% (Credit Pass)
P 50-64% (Pass)
F1 45-49% (Fail level 1)
F2 below 45% (Fail level 2)

Grade point averages are not generally used in Australia below a tertiary level. They are calculated according to more complicated formula than some other nations:

Grade Point Average (GPA) = Sum of (grade points × course unit values) / total number of credit points attempted, in which grade points are as follows:

High Distinction = 7
Distinction = 6
Credit = 5
Pass = 4
Fail level 1 = 1
Fail level 2 = 0
