Hey guys :awesome:
So I'm just curious, if you put a course you'd like to get into as your #1 preference in UAC and then receive an offer for it in Main Round, can you then change your preferences and put a different course as your first for the later rounds and still receive further offers?

(I'm asking because with bonus points I'm just .85 of an ATAR point away from the cut-off for the course i'd love to get into, but I still don't want to risk putting it as my first preference and inevitably not receive any main round offers. So instead I've put a different more achievable course as my first preference, but I've called the uni and they've said that as my ATAR is SO close to the cut-off there's still a chance I might receive an offer if I place it as my first option so I'm considering switching this course to my first preference for later rounds.)

Thanks heaps!

PUT THE THING YOU WANT TO GET INTO THE MOST FIRST AND THEN PUT YOUR NEXT WANTED COURSE SECOND AND SO ON

IF YOU WANT TO GET INTO SOMETHING REALLY BADLY PUT IT FIRST NO MATTER YOUR ATAR BUT THEN PUT THINGS YOU CAN DEFINITELY GET INTO LOWER DOWN

I cannot stress this enough!!

IF YOU DON'T GET YOUR FIRST PREFERENCE THEN YOU'LL JUST GET A LOWER PREFERENCE BUT IF YOU PUT SOMETHING SECOND AND THEN IT FILLS UP IN MAIN ROUND AND YOU PUT IT FIRST LATER THEN YOU WILL NOT GET AN OFFER FOR IT IN ANY OF THIS SEMESTER'S ROUNDS
