dammit! I wish there was a strict set of rules that i could just follow! Damn this system of 'choosing'!!!
It really depends on you. If you study for 1 hour per day and you feel you know all the stuff by heart then you can still get UAI 95+.
If other people tell you to study for certain hours of the day, let's say 7 hours. However if you are not absorbing any information in those 7 hours, then it is just a waste of time. Not everyone can concentrate on that long hours. Some people maybe able to concentrate very hard for 2 hours and they can do all the study in those 2 hours.
If you can't concentrate for that long then not only it is a waste of time, you may even forget what you've studied.

how did u get bonus points from universities?
Different universities have different guildlines. University of Wollongong gives 3 bonus points for those who attends high schools in the council areas of Sutherland Shire, Wollongong, Shellharbour, Kiama, Shoalhaven. University of Newcastle also gives 2 bonus points for those who attends high schools in the Newcastle areas (I think).
I heard University of Western Sydney, ANU also give out bonus points.
You may also apply for misadventure (examples are long term illness, family problems - parents divorce, pass away etc etc), and depends on each case, up to 5 bonus points will be given to successful applicants. Hope this helps
