Hi, Thanks for all your help. The only thing that could seem a problem is that I dont think that my High school transcript would be recognized or even understoon. The High school in my country is totally easy and its extremely easy to get into university here. Do you think this will matter?

Also i have a more modest list of EC’s unlike some of the nerds (no offence intended) on this forum who won national awards etc. Do you think this will be an issue??

Thanks for your help

I asked my counselor to send a letter basically explaining the grading system in Australia (I think our ENTER system is similar to the one in NZ?). You should do the same.

And make sure you write REALLY good essays; I had very good stats score-wise but I think my essays failed me at most of my choices, don’t repeat the same mistake :P
