The test complements your Year 12 ATAR results,\u00a0can be used for entry into <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flinders.edu.au\/future-students\/undergraduate\/year-12-entry\/unitest-courses.cfm\">over 90 courses\u00a0<\/a>at Flinders University, and it&#8217;s entirely free to sit.<\/p>\n<p>If you do well in the test, the results can count towards 40% of your application to a course at Flinders, with the remaining 60% weighted on your ATAR result.
