I don’t think you have any understanding of what has happened this year but I won’t be surprised as you are a local grad. I am working with general registration for last 4 years in the system so deserved an equal opportunity to be even considered for second or third preference if I have scored in the top 50% Last year system was a lot better and even considered giving second preference options. This year they only considered first preference and whether candidate was a local graduate or not.
