Adjustment factors can help you receive an offer for one or more of your course preferences at UC, even if your ATAR doesn’t meet the minimum requirements for those courses. They work by awarding extra points to your selection rank, giving you a higher entry score for certain courses.

It’s worth noting that subject adjustment factors do not change your ATAR, they only change your selection rank for certain course preferences.
