Any competitive factor would tend to be in the make-up of the individual student. There are certain awards that are mainly based on grades but there are others that are based on non-academic abilities. There are also financial needs bursaries which that are not based on academics. For Fieldwork: students will complete a form prior to each fieldwork block indicating their top five choices. A computer program randomly assigns students to a placement.
