I'm not familiar with the Australian school system, but I bet there is a lot more national control over curriculum and teaching standards. The convoluted admissions process is the price Americans pay for having a decentralized educational system. If universities went on the basis of marks alone, I can't imagine how many schools would spring up where every senior mysteriously graduates with a perfect 4.0.
