how many people share your ATAR?? (1 Viewer)

[Morgan1234pooki]

like, if you get 95.5, how many other people get that?? is it a set number?? and how many people get 99.95???

 

[Omnipotence]

99.95 ~ 30 (nsw)
I'm not too sure but I think every increment of 0.05 is like 50 people.

 

[Infatuate]

Oh oops, read it incorrectly

 

[Morgan1234pooki]

how many people are sitting the HSC this year??

 

[Omnipotence]

I'll take a stab ~ 80,000 people.

 

[Morgan1234pooki]

so if i got say 96.00 and with every incremint, there is 50 people...does that mean 10,000 people would have beaten me?

 

[Omnipotence]

Can't be bothered checking the maths, but looks about right.

it's not neccesarily linear, but i'm pretty sure it's less than that

Does it count people who were in the Yr 7 cohort that have not completed their HSC (> 80,000). If so, the figure looks about right.

Yeah, pretty sure that's what's different about atar and uai. UAI only included people form yr 10 and ATAR includes people from year 7. I think. Do NOT quote me. Also, atar only goes to 99.95 where as uai went to 100 (obvs)

This is about right.

Each ATAR point is worth around 1000 students iirc.

If you get 96, about 4000 students beat you.

I thought 99.95 was closer to 45? Because it merged 99.95 UAI and 100 UAI, and 21~ people got 100, and about 25 got 99.95 UAI

I've never thought about in that perspective but it sounds logical.

I'd say for a general answer, around 50 people per ATAR.

Capped - ages to load.

 

[someth1ng]

I thought it was ~20 people get 99.95 and it's 40 for every 0.05 after that?

ooft sucks. well i'll summarise here.

49 people in 2010 got 99.95. on average the number of people on one atar is 40-50, but it's never more than 50.
