    Share your 2011 ATAR here

    74.15 which I'm very happy with given how stressed I was about not getting into anything. I'll get into somewhere out of Sydney which I likely would've opted for even if I had got a higher one. I'm sick of living at home, and hate the idea of commuting to the city. Moving to a new town with my...

    is anyone else screwed for ancient tomorrow?

    I'm definitely nervous, wouldn't say I'm screwed, though. We're doing Pompeii, Minoans, Agrippina and Augustus. As with every topic, it's the specificities I'll mess up. I can talk at length about any of these topics and could probably narrate their history in perfect sequence, but it's the...

    Alternatives to ATAR in the Wake of the Worst Case Scenario

    Well thanks to you and everyone else for the dispelling of these myths. Honestly, with the way people would say 'it's not everything' and 'there are other ways' but would suddenly stop without outlining these other methods, it seemed like failure of the HSC dooming you was the thing everyone...

    Alternatives to ATAR in the Wake of the Worst Case Scenario

    Lol, I thought someone might jump on that. This wasn't originally written for this forum, it was an enquiry to someone in the system, and I thought it might serve my purpose well to use such words. I edited it a bit for this post. Besides which, I write like that naturally because I read way too...

    Alternatives to ATAR in the Wake of the Worst Case Scenario

    THERE IS A TOO LONG;DIDN'T READ BELOW. Hi, I'm wondering what happens if the worst case scenario occurs- if I were to get an ATAR lower than any of my course requirements and do not receive any offers. Due to procrastination, inadequate preparation and an overall poor attitude through the...
