    Social effects of getting a 99+ atar?

    Socially it was a very awkward, yet equally exciting experience. I find it really difficult to take praise and congratulations so after getting it I was dreading attending my school ATAR morning tea. People around me were stoked and I was as well, but some noticed I was looking visibly ill...

    WW1 - should be easy and no one should stress, we are literally given assisting stimulus. Just make sure you know how to answer the source based long-form response.
