    2023 ATAR/HSC Marks

    For everyone awake, what if NESA pulls a NESA and the results were delayed a day? Just imagine pulling an all nighter for nothing lmao

    Instead of Providing Yearly B6's for ATAR Estimates, Why Don't We Also Look at Historic Averages [Suggestion]

    Instead of Providing Yearly B6's for ATAR Estimates, Why Don't We Also Look at Historic Averages [Suggestion]

    I was thinking about just yesterday. Typically in this case the skew would predominantly negatively skewed. For example, if we imagine a class which does Subject A, and let the average be 80. Last rank would typically be a very low number, say in the 30's whilst rank 1 will be usually 98~. Even...

    I guess another way to know the averages is to do some OSINT, and find if your school uploads them publicly. Something like, "[Insert school here] HSC Results [Year]"

    Yup seems like only public schools (non, partial and fully selective) works as of now. Also I accidentally filed a report instead of commenting, whoops my bad...

    TL;DR: Find out your school's average cohort HSC mark at https://hscscalinggraphs.au/rankingsearch.html to possibly provide extra detail when doing asking for an ATAR estimate. THERE ARE LIMITATIONS THOUGH. So short story short, I recently stumbled upon a SMH article by the name of, "Meet the...

    UNSW CS + Arts vs UTS Cyber Security + Criminology?

    Aha, I've seen that going through the course handbook myself. Though I've asked a couple friends who do Comp Sci in UNSW and they've mentioned majoring in comp sci is basically useless. I was told the default course allows you to have a greater sense of freedoming by picking your units and...
