I always likened the time between trials and exams to this part of Robert frost “
For I have had too much
Of apple-picking: I am overtired
Of the great harvest I myself desired. “

Idk
I feel like leading up to trials you give it your all and then after trials it’s like hard to gain the motivation to continue the grind for the exams 🤷‍♀️
I mean I did only get an atar in the mid-low 60’s so like I did give up from the beginning of year 11 lol

Also idk if this will help anyone but like even if you don’t get the atar you want or into the degree you want you can still do lots of stuff get into thing with different pathways ETC and like in years to come no one really cares about atar.
The only person who mentions it in my life is from BOS lol

I have a friend who got a 90+ atar yet has taken over 7 years to do a 3 year marketing degree lols

Yeah Ellztrap is spitting facts. I didn't get the atar for the course i am ultimately studying (and finishing this semester woo hoo) so there is always a way. The way also isn't always the obvious way. E.g., there in assumption that IB firms are looking for comm/law grads, but I know people who got in with maths, philosophy, compsci, finance etc
