Re: FUCK :(

Yup, you're fucked. I'm only in Year 10 and I know. Did you do any studying at all? :L

Re: FUCK :(

No, the ATAR calculator is completely wrong and you're going to get 80.


Seriously, what do you want from this? You're going to get somewhere in the region of 43 to 50. Start trying to deal with that because there's no hope.

Re: FUCK :(

If you have certain plans which you have been hoping to undertake next year, you may have to review your approach if it is dependent on ATAR. As people say, this isn't the be all and end all.

Why go to university, when you can have a great life as a plumber?

Re: FUCK :(

You know these marks mean absolutely nothing if you're still going to get an ATAR that gets you into the course you wanted.

Re: FUCK :(

Wow, screw you all. I got similar marks, but I thought I did really well. The problem for me, is I have really bad panic/anxiety disorder. I thought I could handle it when obviously I was wrong and it got the best of me.....I haven't stopped crying all morning.

Have a bit of respect.

Well, I'm sorry about that - but going to us and going "is there still hope" when an ATAR calculator has already basically said you're limited to what you're going to get, is not going to do anyone any good.

The ATAR calculators are pretty accurate. You put your HSC marks in, and then you get an ATAR estimate out. They 'estimate' scaled marks based on your HSC mark - so my point still stands.

Re: FUCK :(

Well... I keep getting one mark away from band 3->4
I can't be sad or angry though, I didn't study at all. Pretty much f'ed here as well, and now.. which Uni I should enroll to.. UNSW and UTS is out of options.. (Though I wish I could enroll there so I could just walk for 5 minutes step to go there)

and I thought I'm the only one F'ed up here

HSC is one big game. No indication to how smart someone is. Those who get the marks know how to play 'the game'.
