Going to try be less optimistic, coz if I get these scores I'd be happy, but if I get more (i hope i do) it would be a really nice surprise :)

Hewwego:

English: 37 (thinking exam 7,8,6, or if i'm lucky 8,8,7, but got good sacs)
Specialist: 38
Methods: 44
Chem: 42

+ Chinese (42) and Further Math (49)
ATAR: 98.95

Which hopefully means I can scrape in w dean's rural list, or at maybe biomed via SEAS  :)

scared about further,
happy with 35+ for physics,
happy with 25+ for english cause that shit was f'ed.
Hahhaa, i have no clue what to expect come monday. Which is kind of nice since it will be quite the surprise what ever happens.

Just like how my he 'has 0 chance of getting 30 lit' can be interpreted in two ways
1- he's a smart cookie and will get way above it
or 2- he'll get so much lower he'll never hit 30

I made another comment with dual interpretations, obviously intentions were good in both instances but some people just don't interpret it that way, the joys of the internet

I had a dream that I was reading my scores but I woke up before I could get to my ATAR.
But then I put in the scores I put into ATAR Calc and it gave me 92/93ish which seems way to high for me...

But yeah, I dreamt that I got a 22 for EngLang and tbh, that's probably what's gonna happen :P

Ah your subjects are quite similar to mine and so are your predictions!! I also want an ATAR similar to that - whether I get it or not I'll have to wait and see  :)

I keep having similar dreams every night. In the latest one I also dreamed I got about 22 in Eng Lang but 48 in Methods (which will never ever happen haha). I was on holidays with my friends and I was sharing a room with my best friend and apparently I sounded very excited with the 48 in my sleep  ;) :P

Omg ATAR dreams are the worst kind though, because who knows whether it's a sign as to what you're going to get(I'm really superstitious)???!

I must've been dreaming about my ATAR the other day because I got a text in the middle of the night and my dream was like refusing me from looking at my phone because "I thought it was my ATAR and I wanted to check them online not via text message" 😂😂😂

For Year 11s, you only get the raw score, and you'll either have to check the scaling report (for an estimate on scaling), or ask someone in year 12 who got the same raw score as you, or you can wait until you finish year 12 to get it too.

Confirming.

You will be able to access your scaled scores by looking at the results online or checking the scaling report.

Obviously the ATAR you get in the SMS factors in scaled scores, though.

Religion & Society: 40 (-2)
IT Applications: 44 (+4)

Wanted higher for R&S, only got an A on the exam, not an A+, but still happy.

Hi dankfrank,

I got the same ss for methods (43). Can you please tell me how much it scaled by because I'm in yr 11 and have no idea of knowing.
Hehe :)
Congratz on your achievement

Biology - 38 (lowest) to 47 (best case scenario)

I ended up getting 49. Shocked, but obviously very happy.

Pessimistic:
English- 35
Legal- 35
Health- 36
Further- 34
Psych- 32 (my 3/4 last year hahaha)
ATAR- ~73 (dependent on scaling)

Likely:
English- 37
Legal- 37
Health- 38
Further- 35
Psych- 32
ATAR- ~79 (again, scaling)

Optimistic:
English- 41
Legal- 38
Health- 39
Further- 36
Psych- 32
ATAR- ~84

English: 44 (A+, A+, A+)
Legal: 36 (A+, B+, A)
Health: 38 (A+, A, A)
Further: 36 (A, B+, A)
+Psych
ATAR: 84.65

Not bad, not bad at all. Taping $50 to the front of my English exam obviously paid dividends.  8)

Biology: Around 35? (Was aiming for 40, but didn't feel good about all those evolution exam questions :( )


43!!!! :DDD Not as high as some of the other people on AN, but still so happy :)))

Here's mine:
A lower bound (not necessarily the greatest lower bound)
English language - 35
Chemistry - 43
Physics - 45
Maths Methods - 45
Specialist Maths - 43
UMEP Maths - 4.5
ATAR - 99.20

Modest case:
English language - 37
Chemistry - 45
Physics - 47
Maths Methods - 48
Specialist Maths - 45
UMEP Maths - 4.5
ATAR - 99.55

Optimistic case:
English language - 40
Chemistry - 48
Physics - 48
Maths Methods - 49
Specialist Maths - 47
UMEP Maths - 5.0
ATAR - 99.80 (please! :))

Otherwise just waiting for 14th... all the best guys! Hope you get into your 1st pref

Update: 94% for UMEP  = 5.0 increment... more than I was hoping for :)

And it panned out to be
Methods - 48
Specialist - 47
Chemistry - 50
Physics - 48
English Language - 46 ( :o)
UMEP Maths: 5.0
ATAR: 99.95  :o

PREDICTIONS:
Eng: 46 ------->50
Legal: 37 ------> 46
Revs: 36 ------> 42
Classical Studies: 32 -----> 41
Eco: 22 ----> 35
Lit: 46
ATAR 94.45 ------> 99.00

DUDE WHAT EVEN. So like, day after my eng exam I went home and sat on my bed and tried not to cry, because I thought I messed up everything. And then the coming exams just got more and more terrible. Economics I didn't finish, losing 6 marks (off the bat) and then 8 in multiple choice, even though I initially felt food about it. History and classics were on the same day, and I had a massive panic attack before Revs, walked in shaky, messed up my timing with only >20 mins left for the essay. And then I came home and realised I had made a massive mistake in my QD response. Classical studies I forgot the name of all the sculptors, panicking about Revs! Legal was easier for me, except I came home and realised I messed up and easy 4 marker. Literally I was happy with no exam. Thankyou VCAA for being happy for me!!!!

Hahaha, thankyou (excellent work as well :)). It was just that I chose not to study for economics at all (it was the day after). Instead I studied for english in it's place. I'd wake up at 5 and make mind-maps, read thesis articles, make posters, write essays etc. I wanted a 50 in Eng more than a 98 for Arts/Law at one point. And then I walked out thinking I had messed up 2 subjects rather than one - English & Econ.


 even though I initially felt food about it.

Even subconsciously haha.

Hewwego:

English: 37 (thinking exam 7,8,6, or if i'm lucky 8,8,7, but got good sacs)
Specialist: 38
Methods: 44
Chem: 42

+ Chinese (42) and Further Math (49)
ATAR: 98.95

Which hopefully means I can scrape in w dean's rural list, or at maybe biomed via SEAS  :)

Actual
English: 50 (  :o asdflk) [+13]
Specialist: 39 ehh [+1]
Methods: 47  :) [+3]
Chem: 48 [+6]

No idea how you can predict a 37 for English and then get a 50  :P

Massive effort though man! Congratulations

Just realised my comparison got dongled by the database being eaten, so I'll repost for prosperity... (comparisons in bold)
English: 40 --> 48 (+8)
Chemistry: 35 --> 31 (-4)
Methods: 35 --> 33 (-2)
German: 35 --> 39 (+4)
predicted atar of about 96-97 --> 98.6 (+2.6)
