I think the topic speaks for it's self.
Did anyone here receive one??? Congratulations if you did!
-
There are 2 topics like this already. Don't think they've all been sent out yet, if any. Did you?
-
Whoops, i'm clearly very out of teh VN loop >.< mind linking me burbs? Cheers :)
and no, i didn't do anywhere near well enough to get one haha
-
There'll be a few of us around - fuzzylogic will receive at least two, I should hopefully get one for Lit, and Aurelian will get one for Philosophy.
-
Also a few year 11's, thushan's a definite for Methods, and also Burberry...

actually thushan won't be able to get one this year (i mean he only perfect'd scored EVERYTHING), you need to have done two maths to get a maths premiers award IRRC

haha, also what's the requirement for the all round achiever award? 45 raw plus for at least five subjects right?
-
Nah 46+ raw for five subjects...
And yeah, no premier's for methods alone... He could get bio can't remember how high his exam marks were though.

so what do you generall need in methods and spesh to get a premiers award? Considering he got full marks for methods, or is it based on SS alone.

Got one :) Economics. Is the ceremony worth going to? It seems a bit dull.

They have good food. Wear a suit.
-
To anyone who got one, CONGRATULATIONS, but did you just get the one letter today? it said something about students receiving a separate thing to RSVP to, but I don't seem to have received it.
also, can someone please explain the maths criteria for me-- mine says Specialist Maths, so I'm guessing it's possible to get one just in methods, which would mean thushan could? :D

I don't own a suit. I'll try to find something that doesn't have holes in it and isn't from savers.

Do you know how many marks you lost?
-
I don't know for sure, but going by the answers posted on the internet last year, I couldn't find any marks lost. But I don't want to say that for sure...I really don't know.

Congrats to everyone! :D
What do you get if you receive the Premier's Award? Just curious :P
-
No idea!
-
R3sp3ct
Hmmm, not sure why this got -3.
But as for what you get, probably a certificate and satisfaction? The awards are so long after the exam and results that they lose much of their appeal, though that's not to say its an honour to get one.
-
you guys are awesome, good job on the awards :)
-
school lost my re-enrolment sheet, did another one for me on the phone and forgot to tick the "i will receive awards" box... even though i stressed that i wanted that one ticked.
sue?

On average, what's the cutoff in terms of ATAR?
-
ATAR isn't used as part of the calculations. Uses individual study scores without scaling.

Save save save!
Too bad Peter Garrett's ugly name is printed on the certificate. It detracts from the awesomeness of the award. :p

Are you SURE about that? Is that published anywhere, or just assumed? I got one, and whilst my scores were good enough got 99.95, my raws weren't brilliant among top performers. I know that schools have to nominate students, so perhaps they consider ATAR/outstanding achievement in certain subjects. Olympiad also matters (I know for a fact that medallists automatically receive the prize).
-
Definitely not sure about it lol.

Was just quoting from the above thread. :P
Quote
The order of merit for the award of the prize is based on their Australian Student Prize score. In Victoria, the Australian Student Prize score is calculated by the addition of the Study Scores obtained in the past two years for the best four studies plus ten percent of Study Scores obtained in up to a maximum of two other VCE studies. Extension studies undertaken at University and VET studies may contribute to the score.
-
Yup, that's what it says on the VCAA website. Hmm, interesting... I wouldn't have thought my raws were strong enough, but oh well.

Better than Julia Gillard's name. :)

Yeah I wouldn't think the Australian Student Prize would go on ATAR, my score wouldn't be in the top 500 in the state and I got one. Very nice surprise.

yeah you got some killer raw scores there :D
-
I got one too - I reckon if you get 2+ 50s, or three high 40s scores, you're probably in.
-
@ scocliffe09: haha what happened to chem and english ?

2.5 in chem unit 3 - full for unit 4 and SACs
-
I didn't get anything :)
-
ive got one for further maths :D
-
haha see all you nerds there :) suit up!
-
Next monday right? I'll be the guy in the suit.
-
yeah next monday, we gotta be there early or something.
haha sweet, i'll be repping michael jackson with my formal suit ;)
-
I'm suiting up! Hopefully others do too.
-
i think you kinda have to suit up, i think the dress code said so?
-
It says semi formal I think. I'm not entirely sure what that means.

Wear a shirt and trousers, have a tie but chuck it in your pocket just in case. No need for a suit jacket tho.
-
does anyone know what they give to the students as a reward?
-
You get a medal :) pretty sure and a certificate

.... well actually a pretty framed certificate. :P
So what did everyone think of the whole event? :)
-
I thought it was a LOT less boring than I thought it would be. Loved the music, and the food. And apparently I know Victoria Huang. I feel pretty cool.
-
It was pretty good :) Much better than I expected. Good to meet some peeps as well :D
-
They (the organisers) should really think about how people are going to eat while holding their massive frames.
(lol...but seriously it was good otherwise =) )
-
IKR?
Those frames were pretty big. :P
-
Cumbersome to say the least! Shame I didn't meet any of you VN people today!

I was probably sitting next to you.
-
lol...I awkwardly introduced myself to burbs (he might not even remember). I also talked to Thushan since we were sitting next to each other. yeh...I suppose he's pretty good...;)
-
I saw EZ, and I recognised Thushan (how could I not. Bright red blazer from Scotch, right? :P) but besides that I didn't meet anyone from VN. :(
That side, I did get to meet a few other people which was nice. :)

I remember, but it took me a few minutes to understand what the hell a Pixon was. I thought you were telling me you are a Canon printer.

It was held at the Melbourne Convention Centre on South Wharf. Quite a nice venue. Lots of leftover food though.
