ATAR/Study Score Prediction...compare to actual on 16th :D

[Furbob]

they weren't very specific

They mean ATAR CUTOFFs not ATARs.

this year the ATAR cutoff could drop to about 89-90 because there are more places available.

Don't fret!

that's a big "could" haha - will be crossing my fingers on that :X

[Greatness]

Gahhh i just checked atarcalc, stupid peer pressure!
Im not gonna post study scores, but i will post atar predictions (i was a bit harsh with my study scores as well lol - i mean i dont want to get over confident)
2010: 94.60
2007: 95.40
I'll take a 95 any day
It seems i might fall 1-2 atar points below the clearly in for some monash courses
But my teacher was saying that the Go8 Unis will add extra points or something to your atar if you do a lote?... Anyone got any solid info on this?

[nubs]

Go8?

[Russ]

Group of 8, the best 8 universities in the country. Our (bad) version of the golden triangle or the ivy league.

And I've never heard anything about extra points for a LOTE post ATAR release

Group of Eight:

[paulsterio]

Monash, Melbourne, Sydney, UNSW, Adelaide, UQ, ANU, Western Australia

oh and btw Bazza16, I can't reply to your PM cause I'm using an iPad and yes I'm interstate

[paulsterio]

I know UQ gives bonus for LOTE

[Phy124]

I'll try to be a pessimist with these:

Business Management: 49
Chemistry: 49
Physics: 49
Methods: 49
English: 48 (Expecting English to let me down as per usual...)

Just kidding...

Not really sure what my ATAR is looking at because I'm not sure what impact derived exam scores have. If I had to estimate, I would say in the low 90's.

I'm really just hoping to get that 91.2 (or whatever it is this year) for Eng@Monash, otherwise I'll have to hope SEAS will pull me through 

[Greatness]

Erghh.... Maybe it had something to do with Monash's middle band... I dunno just making stuff up now But yeh it would be mad if some of the clearly in drops by 1-2 points XD

[SenriAkane]

Pessimistic:
 English (ESL) Score: 37
Mathematical Methods (CAS) Score: 37
 Specialist Mathematics Score: 38
Chemistry Score: 40
Physics : 38
ATAR 95.1

Should be :
English (ESL) Score: 40
Mathematical Methods (CAS) Score: 39
Specialist Mathematics Score: 43
Chemistry Score: 44
Physics : 42
ATAR 98.15

meh... both should get me into Monash BEng/BSci(Chem)

[xdecay]

this may be off topic..
but could someone post a link to the article which contains info regarding the decrease in ATAR clearly-in for courses this year?

i'm overseas at the moment and the search bar is completely out of whack. can't find it anywhere.

[ninwa]

University places to open up as entry scores fall
