What page will you check first on Friday...ATAR or SS?

So on Friday, in the midst of all the emotions we'll be feeling as the results page goes online...which page are you going to click first?

In case anyone didn't know, there's two webpages, one that simply lists your ATAR, and one that lists your individual study scores.

So the question begs, and for what reasons do you base your decision on...which will you go to first?

UMAT: 69 | 56 | 82 | = [69 / 98th Percentile]
2012: MBBS I @ Monash

Definitely ATAR.

If I look at study scores then the first score I'll see will be my 20 in Art. If I look at my ATAR I *might* be so happy I won't care about individual results.

I'll probably do the whole covering-the-score-with-hand thing and reveal one number at a time for my ATAR though...

Atar is the only thing that matters right..? Why click SS? Unless you think you're borderline 25/30 or whatever else you need to get into some course.
