WHY DO  I BOUTHER GOIN ON THIS FORUMM. makes me feel inferior with all these 99+ haha :/
Tell me about it right, my ATAR of 89 seems insignificant haha...

I got a 98.25 and mine still seems pretty shitty in comparison lol. Only just above the median.

EDIT:

Just on the median lol.

Prediction I wrote was 99.20, but I kind of thought I'd get a bit higher than that... so I was pretty accurate overall, though chem was a bit lower than I thought.

Predicted Chem and Methods exactly. English was 1 off and Physics and Spesh were 2 off.

ATAR would've been correct if spesh didnt scale as high but guess it did :)

I predicted that you were bs-ing eng lang!


My predictions were alright for spesh and chem, off for the rest. Happy with that result :)

what app is that?! :O looks awesome!!

I predicted you would get 99.95 and you got 99.95, what more could I say? :P LOL!!

In terms of my own scores, I was quite off pre-exams
English - 48, MM - 50, SM - 50, Chem - 40, Physics - 40

But my predictions after exams were pretty accurate
English was spot on, Methods was a little higher, Spesh a little lower, Physics and Chem were both pretty much where I predicted them to be

ATAR is higher than predicted due to spesh scaling

How so? Are the number different than on the VCAA scaling report?
