Hope everyone got the ATAR they were hoping for! This is the first year the ATAR Calculator hasn't crashed during this time of the year :) Earlier this year I upgraded the server software so it could handle the load better.

The ATAR Calculator normally has anywhere between 500,000 and 1.5 million calculations performed per month. There have been around 450,000 calculations performed in just the last two days, which is amazing. Here's a graph that doesn't really show much other than the spike :P:

soliloquy, the scores you see are the raw scores.

That's what I was assuming, because my vis com score would fall for sure. Thank you for answering

Hey sorry this is going to be a ridiculous question!
I've always been 100% sure that VTAC sends you your raw SS.
But now my friends say that it is my scaled score!
I'm right correct? They said you your raw score. Because if they didnt then
whats the point of their even being a "raw" score.

I was honestly hoping that I would manage to scrape in a 91 this morning.. Getting my score has just blown me away. I always wanted to do Arts/Law at Monash but was convinced I'd never get the score....

I'm particularly shocked at my Lit score - I thought I completely bombed out on my second essay and spent the whole night crying afterwards! I'm definitely getting a statement of marks to see how I went.

Btw, does anyone know how Special At Specialist went?

As of my stalking, he got <40 for Specialist Maths - pretty embarrassing given his comments and the fact that he went around rubbing his confidence into other people's faces.

But how can you find him and his result if you don't know his name (assuming you don't know his real name of course)?

Maybe he decided not to have his scores published in the paper? And if he did get < 40, then so what?

Unwarranted comment Paul, the bullying is not on imo

Over-confidence is one thing, but you don't need to call him out on a public forum (whether that's true or not isn't even 100% certain).
