[Thorny1503]

Just out of interest, why are you waiting for the mail?

I want to be able to open the letter and find out my atar at the same time

I don't want to go online and find my results. I want to wait for the letter from vcaa and find out then

Personal preference for a hard copy? If I had the patience I would prefer it that way as well, but unfortunately that's a trait I'm unable to possess

Does anybody know if the Herald Sun will have their online Database of 40+ scores available from around 12 am like last year?

Last year it was definitely a mistake, so it's unlikely they'll do it twice, as they could risk losing the right to publish the results at all if they did it again

That said, I am unsure what time the list is actually supposed to be released haha. Does anyone on the forum know?

anyone else wake up thinking today was results day?

No one knows that really and last time was far from an intentional favour to students, it was an accident and i believe it was eventually pulled too. 7 hours after that isn't too long of a wait considering this has been 13 years in the making hey

didnt even sleep properly last night THIS TIME TOMORROW WE WILL HAVE OUR RESULTS !!

Could any geniuses help me out

I usually spend a few hours on the computer each day but lately it's been 2 or so max as I've been on holiday spending most of my time outside at the beach. Yesterday however, the weather was stormy, humid and horrible so I stayed inside all day on my computer until dinner time, mainly on ATARnotes just reading. It's weird but I look up and down, left or right and I get this really bad pain at the back of my eyes or eye sockets. Is this just eye strain and will go away? I've googled and alot of people have had it but I can't put my finger on whether it's sinusitis or eye strain etc.

Yeah after I had a dream about it (no scores given in dream though)

Tried to nab my results off my uncle early yesterday (he's a senior editor at The Age), apparently the woman usually in charge of education is on holidays at the moment, so some new guy he doesn't know is tackling the 40+ list this year and he couldn't help me.
Fingers crossed this new guy pulls a Herald Sun?

so when does the hardcopy of the 40+ achievers Herald Sun paper get released? 16th or 17th of December?
