I guess you would have a chance but definitely not 100%. In the past I know the cut-offs for that scholarships has been around 99.2-99.3 ATARs.

I guess I was more concerned that Monash would "run out" of scholarships to give, and not be able to consider my ATAR because they used all 40. Do Monash release sources for what ATAR attains that scholarship or is this word of mouth?

Double labs: Would not recommend double labs, unless unavoidable, especially back-to-back ones. You have assessments in labs as well, so it won't be helpful. (This is coming from experience.)
Re: 9/10am -5/6pm everyday was pretty standard for me in basically all 4 of my years (except in hectic assignment times), however, I made sure to keep lots of 2hr+ breaks in that for lunch and study. So, not really draining, as long as you build in solid breaks for yourself.

If you have experienced any type of financial disadvantage, you should be eligible for the Monash UniStart Support Scholarship, which is a default financial disadvantage scholarship for anyone not receiving a scholarship already (excluding a few). I don't know if that helps, but here's the link for it anyway. (ATAR not considered there.)

Yeah, I sort of meant that I feared that Monash would give out all 40 scholarships to first-round applicants. I might look at your link though, thanks.

Anecdotal (not sure if actual stats are avaliable) but this is from some students with 99.2s missing out. However, I should note I am basing this off numbers from the past few years so could have changed (higher/lower) this year.
