Apparently xD,
Maths was 46 and I got 46 for Further :D
Written.. 34 (I expected around this for english language)
Humanities. 33 (economics = 31 ->33 scaled, accounting expected 34)
Also last year got a 38 for maths, and also a 40 scaled for methods..

The GAT is rubbish. Let me put it into perspective for you. In 2009 it predicted me a score of 28 for english. This year it predicted me a 30. In reality I got a 46. The GAT is very, very wrong and I've always been a good english student.

No, just everyone who consented to publishing of a raw 40+ SS (yr10, 11 or 12)

Hahaha I got below average for the written communication part. One section I did alright but the other piece I just went on a rant about how the world is a shit place. Come to think of it... how did I pull out a 29? O_O
The GAT is such a waste of time. Half the questions are ridiculously ambiguous. You just have to take those results with a grain of salt.

Maths/Science/Tech: 49
Maths Methods: 50.
That's pretty damn close. If GAT results do reflect Study scores, I'm expecting a 45 for English, which would be great!

Absolutely. The GAT is most probably one of the most important aspects of VCE.
