My guess is pretty much the same as most:

1. MacRob
2. Mount Scopus
3. MHS

I don't think MGS would make it in the top 5 (possibly even top 10?).
2020 - 2021: Master of Public Health, The University of Sydney
2017 - 2020: Doctor of Medicine, The University of Melbourne
2014 - 2016: Bachelor of Biomedicine, The University of Melbourne
2013 ATAR: 99.95

Apparently 13% of Mount Scopus's year 12 cohort attained scores over 99. Epic.

Macrob: 15.9% over 99, 4 duces
still think theyll go first place xD

and as for 2nd place Mount Scopus, Bialik college, Yeshivah-Beth Rivkah College or Leibler Yavneh = small cohorts
private ones that should be considered - Ruyton Girls i reckon, others are hard to tell
 but GIRL SCHOOLS FTW! :D

My friend got me the newsletter, Macrob had a median of 96.35, ridiculously high. MHS had 95.15, so I imagine one of the private schools beat us!
vce: english, methods, spesh, chemistry, physics, geography.

Ancient Persian Proverb; " I Wept because i had no Shoes, until i saw a man with no feet!"

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out --
Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out --
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out --
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me -- and there was no one left to speak for me.

Mac.Rob had over 44% of study scores over 40, as well as the highest number of 99.95s in the state. If any school beats that...

you guys still got better than Scotch lol: "The median score was 90.35 (125 of the 249 boys scored 90.35 or above)."
and check out penleigh and essendons: "The median ATAR score at PEGS was 88.65, placing 50% of our students in the top 11% of the country"

Au contraire, they leave school on Friday at 1pm as Saturday is the sabbath for them, hence no school, no work, etc.
Mount Scopus is really close to my school, we went there on an Religious Education excursion last year. Got to see the synagogue and talk to some of the students there.

EDIT: @TrueTears My school's not first this year, we only had one 99.95, and median ATAR 92. Anyway, I don't think it's possible for my school to have VCE scores that high when a large portion of the really smart kids do IB, not VCE.
