I still have my program from last time, so I'll upload a RAR with this year's info as soon as I can be bothered copying down the lists from the Herald Sun website. If you're lucky I'll get it done tonight.

That would be fantastic and much appreciated.

it looks like something VB could do :P but i don't have time these few days, and I don't have visualstudio installed right now, gar!

it might be something that can be chucked in to a [massive] excel spreadsheet. probably not a wise idea though as the file size would get ridiculous, and the time it takes to open the file would be tedious....

Publish the code so that we can use it in case you disappear for whatever reason :D

Java (and the other C++ family of languages, with appropriate libraries) is somewhat superior to VB in terms of string manipulation, in my opinion.

he might have not meant it to be open source

if it gets the job done, i really don't see the need to classify superiority

Okay, that was tedious. Next time I'm going to make a scraper to automate copying the lists from the Herald Sun website.

Anyway, here is a RAR containing all the data from 2006-2008: http://www.quppa.net/ (updated)

Remember not to read too much into the 'rankings'. School populations and scaling are not taken into account, and of course some people opt not to have their results published.

I should note that there are 3 scores missing from the file: the Herald Sun's pages for Bosnian, Indo FL and Portuguese weren't published correctly. Perhaps someone with a hard copy of the paper could tell me what the scores should be.

Also, what's 'Music (VCE VET)'? No such subject is listed on the VCAA website.
