Don't see the benefit of people keeping their ATARs a secret,

I didn't keep mine a secret; I just didn't tell anybody because I knew once I got into uni it wouldn't matter. /shrug

 

[Sarebs]

Haha I think I'll keep it a secret from my parents and brother for a while... I know it'll kill em! But I won't have any trouble telling anyone else, your ATAR isn't really a reflection on yourself.

my mum wont let me keep it from her she'll want to know everything!

Same with my parents... they will go off something shocking when I don't tell them! I'm sure the neighbours will hear the yelling. But my plan may have hit a snag... I think my brother knows my pin and student number

Personally, I can see the benefit in not telling people ATAR's.
I think I will tell my teachers if they ask, but other than that, not much.

Just a question. Is there anything stopping people from lying about their ATAR's? People could say whatever they want, aye.

 

[Phouna]

yeah... any less than 99 and i wouldnt tell anyone... less than 99 is just shameful.

I think that was sarcasm >_<"

My mate told me our ATARs will ALL be publish....hmmm.... I dunno if it is true... I mean that newspaper will be one hell of a novel then XD

I seriously would not care what ATAR my school mate gets-it is ONLY A NUMBER! I rather them tell me they achieved what they need to get into whatever course and uni they worked their butt off for. But that is just me.

Yeah, if people judge you on some silly number, then it's a reflection on them not you. But I know what you mean, I'm lucky I don't know many people like that.

I don't know why people make such a big deal out of it.
Even if mine is shit I'm not gonna keep it a secret. The number doesn't define me anyway
I'll probably get somewhere in the 80's and I wont be satisfied but oh well its just a rank, I will haul ass in the future and make monies.

I won't reveal my exact ATAR. I will only tell my school (coz they ask me).

Apart from that I will just say 99+ or 98+ or whatever.

If you want to find my exact ATAR, it won't be hard getting it coz my school always reveals the ATAR scores that people got lol.

p.s. i won't ask anyone what they got unless they look super happy or something. i know the stress when it comes to being asked what they got when they got worse atar than they thought.

 

[ehtefaz.hedayet]

my school only reveals the highest ATAR in the school. Everything else is kept secret.

 

[shady145]

my school rings up everyone to see what ATAR they get =S except forthe people that arn't getting an ATAR

lol @ 'except for the people that aren't getting an ATAR'. it'd be hilarious if they called up and the kid's like 'ummm, i didnt get one'

Asian families will demand to know, and then relatives start gossiping about how shit you are compared to your other relatives.

 

[boganxcore]

how meaningless is our existence when our entire lives are dependent on a number?

brb existentialism
