Can always end up dropping one of the degrees if you change your mind later on.

In case anyone's interested:

92.5 - without any band 6s (surprising)

What ATAR calculators told me:
Talent 100 = 93.75

The only thing that saved me were internals

Here's my marks:
Exam/Internal/HSC/band
Advanced English = 79/85/82/5
Financial Services = 85/5 (No internals - kind of weird though because I did a trial)
3U Maths = 80/95/88/E3
4U Maths = 68/90/79/E3
Music 2 = 90/87/89/5

Really surprised overall - I was legit expecting around 70 based on the amount of exam prep I did.

Also, no-one seems to have ranked for Financial Services - 5 marks away from getting it then :/

Did anybody else get a way higher atar than expected? I was stoked with my 97.20!! Scaling was kind to me [emoji24][emoji24] I almost couldn’t believe it when I saw it haha

I got 95.60 which is exactly what I wanted, I've met the conditions for my med offer so I'm over the moon!! I can't believe my 69 Ext 2 mark actually counted towards my ATAR and not 85 physics... according to HSCNinja the last time that would have happened was 2009.

update, i think my effort reflects a 96.5, i shouldmt be so bitter

Bc dux at my school got 99.45 and like my atar goal was 99,.5 and i thought in could never compete with her so like how could i beat her even if she couldnt even get 99.5 (i hope that makes sense)

also im drunk sooooooo, idk maybe ill feel worse in the morning but all is fine right now

Just shows really how much effort goes into those 99 atars which i honestly undreestimated so like im in the wrong tbh

im like a switchblade just reversing my emotions real quick, and also i beat my brothers 96.35 so like dab
