I wouldn't really grieve the mark, since for whatever degree i choose (since its not gonna be med / dentistry), there is usually a path I could take to get there. I think I would be devastated and would grieve the fact that I spent 2 years of my life being miserable from school stress, wishing away my last years of high-school, all for nothing basically. But the next day I'll still wake up and have my up and go and pat my dog so it would be okay

weird subtle flex but ok
ruse median atar like 99
everyone has different standards and expectations, some may think 85 is fantastic, others may think 99.90 is horrible.

Which school?

Also with an 85 you can basically get into every degree except medicine & scholarship programs.

i wouldn't say every degree
probs about 30-40% of degrees you need higher than 85
examples include law, actuarial, maths, some engineering, even just commerce at certain unis
law and actuary need like 98 at most unis, they both 95 at MQ tho

That isn't including bonus marks. Almost always at least 5 bonus marks should be able to achieved, making an 85 effectively a 90.

Majors are pretty easy to swap for engineering without loss assuming acute subject planning. An 85 will bring you to unsw general engineering with 5 bonus marks - pick major after first year. The lowest last year was 79 at unsw not including bonus marks. 85 gets you into any engineering program a student wants in Australia.

I wasn't thinking about law / actuarial at some unis. I guess this is where it applies as well. But, certainly its not even almost 35/40% of degrees. It like 5% at specific unis. Virtually 100% if the student considers a few unis.

honest efforts are usually rewarded with honest marks.
As long as you study well, you should have a rough idea of what your getting by the end of the HSC.
(ie: You will probably know what bracket you probably will fall into, 80-85, 85-90, 90-95 etc)

85 is a decent ATAR anyway, and will get you into most undergrad degrees save for law, actuarial and med. You'll be fine.
