I exceeded my goal by 7.25 yay!!!!

I agree 110%. Hard work was the key for me, and although I did subjects that some people say don't scale well, I got an ATAR over 97 (also at a school ranked around 600). I did at least 3 hours of study / homework per day on weeknights and all weekend during Year 12 was spent on homework and...

If I were you I wouldn't set my heart on a specific number - I would just aim for, say, 90+ or 95+. That's what I did :)

I have been accepted into Animal Science already but I'm hoping I might get a spot in the Vet program. If not I'll happily do Animal Science. YAY!

Mine were stoked!! They usually aren't the kind to brag about their kids but my dad has been telling all his family and friends! And Mum was so excited, her voice became super high pitched :)

+1 I owe my Teachers everything! Thank you just isn't enough!

I am on the all rounders list (still extremely shocked!) and if I could offer a couple of simple pieces of advice they would be: - Work extremely hard. You need to be devoted and dedicated to succeed. Also, when Teachers see you working hard they will be more willing to help you wherever...

Yes, me! What course are you going into?

That is 97 Moderated (not raw). I should have specified that earlier.

Thank you :) :)

For distinguished achievers and allrounders, can somebody please tell me which newspapers the lists are published in? Thank you :)

Wow! So happy! :)

I will PM you (it is nice to retain a degree of anonymity).
