Median ATAR vs Median Selection Rank (1 Viewer)

[011235]

A friend and I noticed that for UNSW comp sci, there is a significant difference between the median selection rank and median atar.



What's going on here? Most other courses don't have such a large difference between the two, particularly high in the 90s. Does UNSW have a lot of adjustment factors? Does the typical compsci student have a lot of adjustment factors?

Also, what happens if your adjustment factors exceed 100 (eg. you got an atar of 96 and got 5 adjustment factors)?

Selection rank includes adjustment factors (bonus points) hence skewing the data towards 100.
