Each year, and for every study, the mean study score is set at The Graded Assessments are different for each study and contribute towards the study score in different ways. If you complete at least two Graded Assessments, and have satisfactorily completed both unit 3 and 4, you will be awarded a study score. Each graded assessment in a study contributes a specific percentage, or weighting, to the final study score.
Once the scores have been standardised, weighted and totalled your total score is compared with the scores of all other students in that study and then converted to a score out of Read how the GAT relates to school coursework and examinations for more information. Therefore students should attempt to score as high as possible on all parts of the GAT. Achievement on the GAT is a good predictor of achievement on other assessments. If students have done well on the GAT, then their achievements are likely to be high in their school assessments and examinations.
You need to complete 16 units to be awarded the VCE. If you are transferring into year 11 or 12 you may need to apply for your interstate or overseas studies to be credited towards your VCE to help you reach 16 units.
Your school can apply for credit for the VCE on your behalf. Ask your VCE coordinator about what to do next. The lowest automatically reported rank is These students will have completed at least four scored VCE studies at the Units 3 and 4 level, at least one of which must be from the English group. For course selection and all other purposes they are treated as equivalent.
If a student has applied to institutions in other Australian states they will be considered on the basis of their ATAR. Each state recognises the ATAR of other states as equivalent. This is achieved by the states by using a similar methodology and a statistical cross-checking process. Applicants granted official interrupted study status by the VCAA should seek advice from VTAC about the applicability of rules and provisions described here. In general, the rules that require completion of Units 3 and 4 in the one year may be waived for applicants granted interrupted study status in the studies concerned.
The higher of the two will be recorded and reported as their ATAR. Ranking for courses will be based on the highest ATAR achieved. This is an exciting time of the year.
You are celebrating the end of Year 12, have received your ATAR and are looking to begin the course of your dreams early next year. As you embark on your exciting journey, please note the following words of caution about privacy.

The information used, and how it is used, varies between institutions and courses.
First, an applicant must meet minimum tertiary entrance requirements. For higher education courses this is usually satisfactory completion of the VCE, this includes the completion of Units 3 and 4 in one of the VCE English studies in the one year.
The same minimum requirement applies for most VET courses; however, it does vary between institutions. For more information about minimum tertiary entrance requirements please see the VTAC website. Second, an applicant must meet any essential requirements and admission criteria. The third factor often used in selection is an overall measure of how well an applicant performed in their VCE studies compared with all other VCE students.
Other factors may be considered in selection. Many courses use a range of additional selection mechanisms such as interviews, performance auditions, assessment of folios and tests such as aptitude tests.
Other criteria may include specific performance in prerequisite studies or other studies relevant to the course. Applications for special consideration are also taken into account. All universities are committed to considering around 20 per cent of applicants on a range of criteria broader than just the ATAR.
After the release of VCE results and ATAR, you have the opportunity to reconsider your course preferences prior to the first round of tertiary offers. The change of preference period allows time for you to consider your options based on your results, as well as to consider your preferences based on feedback from interviews, folio presentations and auditions.
Aside from this, I almost never think back to that day in when I pressed a series of clunky little buttons on my black Nokia phone to discover my final VCE score. However, on orientation day, I was a blubbering mess as I signed up for compulsory maths and macroeconomics subjects. I really only wanted to do arts subjects. A kind university volunteer gently suggested commerce was the wrong path for me and helped me figure out how to apply for an irregular offer.
What I remember about VCE results day is the feeling I had as I hung up the phone - it is a feeling worth remembering. Swirls of joy, excitement, fear.

Online tomorrow, we will also have a searchable database of the entire honour roll. Seven per cent of students received an ATAR above 99, a jump from last year. Nearly forty per cent of the class attained an ATAR of 90 and above.
