the end

Within approximately half an hour, the last four digits of our academic lives thus far will be released. Our HSC marks were released yesterday, and most of us decided upon silence and minimal mention of whatever marks we attained.

I can't say I'm entirely thrilled about my marks, because there were a lot of 'could-have-been's. Especially 4u. I expected a few more marks, but I can definitely say that I underperformed in the actual exam. What saved my rear was the internal (which should have been a bit higher, I think, but I'm alright with that). Then we have English. Oh English, how you plague me so. I got the exact same mark for English in the School Certificate. I'm alright with that too.

But Physics.

I swear, I expected at least close to a band six, but I heard that first in our CVHS cohort didn't receive a band six either. I don't think anyone in our grade received a band six for Physics :(... It was my lowest mark, and I knew I was walking out of the exam with a mark that would drag down my average LMFAO. Oh well, I'm resigned to that mark anyway.

Overall, I'm satisfied. I expected a tiny bit more, a few marks added on to what I have, but I'm happy with it.

I can get into my detour course and I am over the moon with that thought.

MY ATAR WAS RELEASED. I am happy, but the ATAR calculators let me down by .25 HAHA I'm happy nonetheless!

Good luck to those who are about to receive their ATARs!!!!!
