Well done! Must be awesome doing better then expectedHi Guys!!!
I got my results earlier than 6 am (around 5:30 am)
I did better than expected. I couldn't remember my marks because I was just so stoked. They were in the mid 70s to late 70s. All of them were in Bands 3 & 4.
YAAAAAAAAASSSS!
Failure? You got fkn 4 band 6s and a high band 5, people like you insult those who got lower than you and are actually happy with their marks. You're like those annoying ppl in high school, "oH i faIledI feel like a goddam failure tbh
English - 86
3u maths - 93
4u maths - 90
Physics - 90
Software - 96
LEGIT Everyone's marks in our cohort are much worse than we ever predicted!
" whereas in reality they ended up getting marks in the 90s. Publically posting your outstanding results and then complaining that u feel like a failure only makes you come off as attention seeking, you couldve simply posted your marks without the "I feEl lIkE a GodDam faIluRe tbH" and you would've been fine, but NOOOO you had to add the stupid degenerate line. I was happy with my HSC marks because it meant I scored well enough to enter my preferred uni and degree. People need to stop with this bs, be happy you got such a good mark instead of finding a way to complain about it, not everyone is going to get a 99 atar. Stuff like this boils my blood honestly.Question though. If majority of the cohort does poorly, that means that lower marks should correlate to a higher rank/ATAR correct?
hahah chill. people have different expectations so it's fair for them to be upset over marks that might be considered good for you. it's not like they're whinging about it all the time to youFailure? You got fkn 4 band 6s and a high band 5, people like you insult those who got lower than you and are actually happy with their marks. You're like those annoying ppl in high school, "oH i faIled
people have different expectations and goals for themselves so pls try not to bash on another person's feelings about their marks, it might seem attention seeking but maybe they genuinely feel upset because the hsc can be such an emotionally draining experience sometimes
you guys just closed the loop on such a long journey thru y12, I hope you all get into the courses you want
Yeah different expectations sure, but its quite far from failure. If they're going to be upset, do it privately or with friends rather than an online public forum where there are people who've received lower marks than them and are genuinely upset about their performance. It's like rubbing salt into their wounds if someone who's achieved much higher than them complains about being a failure.
They're technically bashing the feelings of people who are upset because they got low marks... Being upset about really high marks builds a toxic, elitist mentality, and trust me I've been surrounded by people like this during my HSC year, it's not as prevalent in University.people have different expectations and goals for themselves so pls try not to bash on another person's feelings about their marks, it might seem attention seeking but maybe they genuinely feel upset because the hsc can be such an emotionally draining experience sometimes
anyway gl and congrats to everyone
Being the person w the lowest ATAR from my selective high school in my year, I know what you mean. But regardless of what mark people get - nothing makes anyone's opinion/emotions invalid.
Even if they've worked their asses off, they still need to be aware of what they say online and how it affects other people less well off than they are in terms of their academic performance. I'm sure a lot of people who have scored low atars have worked their asses off too but just didn't receive their desired results. I'm not invalidating their opinion or emotions I'm simply stating that it's insensitive to others who are much worse off than they are. You have to consider that the person who posted got all band 6s and one band 5 and labelled themselves as a failure, I'm sorry but I'm not having any of that. I've had ppl who r close to me, who've got worse results and were genuinely depressed for some time, and when someone else comes along with WAY higher marks and complains about being a failure, I'm sorry not having any of that.
Yeah fair enough - it can be very annoying when people make a big show of it and complain about it non stop, but they just said one sentence that was an honest reflection of how they felt about their results. If they went on for another 2 weeks then yeah, maybe tell them to stop. Also, it didn't help too much when they were upset and you wrote a reply that could be considered quite harsh
wow congrats!!!
It's much harsher to those who got a lower mark. I question if they were genuinely upset with those marks tho... Getting exemplary results and saying "I feel like a failure" isn't an honest reflection of how someone feels about their results. If someone failed or performed quite badly and then said "I feel like a failure" is an honest reflection of how someone feels about their results. You could respond with "failure is relative to the person" but this is absurd because a vast majority of people would not consider that a 'fail'.
But failure is relative to the person! For example, someone at a selective school with those marks might think that they failed, bc everyone else around them would be getting above 95 for all of their subjects. They also might feel like a failure if they had wanted to get into a difficult course such as med but couldn't get the ridiculously high atar needed. Again, people have different expectations and different goals, so they are entitled to feel like a failure when they don't reach those expectations.
