No Centre Number (1 Viewer)

[Zen2613]

Hello all,
What would happen if you wrote down everything needed on the test paper except your centre number ? I don't even know what it's used for seems kind of pointless...

Your centre number is on the attendance sheet (blue).

Oh ok, why does it tell you to write it down then ?

It"s for backup in case you screw up your student number. Means they can track you back to the right school.

dw your paper gets checked by another few people before they send it off to make sure the numbers are all g

Each school have different centre numbers, it also allows schools to be ranked after the Atars are given out to see how many did well in that school compared to other schools.

Schools and exam centres are not the same. An exam centre may include the home school, other local schools not large enough to conduct their own exams, and students studying by distance education who live nearby.

Also, schools cannot be ranked by ATAR as it is only known to individual students and UAC.
