QTAC and ATAR
• Students get a number between 30.00 and 99.95. An ATAR of 80.00 indicates that the student is in the top 20% of the State.
• In Year 11 Units 1 & 2 will generally mirror that of Units 3 & 4 in assessment. This will result in most subjects running 3 assessment tasks with some subjects adding an exam at the conclusion of Unit 2 to replicate the External Exam.
