Overview

About the ATAR

The ATAR is a rank between 0 and 99.95 that shows a student's position relative to their age group. It's calculated from scaled subject results and is the main entry criterion for most Australian university courses.

ATAR FAQs

Can tutoring really raise an ATAR?

Targeted tutoring in the subjects that matter most can lift results meaningfully, especially when started early in Year 11.

Should my child choose subjects for scaling?

Scaling matters, but students usually perform best in subjects they enjoy and are good at. We help weigh both.
