doubt atar will really matter to employees its just ATAR for university applications ... and then getting some mad qualifications :D

getting an ATAR is a pretty big deal if u wanna get into uni and do the course u need to get the qualifications for ur future job.. PLUS... its like 1 entire year of your life.. if u come out with nothing youd b pretty damn pissed off
I'll add to that... not just 1 year of your life.. but 1 torturous year of year life which is considered to be one of the hardest you will ever face!

Some people are just too stupid to understand that! *sigh*

The main purpose of an ATAR is to get into uni. An ATAR would be helpful for you for a job perhaps, but at least complete Yr 12, cause if you don't finish HS then it's REALLY hard to find a job.

What do you want to do? Many jobs don't require uni.

Thats the truth though... many shit jobs dont require uni indeed, all the good ones do. If McDonalds is your thing, dont bother with this year.

And 2011's, boy you guys are in for a nice year next year :D

haha yep, but back to the point of this forum

SERIOUSLY FIND A WAY TO GET MORE UNITS SO YOU DONT HAVE TO DO PATHWAYS OR SOMETHING COS THAT WILL BE MEGA SHIT AND YOU WILL NOT ENJOY IT.

i've got friends who'r doing it this year and they regret it seriously plus it probably feels like SHIT if you do worse.

You CAN get a degree and still get a shit job, true!
You CAN not get a degree and still get a good job, BUT, you make it 100x harder on yourself!

more degrees than you realise have these as units for them...
Wait a minute what am I thinking! ahahaha!

So you're telling me that PASSING Uni courses is harder than getting 95ish ATAR to get into them in the first place? Cmon, dont make me laugh! :haha:

why can't you just admit that you are taking a very narrow perspective on this issue
you make too many careless assumptions
like that doing the hsc + uni degree aren't difficult years, and hard on people, especially on those to whom it is unsuited
and that everybody can only achieve their best in uni and through the hsc

i feel sorry for you because you're getting a lot of hate
but you shouldn't make large, oversimplified and potentially offensive statements
like what's up with that mcdonalds remark
rude

You're right, the McDonalds remark was harsh, and I'm sorry for it. I'm not implying that people are idiots for not getting into Uni, and have to go and work at Macca's. I'm implying that if you have NO CHANCE whatsoever to get an ATAR, going through the pressures and stress of this year is quite simply: NOT worth it!

i agree that HSC isnt that hard and we're probably taking the wrong take on this by making it seem as some major determiner of LIFE. when really its just a determiner of university.

however, i do agree with him to a point- getting a degree with qualifications does make life easier in that you have both skills and experience

@twistedrebel the number of people who drop out and then turn into amazing human beings (ie. Bill Gates) make up a very small amount of our population and are honestly just LUCKY or naturally gifted+talented... its not that easy for the rest of us...
