Thanks for the reply- regarding the pay differences between orthoptists and optometrists, I am not too sure. I've looked on labourmarketinsights.com.au yet I can't find any data. However, your comment about orthoptics being a niche profession is right, as it seems there are 10 times as my...

Yes, I've done some googling, and it seems like the average salary for optometrists is around 120k. Most optometrists are hired by companies which bulk bill eye tests with Medicare. The pay is much higher than other allied health professions (such as podiatry, speech pathology and OT), but the...

kinda worried about the options tbh. The structure changes each year- the past 2 years NESA have put in 12/3/5 markers for each section, but previous years have been 12/8 markers. Hopefully they also are lenient on us with types of questions in options- haven't really revised sports med that...

How'd you find the paper? NESA usually uploads the paper a few days after but sometimes it can get leaked a bit earlier...

Hey all, Unfortunately, I go to a top 500 school but I would like an ATAR estimate. Subjects: PDHPE- 75, rank=4/23 (usually 1-2 students get B6) (Standard= High) Biology- 78, rank=6/20 (usually 1 student gets B6) (Standard= High) English Standard- 65, rank=13/40 (sometimes 1 student gets B6)...
