UAI.

Not complainin' or anything, but 100 >>>>> 99.95 (if only in spirit).

Even the teachers at school were like "it just doesn't feel the same"

I reckon it should be STAR instead of ATAR, with the S representing students :p

You were capable of 100 though. For the rest of us mere mortals - there really is not difference in terms of number. :p

They should rename it from Australian Tertiary Admission Rank to Australian Student Score.

UAI. It rolls off better, plus there was the elusive 100 instead of 99.95 (what can all these James Ruse mothers brag about now?)

I like UAI because the 08ers were the last ones to do it D:

Try saying 09er or 010er... sounds shit like ATAR

The cut-offs would be different if this year was UAI and no ATAR
