ATAR calculators - how good and how to use well (1 Viewer)

[loverice]

Hi everyone,

Just trying to get a general consensus of what everyone here thinks about the atar calculators currently out there ?

I stumbled upon these calculators (didn't even know such things existed!) as i was trying to see what kind of marks i would need in my HSC subjects to get 99+, for my upcoming Year 11 subject selection.

I know that my actual school's rank and my rank within the school are 2 other big factors which these calcs don't consider. But other than that (for arguments sake) - what is the general consensus of how good they are ?


ATAR Calculator - seems like this one is popular around here

The SAM right here - looks like 2nd favourite and well supported by this forum. In what way is the advanced SAM different / advanced ?

Atar calculator - looks plain but does the job

Vision Education | ATAR Calculator - looks okay but seems less well known

Others - have i missed any ?

I like this one: Atar calculator because I find it easier to use.
This one is pretty good too: Vision Education | ATAR Calculator
I don't really like SAM. The design isn't very appealing.
This one: ATAR Calculator is alright.

I used the sam atar calculator and it gave me an atar that was the exact same as what i actually got. the sam atar calculator is really accurate.
