90. I got 74 assessment and 82 for the exam mark which hasn't helped at all.
I also didn't do well for Ancient history, ranked 1st internally, but in a very weak class, and finished with 81 HSC mark.
Oh well, I have early admission to UOW so all is well :) I wanted law, regardless of location really.

I hope this is trolling.

Firstly, shouldn't really be bagging out TAFE. Secondly, only 'low' ATARs are needed at many rural or less popular universities(50-70 can get you into quite a few courses). And if your ATAR was 30-50 ish, doing tafe and then progressing to uni is a great option. My brother got just shy of 60 so he qualified to do some TAFE alongside his ideal uni course, no time down at all and he ended up doing really well in his last sem of uni.

Anyway, there's always pathways.

I'm not intending to bag out tafe, however it is obvious that one would prefer Usyd than tafe... unless it is arts and tafe offers accounting or something.
