Do you have to be really smart in junior school to excel in senior, e.g 99.95 atar (1 Viewer)

[Aizzaku-desu]

Basically I just put half effort into studying and schoolwork in junior school and sat around the B- C+ marks, Mainly because I had no idea what career path I would want to follow and how exactly I would get there so I just cruised through school, but I've made up my mind and hope its not too late to pursue the career I wish to follow, although this career path has a high atar demand. 96+

A career path is never locked by ATAR.

You always have the option to transfer if you don't succeed the first time.

Of course not. I was an ordinary student, who studied hard in later years and obtained a 99.90 ATAR. If you take an ordinary person, who's willing to devote a great deal of time to study, thinking, learning and getting feedback, then they can get a high ATAR.

Nah man it doesn't matter. As long as you know your content and study patterns well, you're fine. I knew a kid who cruised through junior school and BAM he randomly starts coming 1st in almost all his classes in senior school. Ended up getting 97
