Hi everyone! I'm Darren, and I'm a third year medical student studying at Monash University. Especially for parents or students in younger year levels, words like 'ATAR' and 'SACs' can seem a bit confusing. Hopefully this video clarifies those questions.

You will need more than a high ATAR score. Social skills are incredibly important. We do not need just high-scoring robots.
Don’t brainwash kids into thinking atar is not important, social skills are easily learnt, a low atar will set you back for life
Thanks for the video Darren! Year 8 going Year 9 migrating to Australia soon for my studies. Your video was really helpful for understanding the ATAR calculations. Thanks!
No worries Seris! Enjoy Australia
And is it to sneak into residency via education. I hope you have a vested interest in the country. If so you are welcome.
@@lz.70stracks56 i'm an australian who has been living overseas
Good video Darren!
Thanks Kevin!
Thank you Darren for this video. :)
No worries Dandelion
I got 95% in Math and 95% in chemistry and 93% in biology and 85% in physics and 94% in ICT and 66% in English,can gou please tell me my ATAR grade?can I get to Monash university?
Hey Mahima, I'd need more context for those results. And with getting into Monash University, it depends on the course.
Awesome video Daren. We recently moved to Australia and this gave a good overview of what is ATAR and how is it calculated. My son is in year 8...can you help answer these questions:
1. If a student goes to a non-selective school, but does good in studies...will his ATAR be still lower than students at Selective school?
2. In the example that you showed it had only Maths/English/Latin...what about other subjects such as Physics/Chemistry/Biology?
Hey! Glad the video’s helpful.
1. No
2. Other subjects work exactly the same
@@DarrenTan21 Thanks for your response
follow-up question - is ATAR dependent on school / it's ranking ?
@@svdfxdnot that much directly. But some schools will have more experienced teachers and a more academic environment which will help
@@DarrenTan21 Thanks
Does that mean I would get a higher atar with 6 subjects than 5 since additional 10% of that sixth subject is added to mys score?
Generally yes.
Unless studying a sixth subjects leads to doing worse in the other five.
Hey Darren I’m currently in yr 11 and I can speak for all students that are in yr 11. We are half way until yr 12 like that’s crazy!!!. Wot can we all yr 11s do to get ahead b4 we actually start yr 12
That's a very broad question. No. 1 task is to get your Yr 11 studies under control and try hit those results and build those habits that you want. That will prepare you well for next year.
Yes and can put down the quality of teachers who are excellent and work for the state system.
I met some atrocious teachers who worked at Private schools during my time so be careful how your parents spend their money. The teachers had resources, however, did not have the skills to use them effectively and they were lazy. ( personal experience - They did not offer extra tutorials after school or alter the communication of tasks, provide a suitable guide to assessment criteria guide, and then offer examples of what a high-ranking response was to achieve a high score for the assessment. That is the difference. Flexible teaching to mixed ability classrooms. Especially where English may not be the first language. Providing timely feedback to students is also important. It is hard for VCE teachers to complete all these tasks within a day /week/year.
Get a highly recommended experienced tutor as a support person in year 11 Maths/Science/English if required especially in Year 12.
I can answer that as a 30-year-plus veteran ex-teacher and parent of exclusively teaching VCE in Vic. Select the subjects that you need extra tuition for and get a good tutor for personal one-on-one teaching. Best wishes. @@DarrenTan21
swag video as usual daz B)
Thanks Yebin! Someone’s knocking on the door of 1K!
that english thing ruined my plan bro. i was gonna do 5 subjects so english which is my weakest only counts as 10% :( also any study tips for english because I cant really find a specific thing to work on
If you can’t find specific things to work on, try sending in just a plan, or just an intro, or a bp to your teacher. That way you can work on specific parts of the essay and your teacher can help you with your ideas or analysis or vocab etc.
Could you explain the point of doing a 6th subject? Does it take 10% from the 5th + 10% from the 6th or is it 10% from both 5th and 6th combined?
First option, 10% from each
hope you are doing well darren!
I'm doing good Spencer, on break at the moment. Hope you are going well too!
Are the study designs really broad? When I go onto them idk if I'm looking at the right ones but its not very specific to what we need to know so that I can study based around the
I’m not sure about every subject, but the study designs for say Methods have dotpoints under each area of study for each unit. One dotpoint is ‘the role of parameters in specifying general forms of functions and equations’. I think it’s a little broad but it gives a rough guide to which chapters in the textbook you would check out.
I used the study design more to check my learning at the end rather than to learn from - I think the schools and textbook are pretty good to follow with initially
Hi Darren, when studying what would you listen to? Music, ambient noise, silence etc.
Hey Coleman, I usually don’t listen to music when studying unless I’m really bored and then I’ll just play whatever music I like at the time (mostly pop)
Hi
Iam an immigrate and have undergraduat diploma equal to aqv lev 5
So my atar will be in my dibloma or my 12 year degree please answer?
In my 12th standard , i scored 54 in English, accounts ( 78 ) , statistics ( 75 ) , business administration ( 84 ) , economics ( 77 ) so what do you think will be my ATAT score ?? I want to get into University of Canberra, so I'm kind of worried for my admission so could you please tell me my score????
Hi Manav, I’m from Victoria which has a different scoring system. Try asking a teacher or past student
Hi Darren just a question is specialist maths required for medicine
Hey Minh, if you’re talking about Monash medicine then no. The pre-requisites are a 30 in English (35 in EAL) and a 30 in Chemistry
Thanks Darren I got a short attention span
Thanks(?)
Hello, do you know how to calculate scaled score?
Hey, there are reports out each year with the scaling. I’ve attached the 2022 one below
germanforthefuture.vic.edu.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/scaling-report-22-23.pdf
What happens if english isnt in your top 4?
It will always be your top 4, regardless of what score you get
@@siennali2504 oh ok, thank you
