    Hopefully when you do take that dump it doesn't clog up the toilet to the point where you have to punch it down. :'(

    It was 10 bucks. Definitely worth it if you have 4 hours to spray it into someone's face like I'm now doing to one of my friends.

    Well... my ATAR was in the 50s :'), my grades werent even that bad as well. It's just the fact that I had a normal house and a normal family they decided to rip me into shreds. At the time I was really embarrassed about it, I cried after my dad called me to find out what I got. I felt like I let my family down after all the money they put me into school with. I couldn't get into any degree. But now it doesnt bother me lol. It's just a number.

    I know quite a few people that did alright at school and was shocked at how low their ATAR was.

    I've redeemed myself, I got a Diploma of Business now and I'm studying a Bachelor degree at Uni.

    See the important thing is you didn't give up. And to be honest, the hsc in general is very bad at assessing anything more than 1 type of intelligence

    For example, I know a girl who's a close friend but she knows literally nothing. She asked me how much a 3 pointer was worth in basket ball and if Burma was in Thailand, but she ended up with a 92 cos she's really good at memorizing and talking mad sh-- out her a--- in essays (I am too but this is another level). She's smart, but that's not the only type of intelligence that exists

    Reminds me of what @Chad Warden said about clerical work being a stronger point for females.

    And it's all about how hard you work. I admit I was lazy in year 12, could've done better.

    i completely agree with @threee, school only really encourages one or two types of intelligence
