Australian universities are under fire for admitting students with ATARs as low as 39 into teaching degrees, despite the national entry benchmark being 70.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
What we're talking about: This episode is all about explaining how VCE works and translating the jargon around VCE so that you can understand it more clearly and feel more confident supporting your child. Grab the free download The Parents' Guide to VCE to have on hand (https://www.roadmapeducation.com/parents-guide), and listen up as I clarify what the key organisations like VCAA and VTAC do, what all the acronyms mean, and tell you what you need to focus on and what you can ignore as white noise. 5:22 What does VCAA stand for and what do they do? The VCAA is the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority. They set the curriculum for schools in Victoria from early childhood through to VCE (including creating VCE study designs), organise the external exams at the end of Unit 3 and 4 subjects, and calculate a student's study scores for their subjects. 7:00 What is VTAC and what do they do? VTAC is the Victorian Tertiary Admissions Centre and they facilitate the transition between high school and tertiary education. They get students raw study scores from VCAA, use them to calculate students' ATARs, and manage the offer process for tertiary institutions. Keep an eye on their website for important dates for VTAC applications and offers, and also for all of the University and TAFE Open Days (links below) 8:15 What is VCE? VCE stands for Victorian Certificate of Education, and it is the secondary qualification for students in Victoria. It now includes the VCE - Vocational Major which has replaced VCAL and allows students to explore vocational studies as part of their secondary education. 9:50 What is a SAC? SAC stands for School Assessed Coursework. They are set out by the VCAA in the subject study designs which can be accessed on the VCAA website, and a student's ranking after all of the SACs are completed in a subject is used as part of the calculation of the study score for the subject. Not all assessment completed in Year 12 is a SAC. 11:49 What is a study score? A study score is the result that students get for each of the Unit 3&4 subjects they complete. It is a number out of 50 and it's a ranking showing where you sit compared to everyone else who completed that subject in the same year. VCAA calculates the raw study score for each student, and then study scores are scaled depending on how well each cohort of students has done well across all of their subjects to be used in the calculation of each student's ATAR. 14:38 What is an ATAR? ATAR stands for Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank and it is a ranking showing how well each student did in VCE compared to all other students who completed VCE in the same year. The highest ATAR a student can get is 99.95, which means that they're in the top 0.05% of the state. It only exists because it is the most efficient way for students to get an offer into (a lot of) university and TAFE courses. It is not the only way of getting into tertiary courses, and as a society we need to stop giving it so much power. 17:28 What is SEAS? SEAS stands for Special Entry Access Scheme and it is the way that students can get extra points added to their selection rank if they have had any type of disadvantage in VCE compared to their peers, such as financial difficulties, health issues and other difficult circumstances. The focus of a SEAS application is how the issue has affected the student's ability to perform at their best in VCE. A SEAS application will only ever be used to your child's advantage.

What we're talking about: Exams are just about over, and now you've shifted to looking at your VTAC preference list and wondering what ATAR you might get. Lots of students are asking about ATAR calculators and which one they should use. Let's have a look at how you can best work out your ATAR. 1:33 How hard is it to work out what ATAR you might get? Guessing your ATAR is really difficult because your ATAR is a ranking, based on your study scores, which are also rankings. See Episode 58 (linked below) to get a really clear understanding of how your ATAR would be calculated. There are a couple of ways you may be able to get an idea (eg if you have a sibling who went to the same school doing the same subjects and you perform very similarly academically, or your teachers might have an idea if they're very experienced) however I explain why even these guesses aren't super accurate. 10:00 What is an ATAR calculator? A quick google search will tell you that there are heaps of ATAR calculators to choose from, and nearly all of them will be advertised as the most accurate one. To use an ATAR calculator, you need to guess each of your study scores, and then it will use an algorithm to decide what ATAR it thinks you will get. The problem here is that it's really hard to guess your study scores, and then your ATAR is a ranking, not a straight calculation. While the algorithm might come close, without accurate study scores it's really not going to give you a good indication of what ATAR you might get. So which ATAR calculator should you use? None of them. 13:43 What should you do instead? Instead of trying to guess your ATAR, do some more research around courses so that you can include your dream course or courses, but then also find other courses that you'd be just as happy to do, or that can be used as a pathway into your dream course. Create a great VTAC preference list, and keep the extra information in your desk drawer in case you want to make some changes to your preference list in the change of preference period.

What we're talking about: 2:16 A note for parents about prerequisites If you finished high school a while ago, you need to know that the prerequisites for courses have changed dramatically since we were applying to university. We've seen an increase in mental health issues, anxiety and comparison for today's students, and this has led to less students choosing what some people call “harder” subjects. A lot of universities have jumped on board and changed their prerequisites to match what students are actually choosing. So my message to you is to look at what the prerequisites actually are instead of making assumptions about what subjects your child will need to do to be eligible for certain courses. 6:10 Should you do subjects like Specialist Maths? If you love the subject, want a challenge and want to explore the particular topics within a subject, then yes, absolutely! If you're only choosing it because you think you need it, and you are worried about how you're going to cope in VCE and how you'll balance the workload, then double check the prerequisites for the types of courses you're looking at and make an informed choice about whether you need to do it or not. 8:10 If I haven't studied subjects that used to be prerequisites, how will that impact me later on? When universities change the prerequisites for a course, they will adapt the course to suit the new prerequisites. For example, they'll take the content out of the VCE subject that traditionally they would have expected students to know, and they add it into the course. For a lot of students, this is a better way to do it because they no longer have the stress of VCE and ATARs over them as their learning more difficult topics. 10:40 Why do some universities still have the “harder” subjects as prerequisites? The more prestigious universities often have higher ATAR requirements and prerequisites for their courses, and this is because their courses are in high demand and they need a way to distinguish between the students applying for the course. It doesn't necessarily make the course better. Employers are much more interested in which applicants can show that they are capable of doing the work, so it's more important to find courses that allow students to do internships or placements and engage with the industry they'll be working in.

What we're talking about: As a student I always left studying for English to last, and as a result it was always my worst subject…until I was in Year 12. The fact is, it's really important to prioritise VCE English if you want to do well in VCE, and there are a couple of reasons why: Your result in English (or Literature, or English Language, or EAL) WILL be used in the calculation of your ATAR. If you're not sure how ATARs are calculated, I give you a brief recap in this episode, but check out Episode 58 (link below) to understand how it all works. A study score of at least 20 or 25 in English is a prerequisite for nearly all Bachelor degrees. Yes, there is always another way to get where you want to go, but the quickest route is to get the ATAR and prerequisite study scores necessary to be considered. If English is not your best subject, what should you do? I'm not an English teacher, but listen up if you want to hear what worked for me and what I've seen work for other students.

What we're talking about: This episode is for the students who are working really hard to do well in VCE. Put the brakes on for 20 minutes and listen up to get some perspective, consider how you're coping, and, if it feels right to you, make a healthier choice for you. 2:00 My school experience In this episode I start by giving you some more information about my own experience as a student in the context of how it led to my current career. I explain how my thoughts around VCE have changed from when I was a student, to when I became a tutor and teacher, and now that I'm a career counsellor. 7:15 Do you enjoy the challenge of school? Why are you working so hard? Is it because you really thrive on the challenge of learning? Or do you wake up feeling sick about the day ahead? Find out how conversations with some of my students helped me question how things are done in schools. 11:13 Why are most of us so focused on ATARs and results? The VCE system is all based on ranking students against each other, which inevitably leads to a lot of students being hyper focused on results rather than learning. What I want you to think about is how you could reframe things in a healthier way. You have more choice than you think. 16:08 How else could you approach this? So what could you do differently to take all this pressure off yourself and stop focusing so much on striving to do well? You could think about what you want to do next, recognise that you can actually do whatever you want, and that you can put a plan in place to get there no matter what results you get. You don't need a better ATAR. You need a better plan.

What we're talking about: TAFE and University Open Days are one of the best ways to really understand what your tertiary experience will be like…but they can also be a waste of time if you don't have a plan for the day. Listen up for 5 of my best tips for getting the most out of your next Open Day. 2:05 - Register for your Open Day Before you go to the Open Day, make sure you go to the TAFE or University website and register so that you get all the information about what's going to happen on the day, and also you'll be added to their mailing list so you'll find out about any other opportunities that are coming up to find out more about their courses. 3:43 - Do some research before you go Even though you will get lots of pamphlets on the day with heaps of course information, if you do some research before you go, you can have your questions ready so that you can come away from the Open Day with the extra information you need to make an informed decision. 5:48 - Plan your day Now you have all this information, you can plan your day so that you use your time efficiently. If you know what time the sessions you're interested in are running you can be there at the right time (especially if there are 2 Open Days for different institutions that you want to go to on the same day). You can also write down questions so you're ready to ask them at the right the time instead of trying to think of them on the spot. 7:30 - Soak up the atmosphere If you end up choosing to go to this TAFE or uni, you'll be spending a lot of time there, so you want to make sure it's a place where you feel comfortable and inspired to learn (or at least somewhere you want to turn up each day!) Open Days are a great opportunity to get a sense of what the TAFE or university is in general, and you can also find out what they offer outside of academic study that could interest you. 9:29 - You are in the driver's seat If you're feeling anxious about going to the Open Day and asking questions, remember that they're holding the Open Day to sell the experience to you and convince you to choose THEM. The people there want to speak to you and answer your questions. Forget about ATARs and everything that's happening at school and use this opportunity to get excited about your future.

What we're talking about: Today I'm sharing 3 questions that I hear a lot from VCE students (and parents), and I'm explaining what these questions tell me you're worrying about, and give you an alternative question that will better support you to get the most out of VCE. 1:27 - How many hours do I need to study each night? This question is really hard to answer, because it's different depending on who you are, how well you understand what's happening in class, whether or not you have an assessment task coming up, what resources you have access to, etc. Instead, I want you to ask “What do I need to do to get the most out of the time I spend studying?” This question changes your focus from ticking a box to actually giving yourself what you need to feel confident, learn the content and perform well at school. 5:15 What SAC marks do I need to get a study score or ATAR of…? A SAC mark isn't enough information by itself to let you know what study score or ATAR to expect. If you don't know how this works yet, please go and listen to Episode 58 to find out how ATARs are calculated (www.roadmapeducation.com/podcast/58). Instead, I want you to ask “what are the pathways that I can use to get into the course or career that I'm dreaming of no matter what results I get?” This question supports you by giving you a task to do that will be helpful when it comes to applying for courses, and also takes the pressure off each individual SAC and exam, because you already can see all the ways you can still get where you want to go. 8:42 What's the best uni for this course? The fact is, the best uni or TAFE for a particular course is the one that prioritises the things that you need. Instead, ask “what do I want to prioritise, and what uni prioritises that?” The best course for you is the one that allows you to get the most out of the course, whether that means that it's located close to where you live, whether they have a larger or smaller cohort, whether the university or TAFE has the support services that you need, etc. Please also forget about what your future employer might think. Firstly, in Australia we're very lucky to have fantastic courses and institutions, and in a lot of industries, courses need to be accredited so it's really easy to make sure that the course covers what everything that you'll need to start your career.. Also, more and more, employers want to hire graduates who can show that they have the relevant skills that are needed for the job through the answers they give in an interview, or the internships or work placements they've done.

What we're talking about: Today I want to talk to you about 3 really practical ways that you can support yourself in VCE that will help you feel in control and give you a better perspective when you're overwhelmed by homework, SACs and exams. 2:43 - Understand how VCE really works The better you understand how VCE works, the better prepared you are to do well, and the more likely you are to focus on the things that you can actually control and that will make a difference in how well you do in VCE. Make sure you know how your VCE subjects work and how study scores and ATARs are calculated so that you don't get distracted and stressed out by those parts of VCE that can feel really overwhelming. 4:57 - Keep track of important dates and processes If you are in VCE and want to study in Victoria when you finish, it's important for you to know when VTAC applications and SEAS applications open, when they're due and when payments are due so that you don't miss out because you didn't meet the deadlines. If you're submitting a SEAS application, also check the VTAC website early so that you understand what evidence you need to provide and have plenty of time to organise it. 9:23 - Learn about pathways that lead to courses that you're interested in It's great to have one or two courses that you're really interested in, but if that's where your research ends, you're putting a lot of pressure on yourself to get a particular ATAR or get offered a place in the course you want. The best way that I've found to remove a lot of that pressure, is to have a thorough understanding of what you need to do to get into the course, what alternative courses that you can look at if you don't meet the entry requirements, and create a plan around what you'll do in the change of preference period if you don't end up with the results you're hoping for so that you can still end up in the same course or career you're dreaming of.

What we're talking about: In this solo episode I'm answering the question “How are ATARs calculated?” because it's so relevant to all students from Year 10 through to the end of Year 12, and there's a lot of misinformation out there about how it all works, which causes significant stress and anxiety for students. By explaining how it really works, my aim is to empower you and remove some of that stress, helping you focus on what you can control and worry less about what you can't. 1:45 - Start with your SAC ranking Understand how your Unit 3&4 SAC results contribute to your study scores for each of your VCE subjects. Spoiler alert: your actual marks don't matter. It's your ranking compared to your classmates that's important in this step. 6:26 - How do they work out your SAC scores? Learn how VCAA uses the external exam results for your VCE subjects to calculate the SAC results they will use to work out your study score. This is how they fix the issue that students at different schools do different SACs. 11:29 - How are VCE study scores scaled? You've likely heard about scaling of VCE study scores because it seems to be something that students really focus on when they're choosing subjects. It's important to know that subjects are scaled based on how well the cohort of students in one subject do in all of their other subjects, and it's done to make a study score of 30 equivalent to a study score of 30 in any other subject. 13:45 - How are your study scores used to calculate your ATAR? Find out how your study scores are added together to calculate an aggregate score, and then how that number is converted to a ranking, comparing your results to everyone else who has completed VCE in the same year. 15:36 - Why is it important to understand how ATARs are calculated? Now you know how it works, you can focus on the things that will actually help you get a better an ATAR and let go of the things you can't control.

WELCOME TO THE FINAL EVER EPISODE OF YEAR 12 DIARIES! Today I am joined by a fellow Year 12, student Bridie as we both reflect in our Year 12 Journeys. While, Year 12 has been pretty grueling and challenging with the pressures of grinding for the study scores and ATARs we all desire, it has been a COVID free year. We celebrate our triumphs this year and list a few plans in a few months after exams before Uni kicks off. A topic of discussion is study methods, both Bridie and I study very differently, and that is alright. It is all about how you study, currently I have been using the FLORA app where you stay productive for a certain amount of time and plant trees as a result. On track for 20 hours this week.. We recap on our current studying weeks and rant about our spread out exam scheduless. VCE = VERY COMPLEX EMOTIONS, we bust some year 12 myths about what it is really like as a student! Some tips to manage stress and final day celebration days which were very TAME. Good luck to the CLASS OF 2022 in your remaining exams and best wishes for all those future graduates. xx --- Contact Email - jezzaa004@gmail.com Instagram - @jezzandfriends

2020 has been a challenging and disruptive year for everyone with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, but one group that is often thought about is students – particularly those completing Year 12 this year. To explore this issue more, Education Review spoke to Professor John Hattie from the University of Melbourne. Although he acknowledges that many Year 12s might be suffering socially this year as the final year of schooling is considered “a rite of passage”, Hattie sees many benefits associated with a remote or online model of learning. Firstly, he points out that thousands of students across Australia have studied online successfully for years. Hattie also adds that students learn to “self-regulate and own their learning” while learning remotely. The Visible Learning founder also refers to a recent study that found many Year 12s felt that could learn more efficiently in a remote learning context. Also, in light of many higher and vocational education courses being delivered online, Hattie sees the remote learning experience as “incredible preparation”. On the topics of ATARs and university entry, while Hattie says there is no need to drop ATAR, states and territories may look at other ways of calculating “what goes into it” and this may alleviate some of the anxiety and stress facing students. He also said that ATAR is often not the sole determiner for university entry; indeed, "for the last decade universities have used multiple indicators" to select applicants.
2020 has been a challenging and disruptive year for everyone with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, but one group that is often thought about is students – particularly those completing Year 12 this year. To explore this issue more, Campus Review spoke to Professor John Hattie from the University of Melbourne. Although he acknowledges that many Year 12s might be suffering socially this year as the final year of schooling is considered “a rite of passage”, Hattie sees many benefits associated with a remote or online model of learning. Firstly, he points out that thousands of students across Australia have studied online successfully for years. Hattie also adds that students learn to “self-regulate and own their learning” while learning remotely. The Visible Learning founder also refers to a recent study that found many Year 12s felt that could learn more efficiently in a remote learning context. Also, in light of many higher and vocational education courses being delivered online, Hattie sees the remote learning experience as “incredible preparation”. On the topics of ATARs and university entry, while Hattie says there is no need to drop ATAR, states and territories may look at other ways of calculating “what goes into it” and this may alleviate some of the anxiety and stress facing students.

This week John (@jfcatto) brings his sultry best to dispel this week's misrepresentation regarding ATAR entrance scores for teaching degrees. Something Birmo seems unable to do.
