So guys, anyone here done VCE/(insert other state here) this year? Our results for VCE come out today, I got a 47.55 ENTER haha, which is shithouse but it shows you can do nothing all year in year 12 and fly by the seat of your pants and get a year 12 pass.
I'm happy I got a pass, anyone else here happy with their results? |

Nah you can pass with any VCE enter I'm pretty sure, as long as you pass all your subjects.
A mate got 27 a few years back and thats a pass too. |

Your ENTER score is the most overrated thing in the world.
Yes, it is crucial if you want to go into medicine or any medical field, but outside of that, if you have a goal and want to reach it enough, you can get there. I finished in 2002 and my score was a bit below 80 (which for me, was crappo), but I've still done bugger all (almost finished a teaching degree, and also have a Diploma in Biz/Admin). A fellow student of mine got about 65, did a TAFE course, then went to Uni, now is doing a Masters of Business. So if you didn't get what you want, in almost all circumstances, there are ways to still reach your goal, just not as directly. If anything, you'll be better off having both TAFE and Uni under your belt. You'll have the theory AND the practice.

I don't think they have the nasty words "pass" or "fail" anymore? just a ranking score?
Apparently its too damaging for their self esteem and stressful for the petals to cope with...

I finished VCE in 1998 with a score of 27.
I went on to TAFE to do computer systems, decided I hated computer users, then got a job. After being in the job for a couple of months I decided to go back to school to do something else. I applied to a few schools and was accepted by RMIT TAFE in to their mechanical engineering course as a mature age student (21) in 2002. I finished my degree at RMIT University in 2007 with first class honours. ENTER scores are a stupid idea. I didnt have an aim in VCE so I didnt give a rats. |

I thought I was going to be a chippy when I left school so I made sure my woodwork marks were excellent and stuff the rest, then I didn't get an apprenticeship and I was up the river. However, nobody cares about your enter score outside of medicine, law etc. I ended up with a job I love but had no idea even existed when I finished school.

I got 48 ish in 2005, I wasn't pleased, but i did waste pretty much year 12 between cars girls and drinking so I was not that surprised. I got accepted into RMIT Tafe for Aerospace Engineering due to the subjects I did. It was pretty crap, so left there and got a trade.
Now I'm a qualified Fitter and Turner and couldn't be happier, Schools place way to much stress on a VCE scores.

Yeah I wasted my year 12 as well, what was interesting though was I did nothing and my cousin was the opposite, studying hard for everything and he only got 10 more points than I did.
What was funny with me is that I put so much effort into everything from year 7 to 11, where nothing really mattered and then in 12, I changed my mind on going into IT industry so didn't bother with school anymore. |
