The HSC rankings are out, and there are some surprises in store. North Sydney Boys High School has taken out the top spot for the second year in a row, with James Ruse Agricultural High School coming in second and Sydney Grammar School jumping from seventh to third.
The HSC rankings are a useful tool for students who are considering their options for further study. They can help students to identify the schools that are best suited to their needs and aspirations.
However, it's important to remember that the rankings are just one factor to consider when choosing a school. Students should also consider the school's culture, facilities, and location.
The HSC rankings will be used to determine the ATARs (Australian Tertiary Admission Ranks) of students. The ATAR is a score that is used to compare students' academic achievements and to determine their eligibility for university courses.
The ATARs will be released on 19 December 2024. Students can access their ATARs online or through their school.
