Think I'm gonna need some sort of a support group this time next week.

Does anyone have any idea what time the results were out last year?

I know its a ridiculously long mammoth of a thread but.. i've answered this question many times already here!

I'll keep an eye on the results page from last year and see if they actually put the results system up and running a bit before they send out the emails. might catch them out the same way cao got caught out last year! No luck so far though.

Someone who did it last year told me that they were released at 00.50 on the day they were supposed to be out last year. So I suppose they will will come out at more or less the same time on the 30th Late night me thinks anyway

yes, ACER is an Australian company, so while to us it seems weird to be putting up the results at such a time, to them its late morning!

I would expect wee small hours again this year..

ACER defies the idea of percentiles! They should simply name their percentages ACERentiles and call it a day.

over 99th percentile they could at least go into decimals instead of rounding off to 100th percentile!!

I think they do. For example, you actually get a percentile of 99.345 but 100 shows up. ACER round it off.

bah, you're only mediocre! I''m totally gonna get 99.376 this year.

note: digits may be in reverse order

Everyone prepared for another 10-15 point rise ? Could see 275 this year.

hollingr

I'm gonna be stocking up on ice cream because I have a feeling there won't be a happy ending after the results. At the very least I'll end up crying into a tub of Ben&Jerry's.

A HPAT night would be messy as.. So much drowning of sorrows.

Ha clearly, but it wouldn't be a bad shout. Although an ice cream night does sound well also!

The results won't released until the 30th of April.

Did anyone else come nowhere near completing Section 1? My neighbours were playing music till 6 in the morning, so I went into the exam on two hours' sleep. To my horror I found myself daydreaming in Section 1. Daydreaming! During the hpat! Had to guess the last eight or so questions in that section.

spasmaster

because they didnt know the date changed
