2009 Australian Year 12 Conversion Table
The following table is published as a guide for intending interstate applicants. Shown in the first two columns of the table are the 2009 methods of reporting student achievements based on 2009 data.
The last column shows the approximate points of comparison of QTAC selection ranks with Year 12 results. These are intended as an approximation only.
For admission to tertiary courses in 2010, all States/Territories of Australia produced overall measures of their students' 2009 achievements in a common index that allowed for comparisons to be made across States/Territories and across time. In NSW/ACT, this index is called the ATAR; in Victoria, the ENTER; in WA, the TER (ATAR); and in SA/NT and Tasmania, the TER. This means that an ATAR of 81.55 equals an ENTER of 81.55 equals a TER (ATAR) of 81.55 equals a TER of 81.55.
Queensland provides, to the appropriate authorities, individual ranks calculated according to the Interstate Transfer Index for Queensland students formally applying for tertiary admission interstate. However, within the State, students' achievements are reported as Overall Positions, with Field Positions and other criteria used, if necessary, for finer rankings.
