Well, this throws a spanner in the works.

I hope that the yet-to-be-published 'Search By Course' page provides data similar to that of previous years, otherwise it seems unlikely that I'll be able to update the Study Score Archive immediately.

Yeah, and it better have school names next to the peoples names as well.

This is shit at the moment.

Guys, if you want to see "search by course" you need to remove "_VCE" from the URL and it will come up :D :D  I was like that VCE doesn't look necessary... Maybe I should remove it and see if that fixes the problem. Strangely it did! WTF... haha

Or Just type this

Nice find.

So, I guess they aren't publishing school names this year.

I will think about whether it is worth updating the Study Score Archive this year. It seems to me that there isn't much more that I can do with the data provided than what the Herald Sun's new interface is already exposing. Without school names, assigning rankings to students will be even less meaningful than before, since there are many people who share the same name.

Incidentally, here are the CSV files that they're using:

http://media.heraldsun.com.au/dbs/vce/csv/top.csv

Definitely no school names.

Why wouldn't they publish them? This really sucks. I want to see data from my school specifically. :(

Wow, good find. Can you make a preliminary study score archive that is at least not a huge pain to search? :)

The Age does this as well. I don't know whether they use the same data has the Herald Sun, in which case they won't have any school names either. It may be the fact that VCAA has chosen not to make available school names to the press. Or, in fact, it could be the Herald Sun's omission. It's largely speculative at the moment.

I've got a copy of the actual paper, it has school names. The inability to use ctrl+f makes it kind of irrelevant though :p

Thanks so much for you email.

I so feel like a stalker now, was hoping to get 40+ in psych too bad. I think I know who stonecold is now 
Stonecold was probably the easiest person to find. So many scores to cross reference hahaha.
He is the one that showed me this VN website. Feel bad finding out his identity.


I did?  Do you go to my school or something?  :P
Yep CAE right?

Yeah.  Umm, Dan from chemistry?

WAIT! if everybody knows stonecold's identity, he will cease to be the symbol this world needs. anarchy will rise and the corruption will poison any purity that remains 0_o
a little too dramatic?

Why did they decide to change it this year?

Who knows, especially when the data is present in the hard copy of the paper. Let's hope this is remedied for next year.

Current status for this year's release.

Yeah, I wasn't left with much choice of subjects after blockings, and I figure that potentially having a 5.0 can't hurt, even if it doesn't count for much. I'm hoping top 4 will be English, Methods, Spesh and Bio ... :)

ah thanks.  overall I would recommend it.  it is a shame you weren't allowed.  other than a few teaching staff who are just mean and not fit to teach (the subject teachers I am talking about I have mentioned numerous times on this forum if you look just a bit lol), the rest is all very good.  location is to die for, and days off galore.

It was kinda boring, and if you made disruptions to the class you'd cop heaps of greasies.

But if you want to learn, then I'd say go for it.

normal school i would get in trouble for wearing my uniform slightly off, or being chased around outside of class, not allowed to leave until end of the day, having to arrive early regardless to attend tutes, also go to assemblies, etc. etc.
my subject at RMIT (which is the same adult environment as CAE), was only classtime and nothing else, and its your fault if you fail things - not up to teachers running about for you.
loved it so much more.
