Every year there is a debate about ATARs – and every year, I emphasise this: an ATAR does not define who you are or what you can achieve. Great discussion with @RichelleHunt, Meredith and @abcmelbourne listeners this morning on The Conversation Hour: https://t.co/fgChOA4XIV

As students across Victoria nervously await the release of their ATAR results next week, The Conversation Hour looks at what options are out there for students beyond a high ATAR.

About to go live on @abcmelbourne with @RichelleHunt and @victoriauninews student Meredith Hunt to talk about why someone’s ATAR does not, in itself, reflect their full potential. There is so much more beyond the ATAR. Listen here: https://t.co/j1woW8yyoU
