ATAR Calculator – Predict Your University Entry Rank

An ATAR Calculator is an online tool that estimates your Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR) based on your predicted study scores. It helps students understand where they might rank for university entry before official results are released.

ATAR Calculators provide a close estimate, but they are not 100% accurate. Each year, scaling and cohort performance can change. Use them as a guide for planning, but rely on official admission centres (VTAC, UAC, QTAC, SATAC, TISC) for your final ATAR.

The most accurate calculators are those using up-to-date scaling data, such as Deakin’s ATAR Calculator, Monash’s ATAR Calculator, and UAC’s ATAR Compass. However, no calculator can guarantee your final ATAR since scaling varies yearly.

HSC ATAR Calculator – for New South Wales
QCE ATAR Calculator – for Queensland
SACE ATAR Calculator – for South Australia
WACE ATAR Calculator – for Western Australia

Each version factors in subject scaling rules specific to that state’s system.

To use an ATAR Calculator, select your subjects, enter your predicted or raw scores, and let the tool apply scaling data to estimate your ATAR. Some calculators allow you to “add subjects” to test different combinations.

An ATAR Scaling Calculator shows how your raw subject scores are adjusted (scaled) to reflect the difficulty of the subject. Scaling ensures fairness between subjects of varying difficulty.

Yes, some calculators provide GPA-to-ATAR or ATAR-to-GPA conversions. However, these are approximate since GPA and ATAR are different systems: ATAR ranks you against other students, while GPA measures your grade average at university.

Deakin’s ATAR Calculator is considered reliable, but like all calculators, it’s only an estimate. Students should use it to plan preferences and set study goals rather than expect an exact ATAR.

Any up-to-date ATAR Calculator that reflects current scaling trends (such as Deakin, UAC Compass, or Monash) will give you a good prediction. Our 2025 ATAR Calculator uses the latest scaling data to provide accurate guidance for university planning.

ATAR is used to fairly rank students from different schools and states for university entry. It simplifies selection by providing one score that reflects your position among peers nationally.
