2022 Dux, Guntaas Ranu

ATAR Excellence

Class of 2022 dux Guntaas Ranu (pictured left) was placed in the top 0.70% of students with an ATAR score of 99.3.

“When I received my results, I was surprised but also happy to have received a 99+ ATAR,” Guntaas said. “I had already received interview offers to courses like Medicine at some of the best universities in Australia and I felt a sense of pride in being placed in the top 0.70% of students..

“The most enjoyable part of my ATAR journey was the learning experience. Firstly, it taught me how to maintain a balanced routine, so that I can focus on my studies while still enjoying my extra-curricular activities. ATAR also helped me establish and refine skills, such as dedication, commitment and motivation. Ultimately, I found joy in challenging myself to understand concepts beyond the syllabus and, by extension, improved my capability to think beyond academically set boundaries.”

Guntaas said she chose subjects she liked, “so I genuinely enjoyed the content and studied them continuously”. Her commitment to Chemistry, Economics, ATAR English, Mathematics Methods, Physics and ATAR Religion and Life led to being accepted into the Assured Pathway to Doctor of Medicine (MD) at UWA.
