The Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR) is an important indicator of academic success and also a key determinant for getting into university. Many students wonder whether they can get a zero score on their ATAR. The answer is that it is highly unlikely, as the lowest possible score you can achieve on your ATAR is 30.0. This means that even if you do not perform well in your final exams or make any other mistakes, you will still be able to receive some points towards your ATAR total. However, this does not mean that everyone who gets below 30 will get accepted by universities - most universities have higher cut-off scores which are required for entry into certain courses and programs, so it's important to keep this in mind when considering what course would suit you best. Additionally, there may be special circumstances where a student could qualify for admission with lower than normal entrance requirements - such as previous educational qualifications or relevant work experience – but these cases are usually very rare and require specific assessment from the admissions team at each individual higher education institution before being approved.
