Grammar’s HSC results in 2024

Updated December 2024

In NESA’s published Higher School Certificate merit lists for 2024, Grammar boys were prominent. Sixty-four boys were listed as All Rounders for achieving top band results in at least 10 units. There were eight First in Course placements achieved by a group of seven boys, including one who was first in both Chinese Extension and French Extension. Other first place results were in Ancient History, Classical Greek Extension, Economics, German Continuers, Latin Continuers, and Latin Extension. There were a school record fifty-two Grammar placements in the Top Achievers list, and this total placed Grammar first among all schools for Top Achievers. In total, boys from the School were featured 163 times in the Distinguished Achievers list.

The School was ranked third for overall success rate according to The Sydney Morning Herald league table and was the highest placed independent school.

The School’s table of ATAR outcomes over time has now been updated with figures for 2024. This table is based on several sources of data provided to the School by the NSW Education Standards Authority and the scaling statistics made available each year by the Universities Admissions Centre and the NSW Education Standards Authority.
