The results will also begin arriving by mail from Tuesday.

This year marks the first time students will receive an Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR), formerly known as the Equivalent National Tertiary Entrance Rank (ENTER).

In bayside Melbourne, McKinnon Secondary College student Rachel Cole was ecstatic to receive a score of 99.90 sent to her mobile phone.

'I didn't really sleep last night, I was a little bit nervous,' she told AAP.

Rachel, who studied Chemistry, Psychology, Further Mathematics, Biology, Physical Education and English said the score came as a 'massive shock'.

'To get over 90 was like a dream but I would never have expected this,' she told AAP.

The avid singer and hockey player says she hopes to get a place in a physiotherapy course at Monash University and study medicine as a postgraduate after narrowly missing out on an interview for a medical place.

Rochester Secondary College principal Bernie Altmann said the 54 Year 12 students who completed their VCE in the college had generally performed as expected.

'It's been a strong year, most kids are happy with how they've gone, there's a few who didn't do quite as well,' he told AAP.

'There's still a lot of avenues open to them.'

There's the traditional treadmill and exercise bikes which can be used indoors. Resistance bands and free-weights are also good ones for indoo...

Kinect Review

Kinect Review - First presented to the world as Project Natal at E3 2009, Microsoft's Kinect sensor peripheral has since been positioned by the software (and hardware) giant as the next phase of Xbox 360's evolution as a platform. A combination of hardware and software, it's been billed as a means for users to interact with their consoles and play games without using a physical controller, using natural gestures, voice commands and face recognition. I've had a final retail Kinect unit at home for a little over a week now, and have had ample time to put the shiny new gadget through its paces. Is it as magical as expected? Will it transform gaming? Or, more importantly, does it even work? Read on past the break for my in-depth review of this ambitious apparatus. Kinect is a single piece of hardware, yet it incorporates several distinct technologies. There's an infrared emitter that floods your play space with invisible light, paired with a CMOS sensor that then l...
