Tayla French was the only student from the Milton-Ulladulla district to be included on the Top Achievers List and was ranked fifth in the state in Business Services with a mark of 95 out of 100.
Tayla is eagerly awaiting her Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR results), which will be announced on Thursday, before deciding on a career path.
She said she was very happy with her individual subject marks, but said her decision about which university path she would take hinged on her ATAR.
"I'm hoping to do a double degree in Commerce and Science at University of NSW," she said on Wednesday.
"It depends on my ATAR - I may just do commerce."
Tayla said she would like to work in a large company or corporation and may combine her love of business and science.
"Once I start uni and sort out what I like best, I will decide which direction I'll take."
The daughter of Rhonda Kennedy and granddaughter of well known Ulladulla identity Nita Kennedy, Tayla is currently working at Hales Douglass Financial Services and learning about working in an office and running a business.
Students from Nowra and Bega High Schools were included in the prestigious All-Rounders List announced at noon on Wednesday, while students from Nowra and Vincentia High joined Tayla on the Top Achievers list.
Ulladulla High was also included on the Distinguished Achievers List, which honours students who scored in the top band in one or more subjects.
More than 55,000 NSW HSC students will find out their ATAR on Thursday.
Students can view their ATARs from 9am Thursday on UAC’s website at www.uac.edu.au using their UAC application number or HSC student number and UAC PIN.
