Simple ATAR estimate. please. (1 Viewer)

[Tom Fuller]

Just wondering what my ATAR may be.
The ranks are including everything, minus the actual HSC of course :S

English Advanced: 20/81
English Extenstion 1: 6/11
English Extension 2: 2/5
Biology: 12/25
Chemistry: 13/15
Ancient History: 1/15

School is ranked 381st in NSW.

Chem is totally going to rape you lol.

70s.

 

[ehtefaz.hedayet]

85 - 90

Edit: didn't look at the ranks carefully.

85 - 90

please dont overestimate.

around 70.

 

[Tom Fuller]

where in the 70's?
and trust me my chemistry is a whole lot better than my maths......which i came last in

 

[ehtefaz.hedayet]

please dont overestimate.

around 70.

sorry i didn't really look at the ranks to well.

i'll agree with others around 70.

Your school rank is worrying.

If your cohort's ability is reflective of it's rank as a whole, then you might get screwed over.

Mid 70s.

It's hard to predict because there's so many variables that could affect your ATAR.

hmmmmmm
well what about EAS? i applied and got accepted for it so how much further do you think i could go in terms of ATAR?

and i can probabably improve my chemistry ranking, aiming for 80% in HSC exam, would those two things improve the ATAR much?

 

[Aerath]

EAS doesn't change your ATAR. It just lowers the ATAR cutoff for Universities.

Obviously, yes! Remember the HSC is 50% internal and 50% external. Go well enough in your external exams and there is no reason why you can't get into the 80's or 90's.

well i know what EAS does obviously
but regardless it still does help in terms of ATAR, up to 10 points i hear!
what i'm really asking is whether or not it will enable me to reach, say 79?

 

[adomad]

73.25 ish

Well, if you think EAS raises your ATAR, you obviously don't know too much about it. EAS doesn't raise your ATAR.

omg i know, i just said it helps lower the cut off. so if i get 70.00 ATAR and the course i want is 80.00, with EAS i may get an offer cause the cut-off is lowered by 10 points possibly (depending on the level of disadvantage). correct?

sorry i didn't really look at the ranks to well.

i'll agree with others around 70.

What did u look at for you initial estimate?????????

i misinterpreted the cohort.

Bullshit. You didn't say it helps lower the cut off. You said and I quote, 'it still does help in terms of ATAR'.

But yeah, in this post: 'omg i know, i just said it helps lower the cut off. so if i get 70.00 ATAR and the course i want is 80.00, with EAS i may get an offer cause the cut-off is lowered by 10 points possibly (depending on the level of disadvantage). correct?' - you are correct.

hahah, calm down! jeez louise it was just specifics....
but yeah that's what i thought it was
