ATAR Estimate Thanks =) (1 Viewer)

[Jacqui-Lai]

Hi everyone,

Im not really sure how the ATAR thing works having left school like 3 year ago...so Ive like kinda forgotten how it works.

1. One of my students i used to tutor emailed me for an ATAR estimate.
2. She is also wondering whether ranks in school assessments are more important than marks...?

She attends a school of rank between: 100-115
Last year 15 people got above 90 in her school

Subjects (w.r.t. ranks)
Mathematics Ext II: 4/4
Mathematics Ext I: 5/10
English Advanced: 35/85
Chemistry: 28/32
Physics: 21/21
Studies of Religion I: 25/105


Thanks

I'm thinking low 80s.

30+

30+

LOL thats a bit harsh... But realistically what is a possible ATAR can she achieve =S

Would that be the highest you think she would be able to go?? Like 90s is out of her league?? o.o

Never change, never will

Sorry, but I'm drooling over your Phy mark haha. Your student's ranks aren't impressive, but I think low 80s if lucky.

 

[Beaconite]

30+ for sure!!! I can guarantee

Its hard to say to be honest, because it will largely hinge on how well she does in MX1 and MX2 (the ranks dont really help there). I reckon low-mid 80's but this is really a stab in the dark.

So does that mean, no 90 for her?

Its very hard to say, I am not very confident with my estimate (I'm never very confident on any estimate, but this one in particular), but its possible. Remember, an estimate is just that, an estimate (whether given by us or your school). We can only give a person a general idea of what they might get.

hmm true. I guess I'll tell her that to boost her confidence =) Thanks

^Yeaa, probably no 90 :/.

I know they aren't yours, I was referring to your physics mark in your sig. "Physics (97- 8th State rank) - amazinggggggg!

oooohhhh my bad >.< thanks =)

Also, with 50% of the HSC to go, things can change quite a bit. That and she has one extra unit are all working in her favour.

Don't wanna sound slack but yeah 90s will be quite hard for her IMO, but mid 80s definitely achievable
