but that all depends on the subjects and other things

For both 90 and 95, 0 band 6's will still get you there as long as all/most of your subjects are high 80s and have decent scaling.

EDIT: In your case, I agree with photo for 95+ 3 would be suffice as long as your other units are in the high 80s.

That is assuming that you do all the high scaling subjects i.e. mx1, mx2, Eng Adv, Chem, Phys/eco.

3 would be guaranteed provided the others are mid-high 80s. I think 0 is still possible if everything is like 88-89. But to be safe at least 2 b6 and the rest high 80s (87+)

Around what rank is your current school? Where does it fluctuate?

its around 400..but around 20 ppl get over 90 atar
Judging by the school rank, I would recommend top 10 (leeway a couple ranks) in every subject to have a chance of obtaining a 95+.

I got 91 atar with 3 band 6s but subjects were not that great (business, agriculture, cafs). The rest were band 5 (adv english, bio, society). Maybe that can help give you an idea.
