[lilcutetricker]

School Rank: 130s

English advanced: 30/51 - overall strong cohort
Maths (2U): 52/132 - 2 mark difference between 25th and 10th - bottom 30 or so are quite weak.
Maths (3U): 58/72 - 4 marks between 50th and 34th - bottom 10 are quite weak
Economics: 9/15 - strong cohort overall (top 5 has 1-4 marks difference between them)
Physics: 14/51 (top 10 is considerably strong) - top 5 has band 6 potential
Chemistry: 19/54 - top 7 is strong - bottom 10-15 are weak.

87, how do you know the cohort is strong?

These things are obvious, say you get 80% and come first in the cohort, you could describe the cohort as weak, whereas if you get 80% and come last you can say the cohort is strong

You can't entirely say that because what if the exams were more difficult than the HSC standards and the first was indeed 80%. Would this mean the cohort is weak? Ofc not.

I'd be concerned if internally the last ranked person was on 80% in physics imo

Our school is known for a strong maths cohort with about ~30 or so people getting band 6 every year and ~40 getting band 6 in 2u.
Our english ranks differ by decimals and we as a cohort are pretty tight, so getting maybe 4-5 marks gets about 8 ranks difference. We fail in terms of not being able to perform well overall in english standard (however, unless you consider 1 state ranking for standard last year but that was an outlier i guess)
Economics, our highest is about 97 whilst our lowest is about 78%, bottom 3 are slightly weak but they work pretty hard.
1st in Chemistry, Physics and English (he did 3u and 2u last year and he attained state ranking easily) is brilliant. So i'm hoping 1st will carrying me to that 90+. Additionally, the next 10 or so ranks differ maybe by 7-8 marks (but there is a big gap from 1st since he aced everything)

Do you think i can attain a 95 if i pushed my maths up to about ~30, my economics to about 7th, my chemistry rank up to about 9th and physics up to about 11th?
