    Can you still b6 if your rank isn't that good

    Assuming that your cohort's performance is similar to average past cohort performance, your rank likely means that you are on track with an Assessment Mark in the band 5 range. If that ends up being the case, an overall HSC mark in the band 6 range may be possible, provided that you achieve an...

    ideally what internal marks do you have to be getting for a 90-95+ Atar?

    Essentially, the marks that you achieve in your school-based assessment tasks/exams only serve to determine your ranks in your subjects. They have no significance beyond this and beyond helping you identify areas of improvement relevant to the content of each subject. As such, you need to...

    eng ext 1 advice + tips on how to take notes??

    Welcome to Bored of Studies! :bosman: I did not take English Extension 1, so hopefully someone else can provide advice about the subject itself. However, perhaps I could provide some insight into effective note-taking. It is important that you organise your notes well. You can do this through...

    Atar Prediction

    Your current performance seems consistent with an ATAR between 95.5 and 97.5. From your post, this is good news because it means that you are on track towards achieving and potentially exceeding your ATAR goal, and potentially the upper end of this estimate, given that you are ranked first in...

    internals

    There are two main factors that will determine whether a mark in the band E3 range in Mathematics Extension 2 will be possible. The first one is cohort strength. Being ranked last in a subject is not good. However, the extent to which this applies differs between higher-ranked schools and...

    What band's does it typically take to get a 93 atar?

    If you achieve overall HSC marks in these ranges across your subjects, you will likely exceed an ATAR of 93. More specifically, performance at this standard will likely lead to an ATAR of around 95. Generally speaking, achieving an ATAR in the low 90's would require a combination of band...

    Cooking or Cooked? (atar prediction)

    Given this information, your current performance seems consistent with an ATAR between 96 and 98. This means that a 97 ATAR is within reach and that your performance across your subjects is of a high standard, with some differences between each subject. Being ranked first in some of your...

    Internal Marks

    I believe so, since HSC results are reported in whole numbers, rounded up where applicable.

    ATAR Prediction

    From this information, you seem on track with an ATAR between 89.5 and 91. Overall, your current performance is consistent with the lower end of your desired ATAR range, and that is a good start. Chemistry and Mathematics Extension 1 are your best-performing subjects. This is because you are...

    is my atar screwed be honest

    From this information, your current performance seems consistent with an ATAR up to 79.5. This essentially means that an ATAR in the low 80s range is within reach and is a realistic goal. However, an 85+ ATAR is likely to be significantly more difficult to achieve, although it may still be...

    am I cooked

    Given your marks and your cohort's average marks, your ranks will likely drop, especially if you performed at a higher standard in your previous assessment tasks/exams. However, I agree with katiekms that your minimum ATAR goal should still be achievable. Your chances of achieving an ATAR of at...

    latin (extension) or physics

    Your decision should ideally not be fully based on the scaling of a subject. Instead, you should consider the subject that you can perform well in. This is because the better your performance is, the less you will be affected by scaling. On the other hand, unfavourable performance in a subject...

    latin (extension) or physics

    Assuming that there are no restrictions that may be placed by your school on the maximum number of units that you can have, it would be good to take both Latin Extension and Physics. This would essentially allow you to make a more informed decision regarding the subject that you should keep...
