13 units, did well in exams, what do you think? (1 Viewer)

[Azi]

Here's my exam results:

English 2U - 90%, 2nd?
English ext 1 - 92%, =1st
Maths 2U - 60%, =2nd
Legal Studies - 84%, 1st
Biology - 87% - 1st
Ancient History - 84%, =3rd
History ext - 84%, 2nd

Pretty good, I think, plus I do english extension 2, which gives me 13 units.

Is it a good idea to keep doing 13 units?
What kind of ATAR am I looking at, roughly? Could I get an ATAR of at least 90 (for Law)?

If you ace your HSC exams externally, then you're set for Law .

school rank?

I don't know my school rank. I can't imagine it would be that good, being a fairly average rural high school. How do you find out school rankings?

With those ranks a 90+ is extremely possible even with a not-so-good school rank. Try to keep your position stable or better it in trials and then gun it for the externals. It's pretty much up to you here. Have a close look at Maths, though, because 60% seems too low for 2nd place unless you go to a school with a killer Maths department. Do some past papers and see how you'd do in a standardised exam.
