Ext1 Math: 1/10

Studies of Religion 1: ~15/60 - Not too sure about this.

If you want to be the hundredth person to tell me how badly standard is going to pull me down, feel free.

I reakon 95+. Your ATAR will mostly be determine by your performance on the externals, as your coming first in 7 units. You already know what I'm going to say about standard, so I will spare you.

Dude you're coming first in 4/6 subjects so definitely 95+

p.s Even though Standard aligns poorly you're coming first in it and that should hopefully help you a lot.

Thanks guys/girls. I'd be content with ~95.

Any chance of 98+?

Potentially, you could get as high as 99 with those ranks or as low as 95, as your coming first in most of your subjects. I think standard may prevent you from reaching 98 unless you manage to get 87+ in it (maybe ~2% of the standard cohort get above 87).

The thing that's preventing this guy getting 98 is SOR.

94+, depends on externals.

Well, it's only one unit and I'm fairly sure I can get a band 6 for it. It's not going to pull me down that much is it?

Band 6 when ranked 15/60? I don't think so.

Your ATAR is going to take into account all your 10 units. Stuff up in one, and you stuff up any hopes of a greatly superior ATAR. You partially 'stuffed up', so really it's dragging you down not just because of your rank, but because it also doesn't scale all that flash as well.

I'm not exactly sure about the rank, it could possibly be better but I'm not counting on it. My cohort for SOR has some pretty decent students this year + I've talked to my teacher who said that a band 6 is still a possibility (assuming I study enough before the HSC).

Because of all the first ranks you have, you can do pretty much whatever you like with them at this stage - it's all up to you to pwn the externals. I suggest you not worry about this and just concentrate on doing well =)
