We've still got trials and a few assessments in some subjects still to go for every subject. I have improved in English (I used to average around 65% - 70%) but I have hit a point where I can't really do much better. In CAFS I think I can improve, I came first last year, I don't know what went wrong this year. So if I keep up these ranks, what ATAR might I currently be looking at?

Thanks

I think 90 is achievable for you, English needs to be boosted up significantly. As long as you get 2-3 B6s, 90 is definitely a possibility :)

Keep up those ranks, and 90+ for sure.

Thanks guys, you both seem pretty sure about me being able to achieve 90 though, I thought 90 was a bit of a stretch? Like especially due to my CAFS and English ranks, and even anything I'm not 1st in. Won't my marks be dragged down considerably by my cohort?

around 90

40% average for business ---- solid business studies cohort/10

I advise you undertake snake studies, such that you learn how to snake to first rank so you're not affected by the cohort.
