Hello, I'm a yr 12 student right now and is currently working towards my HSC. My mid-yearly marks were good with subjects just going over the top half of the cohort and some even way below... I would want an ATAR of 90~95 but i was wondering if i improve a lot in my Trials and HSC, that despite my mid-yearlies and other exams being terrible, i could still achieve this mark.. would it be possible??? right now im studying
Modern History
Maths EXT 1
Maths 2U
Heritage Korean
Advanced English
Biology
so 11units in total... and also, because im doing an uneven 11units, how does the top 10 units count to my ATAR??

well trials+hsc are probably at least 60-70% of your course assessment, so theoretically you still have heaps of opportunity to improve
whether you can get 90+ atar depends on how well you are doing (ranks) and in what context (school rank)

for the units, they split each 2 unit subject into 2 units
so e.g. what could count is

modern
mx1
2u maths
korean
english
1 unit of biology

and so 1 unit of biology wouldnt count
