Couldn't really say with such small classes. Hopefully you have some genius' in your class otherwise if you have too many duds in such small classes you could get affected pretty badly :bomb: Essentially you're both first and last in EXTI and EXII and last in chem and average in your other subjects. What's your school's ranking?

I used a UAI calculator based on 2008 results.. and calculated 65.25. As it is a UAI calculator is i not entirely accurate, but yeah you get the gist.

This is not taking into consideration your ranks and is mainly due to you Chemistry and Bio. If you work hard on them, your ATAR could increase considerably, taking into account your school rank and performance in comparison to your cohort. :)

Don't bother using the SAM calculator for these. I doubt your teachers are statisticians or mathematical genius's so your mark is a meaningless number if you enter it into SAM

@Sir Study alot
Sadly your subjects scale very poorly, your standard english and gen maths will drag you down alot, however your bus and p.e rank might help a bit. I'm estimating 75ish.

But ultimately it depends how good your classes are compared with the rest of us.

can someone do mine pleaseeee (A)

school ranks about 132, but only because our ratios are much higher ( we have about 400 sit the hsc every year ) and last year we had about half that get 90+

Anyways, my marks

ancient - 3/69 [91%]
society -3/49 [96%]
legal - 9/54 [86%]
religion - 2/40 [91%]
english - 30 something/150ish [84%]

think i might screw up trials, hopefully not though.

thanks in advance :)

[ oh and since people are asking about performance in school and stuff. i know my subjects arent the best scalers, but we always get state ranks in society like every year so despite the poor scaling we go very well in that, and same with legal. not sure about religion & history though. Oh and we get scaled poorly in English I've heard. ]
