I reakon 90-93. Standard english has the potential to drag you down due to its poor aligning.

The problem with standard is that it aligns poorly (less than 5% of people get above 80 for standard, only 64 people out of 30,000+ standard students got 90+). My school was ranked around 300 and the top standard mark was 81, followed by 80 and 79. Your rankings in your other subjects are strong, so they could possibly compensate for standard and pull you above 95. However, I think that in all likelyhood those ranks would get you low 90's.
