Well, after the last round of assessments my ranks have somewhat changed. I just hope I can still get an ATAR of 99.00+. School is ranked 33rd.

English - 27/119 [dropped from 12]

MX1 ~ 10/102 [dropped from 3]

MX2 - 4/51 [improved from 5]

Chemistry - 1/65 [improved from 2]

Economics - 13/76 [improved from 15]

Legal Studies - 2/19 [improved from 3]

Is my ATAR aim out of reach? Thanks for your time guys. P.S. Needless to say the ranks I have dropped I endeavour to regain and perhaps surpass xD

Well, last year we had 35 band 6s. I'll be honest, I'm really really bad at english, i'll write an essay which will be great but won't be able to adapt it during the exam. If i'm lucky i'll be able to improve (we do have a speech component which in the past I have done better at) but that's not set in stone.

because you don't have an abnormally airbrushed asian girl with sparkles and shit around her in your dp/signature

plus, a detailed lurk reveals language subtleties in your post history that indicate you are of a jewish ukrainian background.

School 33rd :eek: syd tech, say hi to Lawrence and Jason for me haha. Below are the marks i put in sam.

English - 91 (35 band 6's is crazy!)
MX1 - 95
MX2 - 93
Chemistry - 96
Economics - 90
Legal Studies - 94

That gives like 99.45. If you take a point of about 3 of them, it goes down to 99.00 or somewhere in between. I've seen your maths posts here btw, so I'd definitely say 95 is probably less than what you will get. I think as long as you keep your current ranks, you should be on track for 99+.

i think MX2 is a bit low, the UAC table shows that in the 90th percentile u get a 96, and hes in the top 10% in a high rank school

not too sure but english looks a bit high though


Gurmies, 33rd is sydney tech right?
do u know someone called derryn chiu?

Thanks for the replies guys :) I know Lawrence and Jason and Derryn :D Which lawrence and which jason btw?

One thing - Chemistry 96 (impossible) but i'm aiming for 98+ in both 3 and 4 unit maths. Not sure if that's too ambitious or what, but my maths is better than my chemistry really, my ranks just don't reflect that.
