If I'm ranked 2/22 in Eng.Std... and 5/11 Economics... And my cohort's performance isn't really good.
But if i attained an aligned mark of both 85% for these two subjects and my cohort doesn't go really well(say around 65-75%)... would i get dragged down a lot??

Would i still attain a mark of 80%+ ??

It's not really wanting to predict my mark... I just want to know if I'll get affected, and how bad would it be.

Not simple as that... How bad would the effect be?
It will depend on the highest and lowest marks of those respective exams, and your rank relative to first and last.
I can't really say how bad it is because I don't know your cohort, how far are you from 1st in both subjects?

Are there any douche bags that don't give a shit in your cohort? They'll determine how much you get affected.

Even if you are ranked above them, they still effect you. The lowest mark will become the lowest assessment mark, and all the assessment gaps will be stretched to fit the range of the exam marks. If it's by 1% it won't make much of a difference, 5% could pull you down a bit.
