Hey everybody. This post is about my ranks and subject choices :(
My expectations were really high but now my desired ATAR of 92 does not seem attainable.
I recently dropped PDHPE, though I was coming 2/17, I barely passed my major assessment which contributed 35% towards the HSC.

My school rank is like ~315-320
And I do the following Subjects with my ranks.

Mathematics (2U) - 7/9
Advanced English - 6/28
Economics - 1/14
Business Studies 3/27
Legal Studies - 2/13

Do you guys still reckon that 92 is reasonable?

You will definitely pick up your ranks in English and Maths to stand a chance. Aim to be in the top 20%.

Thank you so much for responding.
I get the pulling up my rank in English since I'm always being easy with it, but for Maths, my percentage was like 83% and the difference between most people are like 1% or 2 :S Does that matter in any way?

And with this ranks, would you be able to estimate my ATAR? :)

At the moment, maybe mid to high 80s.

If this is true and your cohort does well externally then I think you will be ok for maths. From those ranks, I think 92 is a reasonable goal with some improvement and a strong external performance.
