    ATAR ESTIMATION? (I just want to see what I can achieve)

    Given this information, you seem to be on track with an ATAR in the high 80's to low 90's range. More specifically, that would be an ATAR between 88.5 and 90.5. This is similar to whattimeisit's estimate above. However, the fact that you are ranked first in most of your subjects is very...

    Speculative ATAR estimate

    Your school rank and your performance likely indicate that your school sets rather difficult tasks, especially Mathematics Standard and English Standard, which are your better-performing subjects. At the same time, your ranks in the rest of your subjects indicate that there is possibly greater...

    Speculative ATAR estimate

    ihatehsc24, would you be able to provide your school rank? This would provide a better idea of your cohort strength and as such would enable to pinpoint your current position more accurately. :) Demons, I will get to your post as well when I get the chance. :)

    Atar and moderated marks

    Thank you. Given this information, you seem to be on track with an ATAR of up to 79. This essentially means that achieving an ATAR of 90 at this stage seems rather unlikely, given that you would need optimal HSC exam performance across your subjects, which may be overwhelming to reach. However...

    Atar and moderated marks

    Would you be able to break that down in terms of your individual subjects? For example, 5 band 6's in Mathematics Advanced, 2 band 6's in Biology, etc.

    Atar and moderated marks

    For more accurate estimates, it would be a good idea to provide the number of band 6's achieved at your school in each of your subjects. You can find this information on HSCninja. :)

    tips for using checking/extra time after math exam?

    Anyone Struggling With IPT

    I think that deciding to drop IPT based on a prediction of an unfavourable HSC result is questionable. First, you have not yet sat your IPT HSC exam, so a decision to drop the subject prematurely is not an informed one. At the same time, dropping IPT would mean that all your efforts directed...

    Combined Bachelor of Enginering (honours) + Bachelor of science at Usyd

    I can answer some of your questions. First, the Bachelor of Advanced Studies is essentially an additional year of study, during which a student can either take advanced coursework subjects or complete an Honours year. This is useful if the student wishes to gain more knowledge about their field...

    Speculative ATAR estimate

    Considering this information, OP's performance is consistent with an ATAR in the low 90s. Specifically, that would be an ATAR no lower than 90.5 and up to 94. English Advanced and Society and Culture seem to be OP's best-performing subjects and are likely to make a positive contribution to her...

    Speculative ATAR estimate

    A state rank is determined by the overall HSC mark. While being ranked first internally is typically needed for a state rank alongside favourable HSC exam performance, if you perform well enough in the subject's HSC exam, such that your overall HSC mark ends up being higher than the student...

    Speculative ATAR estimate

    Demons is correct. Additionally, the HSC exam marks available on rawmarks.info are aligned, not scaled. Alignment is a process that NESA performs that modifies raw marks according to band descriptors of a particular HSC subject. The marks that you receive as part of your HSC results are aligned...

    Appreciate it, Alien X! :D Given this information, your current performance is consistent with an ATAR up to 95.

    Is It Possible To Redeem Ranks?

    Improvement to your overall performance in the subject through favourable HSC exam performance is possible, especially since you mentioned that you know the subject's content very well. The problem is that, unlike HSC subjects with no major work component, the Industrial Technology HSC exam is...
