    People estimate their HSC marks?

    You can only do a rough prediction as you can’t fully predict how the external exam will play out.The only semi accurate estimate that you will do is in the 24 hours between you getting your HSC marks and the ATAR itself. My estimates were higher than what I got.

    Trials question

    So that means you're ranked between 1 and 3 in your school at the moment. Depending on your school rank i would say that you're well positioned for the external HSC exam. Do you know how your internal rank effects your ATAR? If not I can explain.

    Engineering for a shy guy?

    Communication skills are something that can 100% be learned and shyness can change as you get older. Pursue whatever you want to pursue, if you discover you don't like it just do something else. It's not to be taken lightly but not THAT serious.

    Subjects and hsc

    70-75 is achievable but only if you get 85%+ in externals for all subs. Put your head down and reap the rewards.

    Need guidance

    Am I too old for uni?

    No. I know extremely successful people that have went to University in their 30s or 40s. I personally don't expect to graduate until my mid-late 20's as well. Degree takes a back seat to industry reputation and experience. Also, not many 26-27 year old's have their life anywhere near to "done".
