Ofcourse you can get 99 with that!

I got 84 in English advanced (a complete shock as it was my best subject) but then i got band 6 for everything else and got 99.00

BUT i also got 99 in ancient history and 98 in society and culture....... so yes, your other marks do have to be quite good if you get in the 80s or bomb in it like me.

lol i got it the otherway around 82 in assessment and 91 in exam, with an overal mark of 87 and i ended up getting up getting 99.65. i know quite a few ppl that got english mark between 86-89 that got 99.70s and 99.75s etc so its definitely possible, especially with your subjects.

Hmm.. ok let's get an estimate (Huy, yes you :p)

English Adv - 87
Biology - 97
Chemistry - 92
Maths Ext 1 - 96
Maths Ext 2 - 92
you seem rather conservative with your estimates nekkid... you got 97 for bio so you should definitely be looking at 95+ for chemistry unless you bomb out in the exam. and for math didn't you get 96 for 2u this year? so its pretty unlikely that you'll only get 92 for 4u if you doing math again next year... because 4u 92 = 93 scaled mark while 2u 96 = 92 scaled mark based on last year data... if you were to get those math marks for 4u whats the point of doing math again? you could just replace the other 2units with physics and easily get 95+ for it based on your biology results. :)

gosh your biology result is good... 97 for bio is 99 scaled. :)

Yeh... I was trying to be reasonably conservative, just in case things didn't work out as planned next year. :D

Well here's a sample for you (since I narrowly made it over 99)
I got:
Chem 90
Phys 91
Adv eng 93
Maths 95
Ext Maths 47
Ext Eng 46

-As you can see, getting very high in adv eng pushed me up, since I didn't do 4 u maths and my other marks weren't too well over 90.

You got a good English Ext mark too... although that doesn't scale as good as Maths Ext 1... which you got a good mark in as well :p

Which subject do you think pulled you down the most?
