You may want to work on your English, I mean, when you say your "English isn't that good", and you do 5 humanities subjects, that is a little bit worrying. Hopefully you can string a few words together to make an essay.

Anyway, as with scaling (ie. for your ATAR), your best scaling subjects are Modern History and Extension History (best scaling as in for humanities). The rest are average, but aligning-wise (for your HSC mark), Standard is pretty bad.

Sure you can get 90, but you're going to have to work reasonably hard with average aligning and scaling subjects.

You're going to have to work on your English, as it will always count.

But it's definitely possible, aided if you like and enjoy the subjects you do.

Of course you can get 90 ATAR, you just have to work hard. Besides, you should always work hard anyway...
