I got 17 out of 25 in my first HSC SOR1 assessment thats worth 30% and i'm ranked 33rd (1 Viewer)

How bad is this, since we only have 2 more internal assessments including the mock trial and I'm aiming for a 95+ ATAR. Feelign really down at the moment and don't know if I can recover

In all honesty, there's so many more factors to consider with regards to your 95+ ATAR aim:

1) How many people get a 95+ ATAR every year on average in your school?
2) How many people get a Band 6 in SOR1 (assuming you want to get a Band 6)?
3) Externals will contribute 50% of your ATAR.

Right now, I wouldn't focus on worrying about your ATAR and how that will be affected; rather, focus on the next exam or next assignment, spend quality time putting in hard work and consistency and sure enough, with strong results, you should be able to get your target ATAR at the end of next year.
