OK ppls does anyone know how many raw marks is needed to improve from an atar of 95.75 to a 98? And is it still possible to get that 98 if I already worked quite hard to get that 95.75?

My raw marks atm
English 80/100
Maths 88/100
Maths 3U 44/50
Physics 81/100
Chem 71/100 (1 unit counted)
Eco 80/100

Marks honestly don't mean much because we don't know the difficulty of your schools tests and how hard they mark. What is your school rank and your ranks at school?

a) raw marks dont mean jack
b) if this 'atar of 95.75' was an estimate issued by ur school then yes.. (as schools are inaccurate)

Oh soz.. I go to baulkham hills high school. I got the atar estimate from the school based on last years results. I'm not sure about the school rank though, should be top 10 in nsw I think. I'm not really an expert on this stuff. Sorry again

Pretty sure you don't go to Baulko because you'd know your school rank for sure and you wouldn't have an estimate of around 95 with those marks because apparently Baulko marks pretty harsh so yeah...

He probably goes to Chifley College and says he goes to Baulkham Hills since the school claims to mark as harsh and give as difficult exam papers.
