still, to get a 99.5 you'll need band 6s across all your subjects, realistically you're towards the bottom end of your cohort in bio, food tech and maths and it's unlikely you'll get a mid-90 overall mark for these three so unless you get 97+ externally in your subjects a 99 atar is virtually impossible
how many b6s did you school get for each subject last year?
I was being nice to, realistically this is like low 70s ngl, even with some decent rankings they are in the bottom percentile for everything so idk if they gonna reach 80 so this has to be a trollfr bro I actually thought they were trolling w the 99.5
bro same I said 80s to 90s but being ranked that low is realistically a band 4 for bio pdh math and food tech
an 80 is untouchable unless they insanely clutch externals
90 is impossible, 85 still like 99% difficulty, 80 uhh idk, 76-77bro same I said 80s to 90s but being ranked that low is realistically a band 4 for bio pdh math and food tech
fr90 is impossible, 85 still like 99% difficulty, 80 uhh idk, 76-77
sorry bro if you're going for law (since you commented on the lat post) you can't make usyd or unsw (unless you're gateway/mysydney) hope you can make mqu or elsewhere
Unfortunately, these ranks at a school ranked 200+ are not consistent with an ATAR of 99.5+. An ATAR of 99.5+ is very high, and at schools ranked in the 200+ range, maximising your chances of such a high ATAR from an internal perspective would require optimal ranks, that is, placing at least among the top 5, preferably top 3 and ideally first within your cohort across each of your subjects. You were able to achieve this in Community and Family Studies, but you would need to mirror this standard of performance across your subjects for your overall performance to be consistent with a 99.5+ ATAR.
Hey mate, im in a similar situation as this guy, but i know i can get 90s in all my subjects . is 90 still looking achivable (plus its out 3rd year and the kids this year look much smarter). i flopped my ranks coz i procastinated during trials (i still am procastinating)Unfortunately, these ranks at a school ranked 200+ are not consistent with an ATAR of 99.5+.

On a different note, I came across another thread of yours. If your main goal is to study law at university, but you fear that you may not achieve a sufficiently high ATAR, a potential approach that you can consider against those that others suggested (all of which are still valid) is to study law at another university, where the ATAR requirement is lower or where you can receive an offer through a non-ATAR pathway. For example, the ATAR requirement for ACU's Bachelor of Laws is 75. You can also receive an offer for WSU's Bachelor of Laws (whether as a single degree or double degree), which requires an LSR of 90, by having adjustment factors applied to your selection rank, or through its HSC True Reward Early Offer Program. This will allow you to subsequently transfer to a more established law school such as that of USyd and UNSW, while retaining the ability to study law if you fail to transfer.
I hope this helps!
no, not even if you 100 all of your externals. it is impossible. you're looking at 75ish from your internals. 80s is doable if you work harderHi guys, these are my ranks:
24/30 maths advanced
8/33 english advanced
1/24 community and family studies – highkey cooked for this one
19/33 pdhpe
17/22 food tech
33/34 biology - i failed trials
My school is ranked 200+
My goal is to get a 99.5 atar. Would this be possible? Im hoping that my cafs and English rank carry me… hopefully i get a cafs state rank so that will contribute a lot to my atar
HSC exam marks of 90+ across your subjects would certainly increase your chances of achieving an ATAR of 90 significantly. If your cohort also performs favourably in the HSC exams, this will likely have positive consequences in terms of your Assessment Marks, which also helps improve your chances of achieving your ATAR goal.
wait im fr curious what made you think you were gunning for a .5?Hi guys, these are my ranks:

Law (they created a whole thread on what happens if I get a 70 atar and want to do law)
From this information, you seem to be on track with an ATAR of up to 80.5. This means that the upper end of your ATAR goal is definitely within reach, subject to similar HSC exam performance.Gentlemanlygerm said:
Based on this information, your current performance seems consistent with an ATAR of up to 78.@jimmysmith560 Would love to call in the big guns if you don't mind
