Everyone has different standards right? Sooo what marks (%) are you content with, and what marks realistically would you be really happy about getting (and above obviously).
Heres mine: (first no=content/2nd=happy)

English: 92/100
Maths: 95/100
Psychology: 90/95
Chemistry: 85/93
Biology: 80/90

I'm really just content as long as I pass. I can get 52/100 and be perfectly fine with it. Although of course whenever I get marks in the 90's I'm happier.

Realistically, im going to be very sad i think when i get my results if I aim that high ;) Methinks, i'll probably land between my content/happy mark for most of my subjetcs, i hope :(

It depends on what position (rank) l get and how many people pass, and what the top mark was etc.

I most love getting first so it doesn't matter what score.

I get so much grief for this at school but here goes:

MUST be first in modern (its my fav subject and it really killed me for coming 2nd in prelims )

MUST be first in eco (i hate it but first position is vital cos i dont want somebody elses hsc mark for my assessment mark considering my class sint exactly top notch)

Band 6 in Maths would be nice considering i droped 3u to do well in 2u

Eng ( band 6 is what im aiming for but ill settle for high eighties)

Eng ext 1 :*crosses fingers for band E4* except i need to majorly step up my committment to this subject to achieve that :(

ext hist: ooo i would love a band E4 for this :D im working hard in this subject so we'll see :)

argh...my standards are too high....
