Hi guys, I have been wondering if Maths Standard impacts ATAR drastically/much, I'm in Year 10 and I'm currently in Maths Standard Pathway and I have the chance to move up to Advanced Maths Pathway for year 11 Advanced, if I work hard this time, I do know that Maths Standard in yr 11 scales down but do you guys have any friends, or yourselves or anyone you know who did Maths Standard but still got over 90+ or 95+ atars?? I'm aiming for as high as possible but can I accomplish that with Maths Standard, like Dux or top atars 99/98+ anything else, because for me, its just my maths that is average (Standard) mostly. Generally asking people who already gotten their ATAR marks or are doing ATAR very soon. Is the impact/scaling/difference drastic between Standard yr 11-12 and Advanced?? Is it generally possible for me to move to accelerated or is it very hard even if I really put my effort in? And also, if anyone who has ever done Maths Standard for HSC but got 90+ ATARS plss give me advicee it would help me a lot, having a hard time deciding, not the deciding but just does Maths Standard affect a lot, like is it impossible to get 99.95 atar with it? ALSO DOES MATHS STANDARD AFFECT YOUR CHOICES IN UNI??? LIKE THE COURSES.. this one is important to me,
To those who don't want to read ^
1. Anyone who have done Maths Standard but got over 90-99.95 atar with it?
2. Anyone who got Dux and/or top atar/top of their school with Maths Standard?
3. Does the scaling impact a lot (decreasing) - What's the difference between Standard yr 11-12 and Advanced?
4. Does Maths Standard affect what University Courses you can take? e.g. you get 99.95 but u do Maths Standard so you can't go into medicine study.
5. Any Advice if I should move from Maths Standard to Advance?
6. Are there chances for me to get to Accelerated Maths at this time, stage late on, is it too late?
This will be very helpful for me tyyy T-T
