Ten units? I could never do that... too risky for me. However, it seems not to hurt you because I estimate your ATAR to be 92.40. Although if you posted your marks I could possibly get it more accurate...

I meant like internal assessment marks, so your school marks. Although if you looked somewhere else in the forum, I believe the Ombudsman screamed the BoS for being too secretive and now requests for raw marks are allowed (don't quote me on that though).

Bio, eh? I heard it's boring... so I picked Legal instead =P

I'll see if I can... I already dropped Econ. Anyway, I'm coming first in Legal - so I shouldn't drop that. Don't mention that I am, well was, coming first in Econ as well.

220 minutes of study periods a week, or 3 hours and 40 minutes. It seems enough to do all the work.

I think I read that too, somewhere here on a forum.

Shame it scales so bad. Since you like it. Physics and Chemistry are interesting. It's amazing how much technology we take for granted.

Well, bands differ from year to year depending on the exam I think. Marks are scaled, to get the scaled mark - and these scaled marks are given indicators so like scaled marks 70-85 may be Band 5.

So the answer to your question is it will scale down, all the time - but not by much I think.
