Below there are a list of questions in RED that i would like you to answer with some information before it, if you don't mind reading...
My subjects are:

Answer honestly and realistically please...
(More questions will be added in the posts as I remember)
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR READING!

Due to these concerns, i'm also beginning to worry whether i would be able to gain entry into the university courses i wish to study. Below there are a list of questions in RED that i would like you to answer with some information before it, if you don't mind reading...
My subjects are:
- English (Standard)
- Mathematics
- Business Studies
- IPT
- Music 1
- Studies of Religion I
University Choices (Planned order on my UAC form)
- UTS: Bachelor of IT (Co-Op Program)
- UNSW: Bachelor of Information Systems & Management (Co-Op Program)
- UNSW: Bachelor of Computer Science (Co-Op Program)
- UTS: Bachelor of Sound & Music Design Combined With Bachelor of Arts in International Studies
- UNSW: Bachelor of Digital Media/Computer Science
- USYD: Bachelor of Commerce/IT
- USYD: Bachelor of Computer Science & Technology
Background Information
For Preliminary:
- Ranked 1st in English (Standard)
- Ranked 2nd and averaged 92% in IPT
- Averaged 90% for Business Studies
- Averaged 95% for Studies of Religion
- Everything else i've passed the school average by at least 10%
- My school is ranked top 50 in the state (Not telling you anymore, trying to conceal my identity)
- Received 100% for my first assessment in Studies of Religion
- Eventhough i ranked first for English (Standard) in Preliminary, I achieved a horrific mark for my first assessment enabling me to only pass the school average by a small percentage
- I'm not doing very well in both mathematics and music
QUESTIONS
Answer honestly and realistically please...
- What marks do i need to achieve for each of my subjects to receive an ATAR of 90+?
- Is it possible to gain entry into a co-op program with only an ATAR of 90?
- If you do terribly for your first assessment, is it still possible to receive an ATAR of 90+?
- Do you think my University choices on my UAC form are reasonable?
- Are my subjects going to pull me down?
- If you receive an overall percentage of 80% but ranked first, would your ranking matter or your mark/percentage?
- Do you know or know of anyone who has achieved an ATAR of 90+ with subjects similar to mine?
