About to start HSC exams and really need the hard truth atar estimate (1 Viewer)

[wilsoz]

Since I'm about to fail my HSC due to not studying enough (I started studying today), I really need an ATAR estimate to see about where I fail.
The guide says to say school ranking and subject positions so here I go.
From sydney technical high which is rank 15 according to better education.
Subject ranks are (~ is approximate)
5/20~ for Business
9/19 for IPT
160~/160~ for English Advanced (Yes I know I suck balls)
Low mid for Legal Studies
6/6 for DT (accidentally missed an exam)

Anyone mind helping a guy properly wallow in despair?

Sydney Tech is actually ranked in the 20s-30s usually (from what I've heard/seen). I'm estimating, if you're lucky, ~90. But there is a very high chance that it is in the 80s region, solely due to your english rank. If you completely ace your externals, it is possible to get 90+ but currently it's not looking good as your only subjects that are moderately ok ranking are Business and IPT, in which you need to achieve fairly high (90>) to obtain a better scaling from them. But if you want to ensure a higher ATAR, definitely dedicate your studies to English this whole weekend.

oh wow, that's more decent than I expected.
Thanks for the reassurance.
