Hi all, may I please have an estimation of my atar - these values are final as I have completed my trials.
My goal is an 89+ atar

School rank - 130s

SDD - 96% - 1/9
Engineering Studies - 92% - 1/11
Physics - 81% - 4/16
English Adv - 70% - 25/62
Math 2U - 93% - 4/45
Math 3U - 88% - 5/24

No one here will be able to give you a good estimate. Ask your school, they are far better qualified to give you an estimate, especially after trials.

If you want to maximise your ATAR, put the majority of your effort into english advanced between now and the HSC. It is going to bring up your ATAR far more than eeking out a couple extra marks in maths or physics.

Good luck :)

Considering the information you have provided, I believe you could be looking at an ATAR somewhere between 90 and 93. You are in a very good position in terms of your ranks across most of your subjects, particularly Software Design and Development and Engineering Studies. The only potential concern is your English Advanced rank. English Advanced is a subject that can impact your ATAR significantly and is the only subject you will not be able to use your backup unit for as the best 2 units of English are always counted towards your ATAR. This means that your performance in the HSC English Advanced exam (since you mentioned the values you have provided are final) will be crucial, i.e. you need to perform to the best of your abilities in this exam in order to maximise your chances of achieving your desired ATAR (which may likely be an ATAR quite higher than what you're aiming for), while at the same time maintaining your favourable performance in the rest of your subjects, which can also be done through optimal performance in the HSC exams. Keep in mind that the HSC exam is worth 50% of your final mark for each of your subjects, meaning it is a great opportunity to achieve great final marks, especially considering that your HSC exam marks are based on your own performance, and are unaffected by factors such as your school rank.

I hope this helps! :D

I would say low 90 at the moment. But this is kind of dependent on performing highly in those subjects in HSC as well, because at the moment your english mark may bring you down. Try to improve your marks there and you should be able to get your goal
