Judging by your inability to correctly spell the word "Estimate" I would guess low 70s

Thanks guys

Thats Standard English for you

Judging by your inability to correctly spell the word "Estimate" I would guess low 70s

Also is mid 70s the maximum I can get. If I hopefully get band 5 for all my subjects, can I reach to an 80 without Bonus points?

Depends how you performed externally, I would say it is possbile, but not highly likely

My School rank is now in the top 160 for 2012. Can you guys pls do my atar estimate again?

If you did well externally maybe a low 80 (81ish) maximum.

You won't get a band 5 for English. Given your ranks are fairly low for most subjects, I would say band 5's are only possible in SDD and Business. I would say an atar of 70 at the moment.

How do you know? 3 guys in the previous year receive a worse rank than I have and their subjects were pretty low scaled and they receive a decent atar >70 so I will say anything is possible though.

The thing is, if even one person in your cohort screws up their external exam, your moderated assessment rank will be pulled right down, killing any chance you have of a band 5 in that subject unless you absolutely smash the external, that's why I said it is very unlikely that you can get band 5's in the subjects where your rank is low, seeing as your school rank is 160 so atleast one person is bound to mess up. So no, it's not impossible, but you are relying extremely heavily on your cohort. And it is practically impossible for you to get a b5 in english. Standard English is the worst aligning subject there is, so you need to be in atleast the top 5 to have any chance of a b5.

How do you define well? Is this getting a 80 for each HSC exam

If you did well externally maybe a low 80 (81ish) maximum.
