Ok so i need 91-92+ to get into unsw's commerce course (relying on hsc plus to give me an extra 4 points if possible). Is this possible if these are my marks for my trials and overall ranking and results.

School Ranking: 600s
(Last year did really bad and the teachers say this year the top 5 will really well compared to them. Dux is in all my subjects except english and he got an estimate from year coordinator of 99.8) <= dunno if this is relevant lol

Trials: CSSA Paper Raw %s
Maths ext 2: 60% 3/4
Maths ext 1: 70% 5/12
Chemistry: 68% 3/15
Physics: 82% 2/17
English Standard: 71% 4/90

Overall Ranking
Maths ext 2: 65% 3/4
Maths ext 1: 75% 5/12
Chemistry: 71% 4/15
Physics: 83% 2/17
English Standard: 71% 4/90

Dux's Results (again dont know if this is relevant lol)
Trials: CSSA Paper Raw %s
Maths ext 2: 70% 1/4
Maths ext 1: 82% 1/12
Chemistry: 88% 1/15
Physics: 89% 1/17
English Advance: 80% 3/10

Overall Ranking
Maths ext 2: 90% 1/4
Maths ext 1: 95% 1/12
Chemistry: 93% 1/15
Physics: 96% 1/17
English Advance: 78% 4/10

Had about 1-3 days study for each subject for trials. Ever since i got these results I've been cut and studying heaps everyday. Is it still possible for me to get 92+.

Lol I quite doubt your dux can get 99.8 but anyway.

Find out how many people got over 90 last year. I think there will be no more than 3-4. So I would say 92+ is quite a high order. Relying on HSCPlus is not a good idea, it should not be something you are banking on. Too risky.

Last years cohort did very bad to us this year according to our teachers. I think 2 got over 90s and there were in range of 90-92. Our school use to get 7-9 people in 90s 2 years back. Our teacher goes our class did much better than the previous year in our trials and that our averages are much higher. For HSC plus im hopefully gonna get 4points for getting e3+ for my maths. Our maths teacher said we are probably on par with last years group who did ext2 maths (they killed maths but got dragged down from the other subjects). They all got 95-98 for 4u.

Regardless I think 92 is quite out of reach for you atm. Keep working for it. Your std Eng mark will be bad for you UAI. Also work on that 4U rank.

If you get 100 in all your externals, I dont see why not. There is always a chance.
