It's too early to tell, especially without any marks. Just keep studying! :D

My gruess right now is that your UAI is around 80++ but study hard and you can sneakly get into the 90s.

Can't really tell at this early stage. Just study hard and I'm sure you'll achieve your goal :)

The best thing you can do is ask you teachers what they predict you will get for your HSC marks (teachers are pretty good at this), and then calculate your predicted UAI on SAM.

so can anyone just give a rough estimation?
No, because you don't have your marks.

It really is TOO EARLY to tell. The more you worry about this, the worse your result will be. Just fucking study and own your tests/assessments.

It's fair impossible to give an estimation of your UAI
a) this early in the year. It's fucking FEBRUARY, you haven't even learned most of what you'll be tested on yet.
b) without knowing what EVERYONE ELSE IN THE STATE got. Because your marks don't mean shit, it's everyone else's marks which will determine your UAI.

So no, nobody can possibly give you a good estimate of your UAI, but you're using words like "desperated" which aren't even words, so it's not looking good.

Stop worrying. Nothing positive ever came out of worrying.

Thanks for the encouragement guys! I will definitely work hard!!!
But one more question, is it really true that MOST of the subjects are scaled down?

yes. although you have to remember that scaling is for the uai only and uai is a rank. So if all subjects scale down then it really doesn't matter, because in the end you are ranked. What matters is the difference in scaling between courses.

i think you should stop worrying what you get and work harder so that you will get over your own personal threshold.

what i learnt from the uai is that you can never work out what your uai will be unless your school is one of the top in the state because there are too many forces working.

/waits for someone to pull something out of their arse from star wars or some other sci fi.

looking quite good, but it really depends on how many people each year get above 95 in your school, and if your ranks at this stage qualify for that. If i had to give you a uai estimate at this stage, i would say around 96-97.
