What ATAR do you think I am looking at?

I am not sure of my school's rank (its a private school though) but here are my final internal ranks:

History Extension: 1/5
Modern History: 2/8
Business Studies: 1/16
Extension English: 2/9
Advanced English: 3/39
Legal Studies: 2/15

Thanks xoxo

For school rank try this link: http://images.smh.com.au/file/2010/12/15/2097102/HSC Performance 2010.pdf. Its out of date, but it ranks on total DA count. Also, try using this to tell us how many people got a band 6 at your school last year in each of your subjects http://topscores.info/select-nsw.php.

You've definitely reached an ATAR of 80, possibly 90.

Thanks. My school rank is 221, and I dont understand why last year's performance has anything to do with my own.

It doesnt, however, the strength of your cohort does have an impact on your performance. Previous school rankings give us a general idea on the relative strength of a cohort. It isnt very reliable, but its the "best" method of predicting ATARs. Given your school ranking, I would say you are probably looking at 88-93 - since your cohort isnt very large, this estimate is a bit difficult. However, I am pretty sure that you have enough there for 80+.
