that going mediocre/reasonable in ext. 2 may boost up your ATAR/UAI a fair bit?

No. Whiles it scales better than some other subjects, you still need to do well in it to make a difference.

Not really... if you're looking for something like that - it's Maths Extension 2.

Even then, a good mark in Mathematics is going to beat a really shit one in MX2.

Although scaling is a factor to consider, don't choose a subject based on scaling alone. It's stupid.

It's better to do good in a subject that you're proficient in than to do poorly in a higher scaling one.
