People will generally recommend that you do the highest possible course that you feel comfortable with. Try out Standard for a little while and see how it goes. If you find it too difficult, then you can do ESL. I'm not sure what the entry requirements for ESL are, but supposing you can freeely drop down to ESL, I would advise doing Standard first.

There are probably people who got Band 4s for English in the SC, but who are doing Advanced for the HSC...so I guess you should go for Standard, but if you're struggling drop to ESL.
