Your brother's teachers were most likely extremely tough markers for that big a difference to occur. The markers at my school are quite reasonable...neither too hard nor too lenient, although there are a couple who are notorious for marking slightly less leniently.

A student in a school ranked badly is still capable of getting 99+.
of course you can get that but to be honest if your school is doing badly, it will almost definitely drag you down a bit.

mining engineering has the highest starting pay out of any university course (I think, don't quote me on that one) and it had a UAI cut-off of 78 at UNSW last year.

Yeah, but the problem is you have to live your life at Mount Isa or Cooper Pedy or somewhere like that for most of your life.

Lol, that's like Shakespeare saying he sucks at playwriting. Man, you seem to be awesome at maths. You should consider engineering though; really good employment opportunities.
