Subject Scaling HELP (1 Viewer)

[Oluffy]

Do my subjects for the HSC scale well? How well do they scale?

Subjects are:
2 unit maths (preliminary not general)
Biology
Legal studies
Economics
Studies of religion (compulsory)
English Standard

Take advanced English

At the end of the day, if you do really well, scaling won't matter too much. Except with Standard English - Band 6's in Standard are so rare, and even if you manage to achieve one, it doesn't scale too well. Advanced English, if you think you can handle it, is always the way to go IMO.

Regardless, I recommend messing around with some ATAR calculators, just to get a rough idea. Just make sure you take whatever the calculators say with a grain of salt - nothing can predict your ATAR or scaling of subjects with exactitude because it depends on the quality of the state cohort and a bunch of other variables.

in terms of ATAR scaling, it is best to check the UAC reports to see what the scaled mark is in comparison to its mean/average, as it changes every year. but generally, in order (roughly): eco/2u > bio > SOR/legal >>>>> english standard

I'd probably rank them like this:

1) Economics
2) English Standard (the scaling is useless considering Standard's shocking aligning)
3) 2U Maths
4) Biology
5) Legal Studies
6) SOR
