What marks should I be aiming for to get 99.90+? (1 Viewer)

[dumNerd]

probably a .95 with a 94 in english but a 92 is probably like a .85/.9 but yeh English jst make sure your handwriting isn't bad because external markers don't care they will just give you a trash mark and move on haha (from personal experience, my internal for english was 95 but external was 89 even tho i felt like I did much better lol, which I assume is cos of trash handwriting)

Another key element to a .9 is handwriting. Practice writing under timed conditions as much as you can. Write bigger letters as it’s clearer. Your school is more accommodating than a HSC marker - who’s paid a pittance per paper. If they can’t decipher it, you are finished, regardless of what you have heard happens. They’ve drilled us this year about this. The other thing for essay based subjects is a powerful thesis. Automatically puts you into a top band (or not) based on your intro. You obv are good at both with your SR in SOR 1. But why stop at .9 when .95 is possible ?

Broo my handwriting is worse than doctors handwriting, and in an exam i automatically write cursive and its even worse am i screwed lmao

Same lol I can barely read my essays when I get them back

I think yes with 98+ 4U

Is 98+ necessary? I thought that 4U scaling kind of plateaus around 96.

I mean it can add like 1 scaled mark but yeah that’s nothing compared to even just 1 extra English mark

yh fax my mate got the same marks as me in other subs expect with an extra 3 marks in 3u and 4u...... however i got about 1 mark more than him in chem and still ended with the same ATAR.
