Hey jim can u help me pls? so i currently go to a school ranked under 500 like i don't even think its known to this planet, but I really need to get a 90-95+ atar is it still possible even if I grind and just kill myself to study 24/7 ? or is the school gonna catch up on me and bring me down? on average the best they get is like 1 band 6 a year if anything:( what would be my odds and whatdo I have to do?

No worries! A school rank is simply an indication of the internal ranks required to be consistent with a certain ATAR. Generally speaking, the higher the school rank (e.g. a high-ranked selective school), the lower the internal ranks needed to achieve an identical ATAR to a student attending a lower-ranked school, where the latter would need higher internal ranks to be consistent with that same ATAR.

In your case, placing 1st across your subjects is ideal and would essentially mean that there would not be limits to your ATAR, especially if you also do well in your HSC exams. :)

@Average Boreduser whattt that’s crazy. how would you even go into depth and hit all the criteria with just two pages? that’s dumb. and our scientific reports are always take home.

Idk if I'd consider it dumb tho tbch. It's because people are prolly doing their assessments the day before using a certain website called 'chatgpt' and therefore would make everyone who did their assessments fairly less impressive- despite them putting 10x more effort into their work.

Yeah but I think it should still longer than two pages 😭
heyy guys!!, I need some help on what to write in my 3 chapters! I'm so confused
My pip topic is "An in depth study of feminism and equality across western and asian culture, the effects of media and its possible consequences it has on society"
I might be going to the Navy.
This has to do with my desire to do great things in relation to the skills I master such as money, but in order to master anything, I need both a lifestyle that gives me a responsibility in order to develop the discipline to succeed In my goals, as well as explore the various types of goals I would like to take up under that organisation, while remaining true to myself.

No idea, but IF I do, which I am starting to change my mind now after achieving want I wanted already coincidentally already only 2 hours later, I would like anything to do with warships, because they look like cool bahemoths, which is the main reason why I even considered the idea.

After seeing the mark you get or seeing where your ideas of things you have noticed turned out to be incorrect, ask yourself:
- Why did you get the question wrong and why is that question being asked?
- Is it the right question to ask, and if you have to answer that specific question even though it isn't sensible because you're simply getting a knowledge test, how can you satisfy the person testing you?

By doing so, you gain more insight/awareness of what sub-questions you need to be asking yourself AND answering first in order to make your mind map of the each topic, as well as how they relate to one another within the module, to be able answer with clear enough understanding as you would have towards something like the nuanced details of a video game's lore.

[If that video game example doesn't resonate with you in particular, regardless of whether or not you can think of something to relate to in terms of being wise towards, it doesn't matter, all that matters now is that you try to connect enough dots in order to get closer and closer to being as wise and as skilled as you need to be in order to start testing your weaknesses more than your successes.]
pabby how hard is it to get a 95 atar from ur experience? could u please help, I'm dying 😭
