Hi guys, this is my first post on this forum, i just wanted to ask what my possible ATAR will be with these subjects:

Mathematics 2 Unit
English Standard
Economics
Business Studies
Information Technology VET
Studies of Religion I

I am a pretty good student, i think so anyway :p

I range about 80-90, but my problem is persistance, im a little lazy but when i get started i do good :)

Seeing as this is my first post, i'd like to mention some things about me:


I am aiming to be a psychologist, and so i need to know if it is possible to get :

UWS - B Psychology - i think its an 81.something to get in
Maquarie - B Psychology - 93.65 i think
UNSW - B Psychology - 96.05
USYD - B Psychology - 97.05

If it is possible to get the highest one there (97.05) what marks do i need to get?

it doesnt matter what combination of subjects you have, what matters is your mark and rank. if you come last in the state with say a mark of 20 in all your subjects, just because you have good scaling subjects, doesnt mean you'll end up with a good uai.

try and get band 6's in everything, that will guaruntee you an atar most likely 95+ atleast. but you'd prob be able to get away with band 5s and some band 6s for some of the lower scored courses. but 85+ in everything will guaruntee you low 90s, and with ur subjects, most likely higher than that

goodluck

If its not too personal, can i ask what marks you got to achieve your ATAR?

Im trying my best for Band 6's in everything that is possible (except for Standard English) .

I think a band 6 in each of your subjects and a high band 5 in english should get you what you want

I'd say, since you are a "good" student, to your eyes, you'll probably get around 83-84 with those subjects. You'll need to get very, very high marks on those Band 6's for mostly all to get 97.
