With those ranks I would say 86-90. It would most probably be around 87-88, but I think 90 is achievable for you at this point. Try to keep in mind that my estimate of ranks in my first post was conservative, as those ranks would probably be enough to get you a bit more then 80.

I dont know for sure. I can only estimate based on my experience. Also, I entered what I thought you would get in each subject into an ATAR calculator. When asking for an ATAR estimate on this site, it is often best to get estimates from a few people so you get a more accurate picture. But I do believe that 90 is possible for you given those rankings, although some minor improvement may be needed.

Given those ranks, I would be very suprised if you got less then 80. Its more about ranks then marks - in SOR I had a raw internal mark of 67% which got aligned to 88 for my school assessment mark.

You got to push advanced to at least the top 20, but preferably the top 15. Also try moving up 2 or 3 places in Modern, geography and business. As someone who went through this a year ago, I know its easier said then done, but if you can do it, then will have a strong chance of getting 90+.

As a comment: Personally, I don't like it when people say 'what ranks get me x ATAR'. One, because I don't like doing that inverse operation. Two, because people might rest on the laurels if they get those marks - though that is countered by the fact that if we, as ATAR estimators, give an estimate higher than their aim - they'll rest on their laurels anyway.

Anyway, ~85
