Adv. English: 3/13, 89%
Economics:1/7, 82%
General Maths:1/52, 95%
Legal:2/16, 88%
Modern: 4/16, 88%

External (raw estimates)
Adv English: 85-86%
Economics:82-84%

Also, if I was to get those raw marks, what do you think they would align to?

Aligning:
English-92
Eco-92
Maths-96
Legal-93
Modern-91

But just remember that HSC marking schemes are extremely picky, so kids generally overestimate their raws by not compensating for these marking schemes.

Overall ATAR: 97

Yeah I definitely know that they are picky...these are estimated marks catering to that (according to my standards). I already know multiple choice marks for all so I estimated from there

Those externals would get you:

Adv English: 92 (depends on the modules as well)

Economics: 85

General: 85

Legal: 88

Modern: 90

I'm taking the worst case scenario here.

94+

Most Advanced kids at our school in previous years have gotten around that mark (high band 5) with 1 or 2 stragglers (high band 4).
Nice try though. 300 schools aren't dumbasses. Not ours anyway

Sylvan is high school is rank number 200, I would have found your actual school but apparently no1 cares about schools past 200 to rank them.

This school is not only a higher ranked school than yours, it has a larger cohort though. Even though you only do general math you should be able to connect the dots and find out what that means in relation to the following-
Only 2 people achieved a band 6 at all in english last year.
2/ a larger cohort than yours
And the school is higher ranked as well.

86% sure thing buddy

"Only do general math". Buddy I dropped down from 2 unit but only because I don't need maths at uni. Nothing wrong with general maths, not for me anyway as I am getting 95%.

Nice try in your attempt to put me down because I don't go to a school that's in the top 200. I have confidence in my ability and I don't need negative people like you telling me otherwise.

Just a piece of advice from me:

Expect anything above 85.

I go to a 600+ school and I am expecting anything above 75. I'll get a mystery mark. So I made a bingo thread which I will bump soon just before results are released.
