This dude in my school got ATAR of 99 and he did no math and no sciences

He was awarded as one of the all-rounder excellence students in our school. This was last year

They are quite accurate. But you can't just put in your current marks - you have put in themarks you get from the board of studies the day before ATARs are released.

If you know how the system works, you can use them as a good estimate for what you can get/what marks you need to get to get the ATAR you want.

If you've 500 kids in your subject you may only need to be in top 100 (depends on how strong your school cohort is) where if you have only 5 kids in your subject and usually only the top kid gets a band 6, you'll need to come 1st etc

Oh bahahaha. My brain is so gone... i need sleep =='

I am going to go the super safe route and say:

Adv english - Top 10
Gen maths - Top 10
Economics - Top 5
Legal studies - Top 9
Biology - Top 10

Try and get as high as possible but you need to kill general seeing as it scales really badly.
