TBH, probably not likely. Band sixes in Standard English are extremely rare.

Yes as mentioned before, Band 6 is highly rare only a few people get them in the state maybe around 100 people from my guess?... You could possibly if your internal ranking is 1st and you just bomb your external also :p.

But seems like your on a high band 5 atm

The biggest pain is regretting the fact that you didn't try. How many times have you been upset when you aimed for 90 but got 87 or so? The answer for most people would be that they were in fact happy with the result.

i don't really care if i don't get a band 6 for English, I'm just actually surprised that I'm doing well considering I'm a maths based person.

just out of curiosity i wanted to know if i was able to get a band 6, that's all.
