Hey there!
Im also aiming for a 98 ATAR, and i understand this frustration.
Let me just remind you that the majority of ATAR calculators do not factor in the internally assessed marks. The ATAR calculators use historic data in order to estimate what you're most likely to get based on a single mark. Internal assessments are moderated to based on ranks, but Internal marks make up half your HSC mark!
The process of scaling and moderating is pretty confusing, personally i'm no expert on it. However, i can say for sure that there is no way to accurately predict an ATAR this early in year 12.
The best advice i can offer you is just to keep working hard and trying. Comparison is the thief of joy! Your HSC journey is unique to you and you just gotta aim for your own personal best. ☺
