school rank: like 230th in 2009, 500th in 2010, it fluctuates though 2008 was 300th and 2007 was 150th i think, however, my cohort is the smartest by quite a bit according to SC results so yeah

engrish adv: 10-15/30
maffs 3u: 1/12
maffs 4u: 1/5
chem: 1/20
physics: 1/15

good ranks but they're sorta meaningless given my school rank :(
dude you're raping everything, fuck the school rank, just bring your english adv rank up a bit and you'll be set for 98+ guaranteed (possibly 99.xx).

And you're probably one of the only people your school has had who's first in everything other than english, yes?

you probably got lazy for externals? idk

There was a guy on here before who got 99.95 in 2009 I think his name was boredsomething, i forgot tbh, but his school rank was 250ish and he came first in everything (even english), so you might have a shot depending on externals

Nah, my externals were mostly fine. Not amazing, but decent. Didn't do great in extensions (MX/EX) though, so they lowered my mark. I don't know, I never really put any effort in at any stage of the process.

oe

if u can get 80+ umat and 99+ atar you should just make it into getting interviews, which you'll then need to destroy

i received an interview (done my hsc in 09) at unsw with 99.3 and 83%ile
with uws, its a bit different, they take your marks for ur first 2 sections and half of ur third section (2:2:1) and if the total of that is > 140 (approximately 140, fluctuates yearly) and u have a decent atar (>98 i think) youll also get an interview

you should consider actuarial studies. your good at maths you'd like it
Not always the case.

@OP OE you will get over 90 in ATAR pretty easily, my guess is like..97+. No idea for the umat shit since I dunno that stuff
engineering is also using science to help humanity, though it's different from what you're thinking I think

To all the users confused on OE's gender. It's a SHE!!!!!!! jk he's a guy

iruler, boredofsoemthing went oatley, oatley has a really strong upper cohort (because it has over 300-400 kids per year). The top kids at oatley are really smart, while most others arent. That school gets a 100-150 b6/e4s

Our [bos] atar estimators are unreliable. When you're ranked 1st in your cohort, your hsc mark is entirely reliant on how well you do in your externals. School rank won't do crap
Except for english...but you'd smash it anyway

Theology is an excellent course. Contrary to popular belief it leads to many fulfilling careers such as priesthood or nunary.
