Ok, so my goal is to get a 90 atar to get straight into law at wollongong, though im not sure how close I am, would really appreciate it if you could estimate for me.

School rank 2014: 132
Ranks, as well as average for the year internally:
Adv Eng:39/79 80%
PDHPE: 14/51 87%
GENERAL MATHS: 41/80 70%
LEGAL STUDIES: 7/17 80%
BUSINESS STUDIES:23/68 80%
1U RELIGION: 28/88 75%

Estimated HSC raw marks:
Adv Eng:~91/105
PDHPE:~83
GENERAL MATHS:~75
LEGAL STUDIES:~87
BUSINESS STUDIES:~83
1U RELIGION:~90

How close do you think I am to a 90 ATAR, xoxo

At this rate doesn't look good. Also wow 91/105 raw hmmm doesn't seem consistent with your rank.

@photastic lazy as fuck during year, a 91/105 would only be 6% above my average percentage for the year, also wont english, pe and legal scale to band 6's?

Assuming you will get it yes but not sure about PE, just worried your internals will drag you down, otherwise would've got 90+ hands down unless general maths drags it down.

well general is obviously only going to count for 1 unit, the pe exam will difficult meaning it has a good chance of scaling to b6, and my cohort is much stronger in comparison to last year (apart from gen math)

I agree with Photastic. A 91/105 for Eng Adv is definitely hard to obtain especially with your rank. Your average percentage throughout the year is not really a good indication of how you would do in the HSC as it depends on the difficulty of your school assessments and how hard your school marks. If you want a good indication then go look at your school Annual report to see how many people got band 6 last year for English. Even at a top 20 school in the state I can assure you getting a band 6 for Eng Adv is challenging, only approx 30-35% of the cohort gets band 6.
