Please estimate my ATAR, will be much appreciated
School:- Castle Hill High School (89 ranked)

Maths STD 2:- 82/146
English STD:- 61/124
Economics:- 9/17
Legal Studies:- 78/88
Business Studies:- 64/114
Even inputting 5 marks above the average of your school's 2019 performance (because you claim to be above average, even though your ranks put you at around the middle), and 5 marks below average for legal (because you rank here is a bit lower), your atar is still in the 70s. If you put in the work you can definitely get above 80, but with your marks right now, and if you continue the same way you did for internals, you'd likely get around 70s. This is just my estimate though, you seem set on proving everyone wrong so go do so and get whatever atar you want everyone here is just guessing anyways only you can determine and change your atar. Good luck.

I am above average for all my subjects except Legal Studies, its shown clearly on my report where I am in terms of my cohort and the average per subject and I am just above it.

Yeah that's why I put 5 marks above your school's average. Still came out as mid 70s. Also the average means very little, it's more about the median and distribution of marks.

Dude am I trolling? The only subject where you are above average is eng standard and that’s by 1rank.
Edit: just realised u might have meant average rather than median.

When did I say your trolling? In my reports their is a scale and a black dot represented the average and a white dot representing your position in the scale I am above in all subjects except Legal.

It’s a rhetorical question said for no other reason than lightening the mood of what may be a confrontational statement.

Here you go see for yourself
I mean firstly I probably wouldn't link your report here someone could stalk you but to each their own I guess. Secondly, in subjects that you're above average it's like by a tiny margin. If you don't agree with estimates then just grind to exceed everyones expectations and get the atar you want. You won't gain much from asking for estimates over and over until you get the one you want.

My Year 11 marks were much better then 12, I was considerably above average, despite trying harder in Year 12 don't know where I went wrong.

Don't listen to the 70.05 atar estimate. I reckon you can easily crack 80 my estimate would be 87 with these ranks.
Thanks for the feedback, yeah I really want an ATAR above 80 to get into a course in the top Unis of the state like USYD or UNSW, I would be happy with anything above 79
