Hey

My ranks after the half yearlies are:

English Advanced: 157/221
Maths 2U: 67/149
Maths 3U: 67/87
Chemistry: 65/100
Physics: 39/73
Economics: 32/46

I still have 40% - 45% of my school assessments left including trials
My school is ranked 64th
My Atar aim is 97
Can i get there if i gun the rest of my assessments and HSC even though it would be hard to considering (i think) my school is quite competitive???
Or am i being highly unrealistic???

If I were you I'd stop wasting my time asking for an ATAR estimate - put my head down and work my ass off this very moment. At least this will enable you to get the best you can now possibly get.

What if somebody tells you you should get a 95 say? What purpose would that serve??

Target Ranks:

English Adv - 60/221
Maths 2U - 20/149
Maths 3U - 30/87
Chem - 20/100
Physics - 15/73
Economics - 10/46

Should be looking at 96-97 with that.

85 - 90

All your ranks have to go up significantly for you to achieve your aim. Hypothetically speaking,

English Advanced: ~50/221
Maths 2U: ~15/149
Maths 3U: ~20/87
Chemistry: ~20/100
Physics: ~15/73
Economics: ~15/46

If you attain these ranks and proceed to do well in the external exam you have a chance of meeting your aim.

looking at a 75+ now

Let's face it all of your ranks are below 50th percentile for your grade

Improve your ranks drastically for that 97+ dream

g'luck
