Not if you turn up to the exam and write your name on the paper.

I reckon you'd get 60 at min! Your school is decently ranked so probably at least 70. Probably could scrape 80.

Actually, then you might be looking at <30. I hear the BOS studies take to kindly to names, we're all just numbers within the HSC. :p

So if I were to get band 6/ E4 in everything except English (Band 4-5), will I still be getting an ATAR of 70+?

B6 in your subs in everything with a B4/5 in english would get 90+

You could easily get over 90 if you did well in your externals, I don't understand why people keep doubting themselves with such low atar expectations when they are theoretically do far better than most other people.

It would be actually really hard to get an ATAR < 30 from where you are sitting at. But if you really want to achieve an ATAR that low, which would be difficult you can try to just attempt the whole paper but make all your answers wrong - if you can.

hahaha, thankyou for this I needed a good laugh today. You're either a poor troll, or just genuinely clueless about atars. Your school rank is decent, your internal ranks are pretty good, and your subjects all scale fairly well. From here if you just rocked up to the exams having done no more study than just reading over your notes the day before you'd comfortably get over 50. Are you feeling really demotivated right now or something? because getting over 80 is certainly achievable, so heads up and aim high.
