    What happens to your ATAR if you go to a top 20 school but rank last in a subject?

    Say you go to a top 20 school and you happen to be ranked last in a subject for trials (but you're not usually last), and your mark isn't downright terrible. Will your others drag your ATAR up or will you drag everyone else down? Thanks

    Should I pick up Studies of Religion 1 unit? Or stick to Eco/Geo??

    I made a previous post and I have semi-decided to keep English Extension because I might be able to BS my way to mid 70s which scales decently. So I'll be on 11 units. BUT my school is really paranoid about the whole safety net of doing 12 units. So I am highly recommended to pick up studies of...
