Maths extension 1 - 2/55 l 80/84
English Adv - 25/70 l 72/105 hopefully 80+/105 lol

for a maths genius:

98.85-99.15

english is pulling you down a bit. but MX2 and MX1 are going to be high 90s and business mid 90s.

I reakon 97.8-99.1, maths is going to pull you up big time. However, advanced could pull you down slightly.

cause I remember posting a while back and remember getting 94 - 96 or something

The addition of trial marks changes things. Given you go to a school ranked 120, your ranks in maths are good but they dont really say much. However, your trial marks indicate that you are a mid-high E4 student in those subjects. This changes things quite a bit given the insane scaling of both maths subjects.

so this is roughly wat you need for a 99. but generally atar estimators have a margin for error of 0.15-0.25. so aim for a mark higher in eco and english.
