Standard English: 3/50

Can I achieve a 60+ ATAR judging from these internals, excluding the thought of externals as of yet?

DUDEEEEEE YES! YOU'RE RANKED 2ND FOR ENGLISH. DON'T GIVE UP HOPE YOU'RE LOOKING AT A 75 - 80 imo.

Yes, in my opinion you are well above 60. The average ATAR is roughly 75 and by your ranks you seem to be just above average. So I estimate high 70s-low 80s.

Finish strong, boy.

That's the spirit.

Why not start now? You have half a day left.

I'm not always one to make excuses, but I work in an hour. Gotta clean the house too.

And are you all certain? I really don't understand how I can achieve a 60+ with such horrible ranks (including the school rank) other than english...

Believe me, I've seen people with much worse ranks who achieved at least 60. If you're uncertain, ask OzKo/enoilgam since they're usually more "accurate" but I am 99% sure that you will achieve AT LEAST 70.

Don't get complacent though.

Also, how badly will I be scaled for Standard English, is it as bad as they say? Just starting to get a bit worried as the HSC looms upon us :S

Standard English has poor aligning and so, few people get Band 6. However, it's not like the bands are limited to the number of people but I know 3 people from a single school that got B6 in Standard English and two of those were state ranks.

The school was rank ~600.

I wouldn't go past this estimate.

I'd probably give the same thing.
