Alright first off lets get things sorted out.

I go to Greystanes High (Rank 466, ergh)

Subjects - Adjusted Exam Mark - Rank - Estimated HSC Mark

Adv English - 46% - 20/25 - 50%

Business Studies - 79% - 3/31 - 80%

Engineering Studies - 80% - 1/9 - 85%

Extension 1 Maths - 76% - 1/3 - 75%

Information Processes and Technology - 95% - 2/22 - 95%

Mathematics - 78% - 2/15 - 80%

Physics - 81% - 1/8 - 85%

Ok now, I'll say it outright...I suck at english...terribly. But I wasn't able to drop it (not enough spaces?) and its too late now. All I want to know is an approximate ATAR and how badly english will affect it...

Don't know what to say..
Not much encouragement, except..

Trials are generally harder than the hsc.

And now you know where you were wrong, or you got feedback on how and what to improve, just try your best.
If it's not good enough, well screw whoever says it isn't good enough :)

This is it. The last time you will have to deal with this. Go for your life.

It's compulsory... but hey best of luck and im sure you'll go much better than trials, as you would have used the feedback you received, and im sure your much more prepared :)

best of luck.

We got smashed by marking in trial aswell. We all got around 50-60% range.
Don't sweat it just do your best. THey will mark you more leniantly.

Yeah, you'll do fine if you just work on the feedback you've received from the Trials.
