this calculator overestimates ur atar significantly just like any other calculator for hsc marks below 80 in english advanced.

the scaled mark (or atar equivalent) for same HSC marks should be the exact same between standard and advanced and studies.

this blind spot is because there’s no data below the 25th percentile for English advanced, so my model is pretty much just guessing below there.

a major update is coming soon which will address this and make major improvements to alignment and scaling modelling :)

yeah, it would be more accurate if you used the scaling data of english studies hsc marks between 0 to 60, standard for scaling data between 60 and 80 and advanced for 80 to 100 cause those are the values uac put in their annual report for those subjects so less guessing needed at otherwise extreme ranges for one subject

this is seriously such an impressive project, MASSIVE kudos...my only qualm is that it appears to be glazing me (ik what @coolcat6778 says about inaccuracy at low eng adv marks and I wonder, is there also inaccuracy at the higher ranges)

because no way my trial marks get me what I got (to be fair tho I did overperform significantly in 2 subjects but still)

higher ranges are fine because there is data available for those. the updated version will be using much better modelling but even then it won’t change estimates by a significant amount, your ATAR will still sit in a similar sort of range
