Will I be able to have a high ATAR (e.g., 95+) with these low scaling subjects?

I am in year 11, and I do:
Biology
Society and Culture
Community and Family Studies
Maths adv
Eng adv
Eng ext

I'm a bit anxious because I know ATAR scores also depend on the cohort but my classmates are, in the nicest way possible, unmotivated and don't bother well so that may drag my score down..?

I also do SLR as my 1 unit, but I need to drop that next year, which leads me to my next question: Is it worth it to keep English extension or maybe even move up to 4 units? And/or should I try Science extension? Thanks!

jxnde the scaling changes each year, just do as best as you can and you'll do well 🙂

You should also try to to the hardest subject eg(spesh mat) for the subject that u are good in. U shud try to do a language aswell.
