How the estimate works

The tool checks English and Mathematics Extension prerequisites and the core NSW ATAR eligibility rules.
02
Select the best 10 units
At least 2 units of English are included first, followed by the highest remaining contributions.
03
Estimate your ATAR
The aggregate is mapped to a planning estimate. Actual scaling changes from year to year.
