When they are working out your ENTER, they take the english and the top 3 subjects to work it out. Do they take the top 3 subjects before or after scaling?

Does that make sense or do i need an actual example? lol

It's after scaling.  :)

Play around with my ENTER calculator if you like (http://entercalc.us.to/), it will make this clear. :D

It is after scaling.

This is because different subjects scale differently. A 45 in Methods would give around 48(varies from year to year) whereas the same score would give 53 in Spec or 55 in Latin.
