Hey,
It's pretty difficult to judge based on school marks alone; half of your HSC mark is based on your final HSC exam. It's also really difficult to judge, because of how strict/lenient your school marks, so these estimates need to taken with a grain of salt :)

But overall, these look to be pretty solid marks; push further than what your school gives you, and keep doing what you're doing because they work well for you. If all goes well, you might be pushing for a 95-96, and maybe even a 97 (but that's solely up to how well YOU do in the final HSC as you're mainly counting on yourself if you're first).
