Can i still get an Atar of 60?

I am starting to get really stressed out, i haven't been able to stop thinking about this for a while.
I averaged about 50% for all my SACS and am aiming for an atar of 60.

i'm wondering if it is still possible to achieve an atar of 60 if study really hard for exams which are coming up soon
what percentages am i looking at roughly?

I do Further Math, Viscom, Japanese(SL), English and Studio arts

Thanks in advance :)

If you are able to do well on your exams,  it is possible.

I would recommend that you now focus on doing the best that you can to get to the scores you want;  at least this way you will know you have tried and not be thinking "what if"

It isn't impossible, but isn't easy either. You are going to really have to put in a lot of work & time into it.
I mean the fact that you have 2 folio subjects, a foreign language and a scale down subject doesn't make this easy coupled with the 50% average on SACS.
I'm not discouraging you at all on trying to get an ATAR of 60, just forewarning that you have a lot of work to do.

As miniturtle has stated, focus on doing the best you can, don't worry or go "I should have" done better on SACS and all of those thoughts. Focus on the here and now, you want to get an ATAR 60. So work out a plan and if you need help on that ask the relevant forums here for help and/or ask your teachers as well.

Yes definitely, but you need to work really hard from now on. I have a friend, he's graduated now, but he was averaging Ds in all SACs. Because of this he really fucked his ranking and ended up in the bottom quartile of all his subjects. This wasn't a selective school situation either he messed up his SACs and ranking in your local slightly below average public school. Over the exam period I saw him work extremely hard and it was only through this hard work that he was able to ace his exams and get a 90.1 atar. Your goal of a 60 atar is definitely achievable if you start working hard N O W. Ok now good luck dude all the best
