This chart shows some HSC subjects that on average add more value to a student's ATAR and some other HSC subjects which on average add less value.
\nIt also shows the HSC subjects that students from more advantaged socio-economic backgrounds are more likely to study, and the HSC subjects that students from less advantaged socio-economic backgrounds are more likely to study.
