Hey guys,
I'm doing my trials soon, my school uses the Catholic (CSSA) trial papers and because of actual HSC test aligning/scaling etc... i was wondering what marks in my trials (say 80%) would represnt potential to achieve an actual band 6 in HSC?
My subjects are business studies, legal studies, english adv, studies of religion 2 and general maths.
Thanks

English Advanced, depending on the difficulty, you'd need about 82ish/105 for a Band 6. If it's really difficult, you could get away with a Band 6 with 75/105. If it's really easy, you'd need 85+/105.

The rest of your subjects, I never did so I have no idea.

For business studies, you'd be looking at about 82-83/100 for a band 6 (90). :)

Are you basing this off actual raw HSC marks, or are they educated guesses?

Also, OP: it's very difficult to align the marks from your trials to your final HSC marks as that would entirely depend on how they mark at your school and the quality of your cohort. It's somewhat possible to link raw HSC marks to your final HSC mark, as Aerath did above. Check out a few of the raw marks threads.

Bit of both. The only raw HSC marks I knew were 2009 (my year's). So going by those, and my educated perceived guesses of its difficulty versus other year's.
