- PHYSICS
-MODERN HISTORY
-BIOLOGY

*marks of 60 include poor ranking!

An internal mark of 60 and an external mark of 85 will result in 73.
An internal mark of 60 and an external mark of 90 will result in 75.

Neither of which is a Band 5, so the answer to your question is no.

Unless you're referring to raw marks?

YES RAW MARKS... but would scaling put raw marks such as those..INTO A BAND 5 RANGE???

For your internal raw marks - it depends on how difficult the exam is. And also, what rank your school is.

An 85/90 raw in the HSC is the equivalent of a Band 6, so I'd say, yeah, it would be sufficient for a Band 5
