hey guys, i was wondering what my chances are for getting a mid 90s hsc mark for english advanced. i go to baulko, and my overall rank is 47/195 (86% mark overall), but my trial mark was 93.5/105. i lost a lot of marks on my mod b essay (15/20), but i'm improving that atm so going off my trial mark i believe i could get 96/105 in externals, as long as the exam setters don't troll everyone (snric better not pull some tricky shit on us )
the top overall mark in my grade was 97%, and my trial mark of 93.5/105 was ranked 30th in the grade if that helps. the average for the trial was 79%, but i think more than half the grade was over that (i.e. some ppl fucked up bad). i know a lot of baulko ppl (i.e. michaeljennings) have been going on about how bad our tail is, but considering that their internal marks would be a lot lower than everyone else's, that shouldn't affect the top marks that much, shouldn't it? cos moderation takes into account differences in marks right?
my aim is to get 94 hsc mark, though i know my internal will be lower than that.
does anyone know what the conversions were for 2010 and 2009? I know that around 82/105 gives a 90, and around 95/105 gives around a 96, but if you know all the conversions for band 6 marks that'd be much appreciated => i'd have something to aim for in the externals
and please don't say it changes every year... that advice kinda sucks, plus i figured the english aligning would probably be a bit more stable than other subjects.
