Results are out? (3 Viewers)

[someth1ng]

It's funny, now that I've gotten my results, I'm wondering about my external scores...especially for Chemistry and Physics.

someth1ng you should go take a read of post 44331 in the p00n thread

Soon enough man, soon enough. At least you're not dying in anticipation haha.

While they are probably the bands as someth1ng said, i have a friend who insisted last year that her HSC marks in the sms had decimal points in them even after i told her they were probably the bands. I guess i'll never know since she didn't take a screenshot.

HSC marks are always given as whole numbers, rounded up. E.g. if your assessment mark is 91 and your exam mark is 94, the average of the two is 92.5 but your HSC mark is 93. So I doubt what she said is true. I think it could just be the BoS using a slightly different format to separate marks or something through the use of a "."

Yeah i know, if i remember correctly some of the subjects supposedly had a .9 which just makes no sense whatsoever. I really doubt it's true either, i'm thinking she might have gotten a little embarassed after being corrected and stuck to her story.

Ah wish I was faster. Oh well it is only three days- of not stressing over choices yet so no worries.

Someth1ng you happy with ur results? Let us all know on Wednesday to clarify if they did send youse the rIght marks...

Yes and no. I'm happy that I got 2 band 6s in science but I probably won't be happy that there's a big gap between my chemistry marks (most likely, at least).

It's weird.

Seeing as we are meant to get 3 sets of marks, and we only got one, people suspect that this is only a RAW or maybe SCALED exam mark.

It's highly unlikely that they would have actually sent out the final HSC marks before their specified date of December 19th.


So someth1ng, don't worry about it if you are disappointed, the marks in my text are lower than I expected. This is the same with my friends as well!

This is by no means an official notification of final HSC marks considering it would be any of three possible marks.

Here is a screen shot:

Hey louielouiee, Could you kindly list me your assessment ranks or rough estimates if you don't know, and your school rank! I just want to see why biology scaled so bad this year, It did look alot easier than pervious years, but that doesnt mean that the scaling should significantly drop. Your other results tell me that you're a high achiever, so getting an 83 in biology??? there is something wrong with the marking or the test was extremely easy. After reading this thread.. m really scared as I under performed heaps in biology
But your other results look good to me... congrats in Ancient History, Adv. English and Religion

 

[Sup3rDry]

Fucking not keen at all. This year is the worst year ever i swear. Please pray for me on Wednesday, hoping that my marks will hopefully land my ass into a course at uni.

 

[Riproot]

It has been closed, as I said.

English: 82
MX2: 81
Chemistry: 90
Physics: 93

only 90?!

What. The fuck. Happened?!

The SMS only ever contains the HSC Mark. It never contains the Assessment Mark or Exam Mark.

Totally true

This is what I got last year:

So looks legit.

maybe you and all of your friends are just arrogant
because you were clearly given your final subjects bands
sorry m8 those are your marks

yeah... Maybe you just thought you were better than you were (I marked your paper that time and srsly, the mark I gave you was probably better than what a HSC marker would give you. Ily <3 someth1ng)

Yes and no. I'm happy that I got 2 band 6s in science but I probably won't be happy that there's a big gap between my chemistry marks (most likely, at least).

babe, my gap in Chem was like 8, you'll be fine. Your ATAR will still be 95+

Ily a trilly

 

[soloooooo]

At the end of the day atar doesn't mean much. I assume your atar was over 90 Riproot, yet you are now failing and barely passing first year uni.

 

[ZombieApocalypse]

I'm scared


I've been waking up the past day or so leading up to marks with this anxiety...

Can any of you read?

The Board of Studies NSW has confirmed that text messages were sent in error this morning to around 160 students who lodged a request to receive their HSC results via SMS.

Students are advised that these messages DO NOT contain their final results.

A company contracted to provide this service has advised that these messages were sent as a result of a technical error.

The SMS registration service and the Board's Students Online website were temporarily suspended in order to resolve this problem. The problem has been resolved and the registration service has been restored.

Final and confirmed results will be released on Wednesday 19 December

 

[brent012]

Can any of you read?

It's been posted a few times and wasn't released until a few hours after it was discovered and eventually posted on this site. Despite what that says the general consensus on here is that the marks that were released were the actual results. If it's all handled by an external company i don't think BOS would be providing them with marks which are not final or have not been through the aligning or moderating process.

 

[Riproot]

Can any of you read?

yeah, but that article actually makes no fucking sense at all because why would they have incorrect marks lined up and ready to be sent out? It actually raises more questions than it answers and is just a propagandist ploy by BOS.

Thanks for that

For biology, I was ranked 9/31 with a school rank in the high 70's.
Although, as you can see, I'm more a bullshitting essay man as opposed to someone who can recall short, succinct answers.

That's why I have 3 band 6's in essay subjects, and 3 band 5's in subjects that require direct & logical answers.

So a mark in the low 80's was what I was expecting to be honest!

nws m8
I still can't believe it, surely with a rank of 9/31 and having a school rank in the high 70's, you should've got in the 90's...unless your whole class did bad?!
But 83 is still good, I bet its better than my mark
Anyways all the best in your future studies, btw what course are you planning to do now??
