No, only the first ranked person is definitely guaranteed the highest hsc mark as their mark (that's why for smarter people at lower ranked schools, its good to be first at everything, because then a poor performance from everryone else will not 'drag down' their mark.) Um, to answer your...

Only your final rank is important. The other separate ones aren't very helpful. You should find out what percentage of students from your school usually get band 6. All anyone will tell you here is 'of course you can, just ace externals'.

Wow, so much confusion about scaling... So here is a very simple foolproof way of understanding it (tell me if it needs clarifying) 1. Remember your final hsc mark is made up of 50% your external exam, this is how you go in the hsc exam which EVERYONE in the state does, marked with exact same...

Don't we just have to get a higher percentage of band 6s? I think most people could at least get low band 6 in english, but yeah last year were gun at english. Btw, do you know how many accelerated kids DIDN't get a band 6 last year? I swear i only know one. And she still got 89...

Umm, i'm not sure what you're asking, but i think most of your questions will be answered here http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/hsc-results/moderation.html But if you aren't bothered to read it: No, hsc marks are not a rank, they are a moderated (by bos) mark, and scaled (by uac). Yeah...

Past papers. That's all you'll need. Succcessones are good cos you can memorise answers. (& also write out some essay plans for english/ancient) Edit: Yeah, what he said ^

If you want to do commerce, I've been told that business studies is a really good foundation. Its also the easiest subject ever and the workload and study is literally nothing except memorising the terms of the syllabus (comes to around 4 a4 pages) and then its just a lot of common sense and...

Read successone specimen answers the night before.

I think its because relative to your other subjects, society and culture is perceived to be one of those things that are not really a subject. Like abo studies. Or whatever cafs is. (No offense) I reckon if you genuinely enjoy all your subjects and can manage your time well, then go for it...

Do you go to ruse

How do you know your cohort is the best when you haven't done the hsc yet? Maybe your school just set way too easy exams.... Do you go to cheltenham cost then obviously you'll get lots of state ranks. In about studies

I'm pretty sure he wouuld still get at lleast 3/4 marks if he proved it and had all the steps.. In thee half yeaarly I had no clue how to do the induction question, I wrote out steps 1 and 2 and stated what I was meant to prove in paart 3 (wthout actually proving it) and still got 2/3 markks.

Sooo......is OP trolling or not, what's the verdict

Well your final hsc mark is the average of your hsc external mark + your moderated internal mark. (Since each is worth 50%) So the guy who comes last internally will ALWAYS have the lowest internal mark. Even if he then does really well in the hsc external exam, and this is the top mark at his...

If you're in year 10, just spend year11 experimenting with what works best for you. Focus on maths (if you do it) & english, because the skills in year 11 you'll need for year 12. But everything else, all the content related subjects, you don't actually need anything you learn in year11 for...

I think that's why they make the Qs take time/thought so not just any person will apply, and they don't have to sift through tonnes of crappy applications, or waste time interviewing heaps of people. I'm pretty sure they use the marks you supply to judge whether you would be able to get 96...

Yepp, that's why its now impossible to get 100, because apparently its not possible to be better than 100% of the state, so instead you can only be better than 99.95%

ATAR is a rank of you compared to the rest of the state. So 95+ agar means you are better than 95% of the state. You can decide for yourself if that's difficult or not...

Judging from the standard of english in her posts, maybe she's a fob from china, so its normal to get stalked by the government.

Yeah our school has this policy. http://news.ninemsn.com.au/national/919716/teacher-student-facebook-contact-banned Not in nsw though... And yeah, we think our principal made this facebook account to stalk us, cos the person had like a few hundred students from my school as friends and no...
