You're allowed to do poorly in Year 11 Advanced English. Under no circumstances drop to Standard.

Yeah, pretty much :p Too bad the vast majority of Standard students are lazy gits. /huge generalisation

Paper Two marks are indeed moderated against Paper One marks, but only to determine how marks in the Standard and Advanced English courses should be scaled. In theory these courses are subject to the same scaling. What happens (I think) is technically Standard English should perform as well...

koOl: Your argument centres around the strange and incorrect idea that, in order to have your marks suppressed, one must ring up the paper in question and tell them not to publish your mark. Actually, you don't have to talk to the paper at all. The papers get a list of High Achievers from the...

I go to a private, non-selective school. I'm aiming for 95+ and I think I can get there.

So in your essay you have to refer to specific areas of debate no matter whether they ask for them or not? e.g you'd write something like 'Two important areas of debate in the study of the Crusades are...' in your introduction, rather than just saying something like 'The crusades are a...

If the question doesn't ask you about specific debates in your case study (eg. the Independent School Trial paper, where the question just asked you to evaluate a quote by Henry Reynolds in the light of your case study) do you have to talk about specific debates? In other words, do I have to...

Re: How many bang 6 is needed for UAI 95+? The marks that you get depend on your ranking, but that's not what he's asking. He wants to know what HSC marks he needs to get 95+.

Crusades here. Ugh, so difficult to find resources on this thing...

These are all technically estimates but I'm sure most of them are accurate: Modern History: 1st/4 Extension History: =1st/3 Music 1: 2nd/9 Drama: Not sure, probably 4/18 Guess who has a really small cohort? :p

My bet is that you're not logged in. Log in and then try.

*sigh* Don't put your trial marks into SAM unless you're looking for an underestimate to make you work harder or something.

Moderated/aligned HSC marks.

Now THAT'S a title.

80% in an extension language course will probably turn into something much nicer after scaling and moderation, depending of course on your (and other's) performance in the external and your rank in your class...

If your ranking is last, and then you come first in the HSC exams, three things will happen: 1. The person ranked first in your class will get your exam mark as their moderated assessment mark 2. You will keep your exam mark as your exam mark 3. Your assessment mark will be moderated in line...

We need marks and proper ranks to give you any useful information.

Dunno about high 70's/low 80's (seems a bit conservative to me), but with those ranks it would be very easy to pull your overall mark up if you did well in the externals.

So how is this list different to/more useful than the table of scaling available on the main site? Cos I don't understand what you're trying to say at all, and if the general idea is only to give a rough indication of scaling for subjects, then the scaling table performs this function much...

No, no, no, no, no. CSP means that the Government actually PAYS a lot of your uni fees. You pay only a Student Contribution, the amount of which is capped according to your course (and I think is never over about $7,000 p.a) and you are allowed to defer payment of this via a HECS loan, which...
