HSC Results: BoS PIN UAI: UAC PIN At least, that's what I remember, that there is two different PINs for these results. Someone correct me if this isn't the case.

Wooz: Thanks, decided to get out of hibernation for a little while at least before going back to lurking :) UAI results are accessed on 9am Thursday morning by going to the Universities Admissions Centre website (click the hyperlink) and using either your UAC application number/HSC student...

To check your HSC marks tomorrow online, you'll need to go to either www.hscresults.nsw.edu.au or www.hsc-results.nsw.edu.au and use your student number and your PIN to check your results.

UAI comes out on Thursday. You get your HSC results tomorrow. You check the UAC site for your UAI, and you'll need the UAC pin you were mailed earlier in the year to access it.

Re: Top 20 in Course List The people mentioned on the page are those who just topped the state in the respective subject, you can still get above 90 in the subject without being mentioned on that page. I'm thinking that comment's made for the other pages. Congrats to all those who got state...

Umm, ok? I said that I got a 96 aligned HSC exam mark with that sort of mark range in the 2006 paper, which I sat and actually did the HSC exam for. No 97-98, just 96. The rest of that statement could also be clarified and cleaned up a lot further. However, I am willing to concede that the...

Hmm, I see what you mean, so unless you're part of the committee that determines these cutoffs, all I suppose you can do is speculate based on what you have gathered in terms of information. It is also good to bear in mind there that while that might have been a bad grade, Sefton is still a...

While I can certainly see your viewpoint on the matter, I'm just not sure that the mark cutoff would be brought down large enough so that equating a mid 50s raw mark would equate to a band E4. From what I know, I got around 75-77 in the 2006 exam and received an aligned mark of 48/50 and my...

While it does depend on the year and the difficulty of the paper being assessed, the general trend (that I have observed from the relatively small amount of raw mark data received from FOI requests and conversations with people about speculation of their raw marks and comparing it with their...

Good to hear :) Different is good in the case of these exam papers, it makes for an interesting paper and really does sort out the students doing the course and does well in seperating the different levels of understanding the students have. I'll have a look at it later regardless to see what...

The word to use here would be alignment, not scaling, if we are talking about the aligned HSC exam marks. But I suppose that the committee that determines the cut-offs for the various bands would probably have them set at a lower mark range than those for previous years to reflect the difficulty...

That's what I thought about the 2006 paper when I did it, but I suppose people aren't much used to the paper being too different from what they were used to. Hope you did alright in it :)

You wouldn't lose any marks at all for forgetting the student/school numbers at the top of the page, it is done so that if the pages somehow happen to be misplaced, fell or ripped apart from the booklet they were in, the markers would be able to mark the paper and attribute the marks to a...

Ahh, thanks for this, I'll have a look over it later and compare it with the 2006 paper which I sat for my HSC back when I was accelerating extension 1 maths, seeing as there's a lot of hubbub over the comparisions between the 2006 and 2008 tests.

Re: Distinction Courses: Interest and discussion on the proposed cancellation of cour They won't dismiss your application automatically if you don't attend the information day, the day is there to help those who are deciding between courses and to give some general information to those...

Top 1% of the state got 95+ last year, which is around 80 people. To get a state ranking in legal studies, you have to get into the top 10 students, and the top mark last year was 98. So it's reasonable to say you'll need to be getting at least 97 to have a chance of getting a state ranking in...

If you are ranked first, and do perform well in the external HSC exams, then I'm pretty sure that you would have a certain level of immunity from the rest of the students in the subjects that perform badly. Their performance should not affect your UAI, as long as you are ranked first internally...

I suppose any discrepancy/disadvantage that the 06 students had in the exam would be made up for by alignment, although that shouldn't really affect the ranks that the students had as such and thus the end result. Personally, I didn't find the 06 paper hard, but that was my opinion at the time...

I believe that what you've stumbled upon here is the draft syllabus for the extension 1 maths course for 2010 and beyond. All the maths courses are being revamped for 2010, so this particular draft syllabus would only hold for that year and beyond, so you don't have to worry about this in the...
