    Mark of 97 in Ancient His.

    I'd say around top 300ish - although that's really just a rough guess, because UAC doesn't have the stats for someone with a direct 95/100, in their percentile margins - top 1% = 97/100, top 10% = 90/100! Hope that helped! :)

    project questions

    The strength of your question will depend on the strength of its link to historiography - remember guys, this is a 'history extension' course, not simply history! Even if you have to be explicit with it - for e.g. 'How have historiographical approaches changed with reference to...' - or...

    Mark of 97 in Ancient His.

    Top 1% - so, top 113 kids, maybe higher or lower, depending on your actual raw exam mark.

    Distinction course study

    Distinction courses will not take up as much of your time as other HSC courses might - but even so, it's still worth it (in terms of both personal enjoyment AND your UAI) - I achieved 95/100 this year in Software Design and Development - and it didn't even count towards my UAI - Philosophy did...

    Parthenai?

    Simple - fix it up with your teachers now - tell them this is what you found on websites / Macquarie Guide / (and if you can, look for another credible source i.e. book that says the same). That way, they'll either: a) End up agreeing with you, so if you ever use it in an exam - you can remind...

    How well did u go for first HSC assessments?

    My HSC Raw Mark wasn't 100. The mark I got was aligned by the Board of Studies to Board of Studies standards. For my 99/100 (Probably), they saw fit to give me a HSC mark of 100. 3 Other people got my same raw mark, whilst those 2 who came first probably scored full marks (raw) in their exam.

Leave it until the end and well - trust me, it will be the...
