looking quite good to me, you should shit on 80 if you keep that up. 90+, around the mid ninety mark.

UNCLE does not use the bell curve.

yeah, I saw it. Saw it around 11am, didn't look like it was going to be put out anytime soon, so I didn't hang around to watch as I had a presentation to prepare for. The trees seemed to be in the way of getting the water up, but they only had one hose on it when I was there, with a few...

If you reckon you can and still have time to fit other things into your life: school, socialising, etc.

mixed signals? *shrugs*

that is harrasment if you really want to pursue it. Harrasment only has to be unwelcome and occur once, not twice. what's the bet something ends up happening you you and him? :D if his rep is anything to go by, maye he singled you out for that reason. ;)

what did he say?

The scaling varies from year to year, the scaling this year (like every year) will depend on how well the course canditature does in biology and other subjects they are studying for their HSC.

There is no 'capping' of subjects, the possible score that a student can attain in any subject is 100 - but to do so, a student must fufil the requirements. I think you may be confused with scaling however, which is determined by the course canditature and naturally varies from year to year...

Will depend on how well the students in front of your mate do. If they peform at high 90 UAI level and he does as well in the exam, then it's possible... but, is it likely? Probably not, unless it's one of the better peforming schools in the HSC.

Yeah, it's true extra UAI points can be granted. Particularly through EAS (Educational Access Scheme). I don't know how many points rural students receive. Newcastle Uni was 4 points for local students, but I don't know anymore.

Yeap.

I know of some incredibly stupid/lazy people who ended up with 50s and 60s for their HSC marks when there is no way they would have come anywhere near passing exams. I got the impression if a student makes an effort in the exam, they'll end up with a mark > 50.

Nobody knows for certain, they can only guess. The cut offs are determined by the number of places available. They originally set it at 100, then move it down until they fill up x places, which then becomes the cut off. At a guess, most likely higher than what it was this year (2004), as...

A decent mark is still more than possible if you're aiming for a UAI around the 90 mark or below...

And you topped the state in 3u & 4u maths?

I thought it was more junior science.

All subjects 'scale down', the better subjects just not as much as other subjects. However, a high band 5 to band 6 means you probably have a decent scaled mark for the subjects you listed above.

No one can really guess aligned marks. They vary from year to year with the board and there seems to be no consistency. Being in the upper ranks for your school will result in good moderated asessment marks, leaving the exam mark (up to you) to achieve a good HSC mark. It also gives you space...
