guys i forgot but how does the performance of your schools cohort affect your scaling? does it affect both internal and ext?

yeah im curious about this too - it might be mostly external? but not sure

A girl in my class who is ranked 1st internally in Maths Advanced got moved to a separate room today because she was coughing a lot. I heard that she apparently left the exam halfway because she was too sick to continue and didn't end up finishing. How will her performance affect my mark (btw I'm ranked 3rd out of 7)? My school is ranked in the 500's and we haven't got a single band 6 in Maths Advanced for the past 2-3 years. Will she end up dragging everyone down?

However, on the flip side, can she get a band 6 from just her "internal marks" (which will obviously be high - I'm guessing around 70 to 80 - because my school sets easy tests) despite her half-assed attempt on the maths exam?

If your peer was unable to continue her HSC exam due to illness, whether her Examination Mark will be used as part of the moderation process depends on whether she ends up submitting an illness/misadventure application and if so, whether it is upheld. NESA excludes, from the moderation process, students with an upheld illness/misadventure application and an Examination Mark lower than expected given their performance in the school assessment. Even if she does not submit an illness/misadventure application, her Examination Mark can still be excluded from the moderation process if it is much lower than expected given her internal performance, which will likely be the case if she did not finish her HSC exam.

The answer to your other question also depends on whether she submits an illness/misadventure application (and her application is upheld). If upheld, her Examination Mark would be either made equal to her moderated Assessment Mark, or it would be her actual Examination Mark, whichever is higher. Given that she is ranked first, it is more likely that the former will apply (especially since she did not finish her HSC exam). In such a case, her overall HSC mark would essentially be made equal to the highest Examination Mark achieved in your cohort, and her chances of an overall HSC mark in the band 6 range would solely depend on that highest Examination Mark.

Thanks for providing clarification. I'm relieved to hear that her performance won't affect everyone else in the class.

why sad reaction to hope @bcv

 

[kizmalah11]

Hey guys, I sat the math advanced paper yesterday and after looking over the answers, predict I got around 75-80. Any thoughts on what this will scale to my exam mark.

all hope is lost in the postmodern capitalist hellscape we live in.

So outside of my misery, I think I'll find
A way of envisioning a better life
For the rest of us, the rest of us
There's hope for the rest of us, the rest of us
