Is it possible for a person ranked 2nd internally to get a higher HSC mark? (1 Viewer)

Yes - particularly if there isn't a lot between first and last (2 student classes come to mind as an obvious case where this can happen - and I have had it happen). Just means that last ranked worked harder in preparation for the exam than 1st ranked. What can't happen is for last ranked to get a better internal mark than the first ranked student.

Yeah this.
