Ello!
What raw marks do I need inorder to obtain a band 6 in the following subs?
- advanced English
- general maths
- business studies
- economics
- biology

And.. I heard that if u get 85 for maths gen, it gets scaled to 90 or something ? Can anyone give me an estimate on how well theses subs scale ?

Thank you :)

ADV English: 77/100
Business Studies: 81/100
Economics: 84/100
Biology: 79/100
General maths isn't listed.

Surely that doesn't mean that the FINAL HSC mark you get for say, 84/100 in Economics, gets pushed up to 90?

Keep getting confused by this stuff lmao.

Last year economics barely aligned, fairly sure the band 6 cut-off was like 89.

yea, i was seriously doubted that 77-82 range. fairly sure it doesnt align better than adv. english, where the cut-off is around mid 80s.

Also, can u delete some inbox, i cant post vistor msgs cause this account is new. my obliv doesnt get unbanned till friday.

Anyone know the cut offs for chemistry?

I average about 80% when I do past papers, hoping for a B6.
