O.k I don't really get this HSC scaling thing so can i ask a few questions???Thanks.

O.k lets say for example I get 10% in all my subjects and I come first.
And everyone else gets 5%.

Then the HSC comes and I get 100% while everyone get 80%-90%.
Do I Get 100% for my HSC or 90's,80's or whatever????

Thanks In Advance =]

If you can only achieve 10% internally - I highly doubt that you'll acquire a 100 in the externals.

You'd get 100. Although if you actually did do that, I think the Board might pick up on it and wonder if there's something going on. :p

Yes.

It's really simple.

The person ranked first internally, gets the highest external mark for his internal mark and his own external mark. So if you got 10% in your internal exams but you're ranked 1st and get 100 externally, you get a score of 100 for both internally and externally.

I'd be worried as fuck if there was a school whose max mark was 10% internally
