Not too sure about raw marks but check out my resources for French Continuers (currently 2). I'll be creating and uploading more when I have enough time.

I'm happy to help with French in case you need it :D

So this may be a stupid question, but I always thought that Band 6 in any subject is a HSC mark of 90+%. Is this correct or incorrect? Or is there a difference between the raw mark referred to here and the HSC subject mark?

There is a complicated process the marks go through and there are many guides here on BOS you can look up, but basically your raw mark gets 'moderated,' to a moderated mark. For example those that are getting a final mark of 90 in 4U didn't really get a 90% raw in 4U and actually got around 70s.

This is correct.

The raw mark is the mark you really get in an exam (i.e. before alignment). You don't receive your raw mark unless you order it from NESA.

op remember that raw marks internally dont mean much, its just your rank respective to your cohort that matters, as we cant tell the difficulty/cohort strength/rank of your schools assessments.
