    Am I screwed for my ATAR with these English marks?

    If you do end up last in your grade, then your internal mark will be adjusted to equal the lowest exam mark of your cohort (or thereabouts). This process accounts for outliers. If you do end up coming last, you need to realise that you probably won't get 92/100 because you haven't demonstrated...

    Ranks - Thoughts?

    Your ranks aren't nearly as important as actually understanding the content. What good is being top 5 if you and the rest of your cohort don't understand much? Best thing is to do past papers, even now (when the term starts - best to relax during your breaks). If you can't manage your way...

    If you completed a B. Adv Science, what more do you need to do to be an Engineer

    At UNSW, yes, the great majority of students will have completed Honours as that is a key indicator for your higher research capabilities. What is probably more important than the university reputation is your area of research and your supervisor. Think end game. If you want to primarily teach...

    UNSW - WAM for double degrees...?

    If you drop, your WAM at the time you were doing Adv Sci / CS will still be shown wherever reported. A new line item will show your updated WAM after you have transferred to Adv Sci. Any CS courses will still show and still be calculated in your WAM.

    UNSW - WAM for double degrees...?

    The WAM that is calculated is irrespective of your degree(s). It's simply the weighted average of all your course marks. Therefore you will only see one total WAM wherever it's reported. Your WAM is printed on a downloadable transcript, however, it is not printed on your official transcript...

    help with timetable

    ENGG1000 is clashing with itself. Exact same thing happened to me 7 years ago, nothing to worry about.

    long time no post :)

    All marks have some effect on your ATAR, whether big or small. What's happened has happened - you are best now to identify how to improve, work on that, and increase your marks for your next assessment/exam. Remember your marks determine your ranks, not the other way around. You need to get...

    Raw marks report

    The majority of marks here were from a raw marks report: https://rawmarks.info/ You'll find old threads here with people posting their raw marks. Results check is a clerical check to ensure all marks are accounted for and properly processed. There have been instances where marks were amended...

    raw marks 2018

    The majority of marks here were from students who purchased their marks: https://rawmarks.info/ It's something that's nice to know, but it won't be something you regret if you don't.

    How definite are atar cutoffs for degrees?

    If the uni says this is the guaranteed entry mark, then yes. Otherwise, it is purely on supply and demand. Published cutoffs are typically of the year before. It can also be inflated for basically advertising purposes, but the actual number of students granted a position could bring the actual...

    2018 HSC+ATAR results discussion Thread

    Alignment affects both the exam and assessment mark. This can be only 2 things - either you were marked incorrectly, or you genuinely got those marks for the exam.

    2018 HSC+ATAR results discussion Thread

    No such thing. ATAR Calculators use data from previous years and since scaling is carried out afresh each and every year, the estimate from a calculator will be completely mutually exclusive from your year. The most accurate is patience. It's only a couple of days.

    HSC Mark Alignment?

    There are some subjects where there are different option topics. NESA will perform option scaling to ensure the different topics can be fairly compared to each other. The raw marks report will have your list of questions and the mark you gained. When added, this may be higher or lower than your...

    Requirements for a state rank

    This question doesn't make sense. A rank is not calculated. It's simply an order. You do better than someone else, your rank is higher. You do better than everyone in the state, you come first. At no point is it being calculated. Your final HSC mark is the mark that is used to determine your...

    dodgy internal ranks - four first places????

    Nothing you have said is true. Everyone can be ranked first in a course. If so, the teacher is absolutely not obliged to modify marks. The difference in internal marks is extremely important. Your rank is merely a description, not an analytical measure of your performance. It simply tells you...

    do i need maths extension 1 for a degree in commerce/comp.science at unsw/usyd?

    USYD has introduced prerequisites for technical degrees. B4 in Mathematics or E3 in MX1 or MX2 are required for entry into those degrees from 2019 onwards.

    HSC engineering studies 2014 MC Q10 solution?

    The neutral axis runs through the section of the bracket that experiences no stress or strain through its plane, hence you can use that to work out the length of the sheet metal required. It's simply the average of the 12.5 and 20.5 radii, which is 16.5. The radius of 30 is already given.
