    Question about cohorts and marks

    Scaling has nothing to do with your school. I think you mean the process of moderation. TBH moderation should not really affect your mark. Going to a higher ranked school gives you a bit of cushion to fall on but thats about it. People who say they only did shit because they go to a shitty...

    Lower ATAR than examination mark?

    I think you have confused aligning with scaling. When marks are aligned they have nothing to do with other subjects. Board of studies looks at the performance of the cohort and the learning outcomes to determine the raw mark for each band. Scaling on the other hand is used by the UAC in a...

    Dropping Maths in Year 12? Wise decision?

    Drop maths. If it is gen maths however definetelyyy drop it. You will not be bothered to keep up with it and its a hard subject to do if you are not motivated. Keep EXT Hist.

    Lower ATAR than examination mark?

    This whole thing is subjective. if the exam is really easy or your cohort does well regardless of the subject, then it will align downwards. If its really hard than it will align up. Theres only like 1 or 2 subjects that generally scale up. Accounting scales quite well. They make the tests...

    HSC SCALING. Anyone know what happens if you only have 3 ppl in class?

    Scaling will still affect you if you were the only one in the class. It is based on your scores only and is independent of other people in your class. Ranking-wise, just do well and you should be fine! In a small class with such a wide spread of marks it shouldnt affect you at all

    What kind of marks would I need to get an ATAR of 98+?

    Once you get the required ATAR, they use your performance in the interview and umat to decide. So basically if you get 93/95(depending on where you live) you ATAR does not matter any more. I remember having this convo with my friend ages ago. Anyway I found UWS med site and it says: 'Applicants...

    What kind of marks would I need to get an ATAR of 98+?

    You wont make it into USYD/UNSW with 98 UWS had a cutoff of like 95 though, 93 if you live in the area. You didnt choose the best subjects scaling wise so you have to do super well to get over 98. Also if you're doing 14 units, you should probably drop one or two subjects, ideally gen maths...

    Accounting Questions

    1. Accounting is piss easy. If you have common sense and can add or subtract, you should be fine. Year 11 is the harder part and worth 70% of your whole HSC. During this time, I studied a week before exams Year 12 is basically open book for everything. I didnt touch exercises before going into...

    Is a band 6 (90+) in the HSC a raw or aligned mark?

    When we get results from board of studies, they're aligned However UAC scales them to a common scale of 50 So yes 85 in mx2> 90 in standard eng Try playing around with this: http://www.hscatarcalculator.com.au/ You can compare the scaled mark/aligned mark for diff subjects

    USYD B Eco v.s MAQ B Com-Prof Accntg + B Appd Finance

    Sound like your in a bit of dilemma! Its seems that in you prefer Macq. However It really depends on what you would like to do after uni. If you want to go into investment banking or any type of front office finance related role, go with USYD. The finance industry is generally elitists who place...

    Belonging creative

    Rip stuff off other people. LOL I know that seems lazy but its so much easier to find inspiration from other stories that already work and then redo it in your own way. Our teacher gave us the SMH Short Story Competition winner to check out what good stories look like and i basically used that...
