Nah, it was 2nd. LOL IF ONLY I COULD GET THAT... STUPID PAPER 2 LOL. Yeah, your school is kinda weird. But if you get a state rank for subjects like bio, chem etc, usually (USUALLY) the aggregate contribution would stay the same. So since she got a state rank for bio, her aggregate for bio...

I don't think they use linear scales, because it's commonly accepted that it's kinda exponential i.e. the higher you go the harder it is to get into the next increment. I.e. there's kinda a big difference between 99.95 and 100, and that shows in the aggregate. But I don't know. Kinda unsure as...

Yeah but if you get state ranks for some subjects it can "compensate" for the slightly lower contributions your other subjects may make to your aggregate. For example, I know a person who got 99.95 Advanced 99/100 Extension 48/50 Extension II 47/50 Maths 95/100 3U 47/50 Biology 95/100...

Was playing around with SAM and Einstein... For 100 it's usually 484-485 For 99.95 it's usually 475ish-484 Etcetera. :S And yes, you needed a slightly higher aggregate last year to get the 100. I remember a girl, sssglain, she got: 3U: 99 4U: 98 Chem: 98 Bio: 96 English: 93...

Good idea. If you screw up any subjects in year 11, just sit them again for year 12. ;)

But they should have state ranks already. They've been decided (presumably), as it's less than a week to our results. Why not get it done soon, seeing as many people aren't available on weekends.

Last year, state ranks were released on the same day as results day.

Re: So Soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lawwwwwwwl. How random.

Re: So Soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good luck with the potential first-in-the-state honours dp624! WAIT, omg, I just figured out who you are... you know S. La from my school don't you? Your username here are your initials, aren't they! My little cousin topped state/country in a competition... and you...

Still, I'd rather get a piece of paper than nothing. o_0

Do you do advanced, Namu?

Damn. I was lucky enough to have some pretty good teachers in year 12; they made learning a lot easier.

I could tutor you for 2U. ^^ haha

Re: What's Yr 12 Modern like? The most wonderful subject in all of HSC.

Do you enjoy playing the devil's advocate or do you honestly believe what you're saying? Let's compare. A teacher will typically teach you 3-4 hours a week for each two unit subject. To reiterate my point, 3-4 hours a week. Most tutors will not be available to tutor you for 3-4 hours a week...

I thought you lived in Asquith, but meh, close enough. When I was going to the UNCLE med interview, the distance from Strathfield to Hornsby was surprisingly long.

I'm sure I'd trade it all in for a good UAI. :P

Iono, can't remember. I think Lana topped extension, and Tanya came fourth in the equivalent of advanced English now.

I guess the pieces of paper for topping the subjects... the UNSW scholarship worth $4000. Second premier's award (highest on the school merit system)... um, there's also a literacy award worth $200 that I might get, and then there are the special prizes given by the principal at the end. I may...
