    Does the hsc marks get scaled again for UAI??!

    I think I may have caused a bit of confusion. The HSC marks you receive are marks that fit performance bands that describe typically what a student knows, understand and can do. More information can be found here. http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/hsc/hsc_update_2002_03.html...

    is the BOS PIN same as the UAC PIN?

    No it's not. There is a separate UAC PIN that you are given when you applied to UAC.

    Does the hsc marks get scaled again for UAI??!

    The UAC uses raw HSC marks. The HSC mark already takes into account of the assessment mark.

    Does the hsc marks get scaled again for UAI??!

    Yes they are usually lower. Have a read of the technical arcana forum in the "Board reveals raw marks" thread to get an idea of the how much difference a raw mark can change after the aligning process.

    Does the hsc marks get scaled again for UAI??!

    The UAC uses the raw HSC mark, which is not publically available unless requested under the Freedom of Information Act. These raw marks are scaled by the UAC, and the aggregate of your best 10 units are taken and a UAI is created. The marks you received today are not used in the process...

    An 06er confuddled abt THE MARKS

    Currently, the VCE is extremely close to the HSC. The majority of procedures are almost identical. Though a lot of wording used is different.

    What to do when you receive your results

    Enter it as a mark out of 50. You only enter it as a mark out of 100 when you are doing Mathematics Extension 2.

    You and your UAI- Discussion

    Don't worry, a 9/100 would require a huge amount of effort into putting no effort to get that mark :) I'm sure you'll all be fine. Try and not think about it or at least find something to distract you with. Relax in the beach or something. The booklet was designed to help understand what...

    UAI Help?

    If person A and B studied the same subjects AND received the same HSC marks. Then their raw marks will also be equal. Meaning they will attain the same UAI. Remember that they use raw moderated school assessment marks.
