I still think it's bullshit that we can't get our raw marks without paying $100+ (for 6 subjects). Like I understand the costs involved with mailing a bunch of booklets but even just an email with the marks would suffice omg cunts -.-

Ive always been curious, where can I buy the raw marks or papers back (when the results come back of course), and how much would it cost per paper? I thought they just emailed a pdf containing the scanned copies.

We should just collaborate with everyone and put our own book together... Take that BOSTES

That shows the costs of the raw marks but you need to pay for a results check for each subject you want the marks for which is more expensive. Have a click around and you'll get an idea of the costs, dates, process, etc.

EDIT: When we get our results in December, all we get is our aligned/moderated internal marks, exam marks and overall HSC marks.

It says:

Cost:
$5.75 per course, plus the cost of a results check if this has not already been ordered.

Not sure how that surmounts to $100+ if people are doing 5-6 subjects, unless you referring to the extra costs that come with getting your papers checked, then I guess that makes sense. Also they charge 35c a minute if you have any queries, wtf!

If you want the exam paper back or a your raw marks, they force you to get a results check for $15 before paying for the exam paper ($35 or something) and the raw marks ($6 or so). So if you want your raws back, you have to pay a minimum of $21 iirc

Yeah so raw marks are a couple bucks per subject but before that you need to pay for a results check as Librah just said which is around $15 each subject, but $30 for english. It's so stupid.

Can they TAKE AWAY marks if you get a results check? Like if they recheck and see that the previous marker accidentally added up the marks to give you 90 instead of 80, will they change it down to 80?

No, they can only give marks not take away.

No joke is there actually any non asian kids in ruse ? Are they considered the school retard :L?

We beat Ruse at da vinci decathlon last year and there was a Caucasian girl on their table.

Maybe that's why they lost???

And the HSC is officially DONE for me. WooooooooOOOooOOOoo

Studies of Religion was my last exam after an absolute fuckery of a timetable. This will probably mark one of my last posts on this site (at least I think it will), so just wanted to thank everyone for the banter and support throughout the last year/two years. Time has flown by so fast, and although I really crashed in terms of motivation and grades, the future's shaping up to be pretty good.

Congrats both of you!

Does anyone else instantly lose respect for people that do general maths?

I was having a conversation at a party last night with some guy who had just finished his HSC. He said he studied 24/7 but he managed to get good ranks in his cohort and was 1st in maths, I was pretty impressed and I asked him what he thought of the maths ext2 exam. He told me he did general maths. At this point I was trying my hardest not to burst out laughing but then I realized it's not his fault he's dumb it's probably just his poor genes, I guess not everyone can be blessed like me. I asked him why he did general maths and he said that he was doing 2U but found it too hard so he dropped down to general. I started laughing but managed to pretend like I was coughing and went to get a drink of water, I doubt he was smart enough to even notice. Avoided him for the rest of the night.

Considering I did 0 units of maths for the past two years and am perfectly confident I will achieve more than enough to get into my course and be on my way to my dream job.... erm no.

I don't get it, why should I lose respect for people doing general maths, you haven't explained your perspective.

As a James Ruse student who studied Extension 2 Mathematics and enjoyed the exam, I would not lose respect at all for this person just because he did General Mathematics...
