Another Question About the ATAR (1 Viewer)

Say if you go to a school that is ranked in the mid 400s, and you come first in a subject, how do they calculate your internal marks?
Or do they judge your final assessment mark based on how you did in your HSC exam marks?

They judge you by your HSC

 

[Recondit]

If you come first after all your in-school assessments (Done all 100%), then your internal HSC assessment mark will be the same mark as the highest external HSC exam mark achieved by your cohort. This mark is averaged with YOUR external HSC exam mark to give you your HSC mark.

But what if the same person who came first in all assessments, comes first in the externals? Will his external mark be his final HSC mark?
