Hmmmm just because they give out perfect scores doesn't mean they are keen it depends from student to student and teacher to teacher. The perfect score is a reflect that the assessment was the fantastic and that it meets the marking criteria.

Ha, that's exactly like my legal studies teacher, he never gives out full marks, even though we follow the marking criteria. Stingy bastard.

Agreed. i've done assessments where I've met the criteria, and even done more sometimes and gotten like half a mark off for nothing.

Thank you for the compliment but I do detect a mild tone of contempt there. Haha. :p It was a fairly easy assessment, but if it means anything, the minimum result was 1/30 and there were quite a handful of single digit marks dealt out.

I do agree though that full marks shouldn't be given out so easily. My Ext-2 Maths teacher is particularly stingy with marks and was very disappointed at one stage that everyone in the class got over 50% for the last assessment.

We have Legal Studies teachers who just want to give us the marks... if you include everything, you get the marks right there. It's good... but in some ways it's bad, it makes it hard to differentiate. But still...

Then in other subjects, like someone just said, you fulfill all requirements, in every aspect, yet it's like the marker is trying to take a mark away from you... I think some teachers definitely have a bias against giving full marks.

It's sad that we get marked harshly, sometimes I think that I could go so much better in my HSC if they decided not to mark us harshly, but mark us a little better and keep the ranks.

I think that certain subjects are much more prone than others to be affected by the subjective bias of teachers. The maths and science subjects tend to be much more objective with very clear cut marking criteria and no grey region between right and wrong.

A friend of mine, who was dux of Adv and Ext-1 Eng in Yr 11 and ranked 1st after the first Adv HSC assessment, had a discussion today with the marking teacher over a few lost marks in the recent Adv assessment and was told that if marks were deducted, then she had obviously failed to meet the criteria. Surprisingly though, after the teacher reread the essay and ticked over all the criteria there ever existed, her reasoning for the deducted marks were that "Although you met the all the criteria for full marks, clearly other people had written beyond outstanding essays".

At our school two people handed in the same essay or whatever type of text it was, and the teachers didnt pick up on it, and when they got it back there was 4 or 6 marks difference between them.. BOS is retarded for making us do english.
