is the big gap between students also count?
For example, if you 90+ each assessment, and you rank first in a subject (such as Physics), and the next person ranked second at around 70+, there will obviously be a difference overall.

Assuming they continue to perform at the same level, that person who tops the exam as well with a 90+ will average out very well. Though, if that person ranked second scores the second highest exam mark also with a 70+ mark, their average will obviously be significantly less than the person ranked first.

Too many variables though, it mainly affects you if there are large gaps in lower ranked schools.

Mine are correct.

Can 2 people have the same rank? I.e. can 2 people be 1/100?

then what happen when they allocate HSC exam mark according to the ranking?
Err what they deserve. So the first ranked will get the highest external mark as their internal mark and then the remaining people will get allocated marks according to their difference in marks between ranks.

Based on my experience of having equal firsts they average the top two exam marks and allocate that average as the first moderated exam mark

e.g. internal firsts = 95

external first = 96 and second 90

moderated assessment mark is 93 for 1st places.

There is a mistake on mine :pain: so now i have to go back to school to get it changed. It's only one rank that they got it wrong by but i'd rather have the right rank if it means an extra mark

I see. That is interesting but not exactly fair for the person who got 1st and then 96 for externals. But I guess he should've performed better in internals then :hammer:.

HEy

anyone could help me...

in my mayths ext 1...

i do exrt 2 so my total mark is out of 100

i got 85/100

BUT this other person got close to me but overal i stil beat him and he doesnt do ext 2 so his marked out of 50.

Wel the issue is his mark gets rounded up to 43/50 (where if mine was out of 50 i would be rounded too)

overall my maerks r stil higher

but this rounding off really disadvantaged me?

i called the school today about it cause im ranked 4th instead of 3rd becuase of it..

the school saying they cant do much about it... as they just send the mark in to the BOs.. etc ... so im a bit lost

any suggestion wat i could do?

Both would get 96 for their assessment mark. If the relative difference is that much, and maintained, the 2nd person gets 95.99 - rounded to 96. Of course, you wouldn't have fractions that small.

What is the total mark? 100? If so, not big at all.
