Band 6 cutoff? (2 Viewers)

[goofgafflaugh123]

What do you think the band 6 cut off will be this year? It was harder than the 2014/2015 paper, would you say it was harder or around the same as 2013? (2013 a raw mark of 76 scaled to 90)

 

[RyanT7]

Probably around 82

82!! Hopefully it is, i think i got anywhere between 75-88 but you can never be sure.

Fuck me that paper tore me a large hole

 

[pikachu975]

That was pretty hard but I accidentally got period of tan3x wrong gg

 

[Esse]

Pretty sure it should be around 82~. Anyone predict what a 90 raw will scale to?

 

[goofgafflaugh123]

Im guessing band 6 cut off will be 78 and band 5 will be 65

If its 78

Honestly guys that paper was easier than the previous 5 years tbh so i would say the band 6 cutoff would be higher

93-95

Edit : People need to take into consideration that although these exams may have been more difficult compared to previous years ( General consensus ), it still is hard to predict the cut off due to the introduction of the reference sheet. Due to the reference sheet, the cut off for a band 6 might be higher than you may expect. Hopefully that isn't the case

 

[gstaah]

I would agree with Ryan

 

[Esse]

Lol true, but doubt it

 

[zachary99]

was definitely not as hard as the 2013 paper! Overall it wasnt actually that bad so i reckon itd be about 83-84

What do you guys think a 95-97 raw would go to

 

[RyanT7]

What do you guys think a 95-97 raw would go to

95 > 96/97
96 > 97/98
97 > 98/99

The paper wasn't that bad in comparison to what I've done (obviously I would have made mistakes here and there due to clumsiness & actually having no idea), especially Q 15/16. I have done past papers that tore me a gaping asshole with its Q16 (and/or 15). I don't feel good about what might make it a Band 6.

Yeah around 96-99, doesnt scale that great when you get that good ;p
