Shit, this test was hard, i lost like 8 marks so max 76/84. But i'm kind of confident that i got all other questions right, anyone know what 76/84 allign to? From raw mark is 90% but does it get scaled up heaps?

hey guys what would a raw mark of 23/84 align to?
I don't think anyone can get that low 23/84 is like Q1,Q2 , but I don't mean to offend anyone but if you cant do Q1-Q4 why are you even in 3unit. Not that I am annoyed but it is the fact that getting an e2 rank will bring your Atar down. But i hope you did well in 2unit =)

don't get cocky mate, even if you've lost 8 marks max, examiners could be shitcunts and point you out for reasoning, or perhaps silly mistakes etc. 76/84 would probably scale to 96.

i think '10 cutoff was also 56/84 (i don't think they vary greatly from year to year)

so it'll probably be around the same, maybe a bit lower considering a lot of people found it harder

guys, how does doing ext1 or ext2 affect your mark. because i failed extension 2 really bad and i'm expecting high 40s-low 50s for ext 1. can i get a band e3 with that?

The cut-off would still be lower - 2009 and 2010 were about the same difficulty and definately not as hard as this one.
