What happens if someone gets ranked poorly, and say they come 35/40 for all there subjects (example) and the internal mark for the person ranked 35th is 50%, then they ace all there externals and get 90% for all there subjects. Would thier UAI be 60 becuase thats the average of 50 and 90, or will there external mark have a effect on there ranking/internal mark?

if you are ranked low at school, but then do better than others in the externals, then this will disadvantage your internal marks, by how much is determined by how everyone at your school goes in that subject.

So this will give me a bad internal mark?

You keep your external mark but you essentially get the # highest mark in your cohort according to your # rank for your internals.

Doing well in externals never hurts, it can only benefit you.

That is nonsense, doing well in externals is ALWAYS good for yourself. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
