Raw mark for E4 (1 Viewer)

[serena123]

What would be the approximate mark out of 120 required for E4 on ext 2 maths paper?

 

[annabackwards]

It's around 80% raw, so ~96/120

EDIT:
75/120 = rough cut off for E4
~96/120 = high E4 AKA mid band 6

Really? I thought it depended on the state performance.

96? I always thought it was around 75~
I mean, according to raw marks from previous years, the band E4 cutoff for 3u was around 70%
Now, since the tests don't range in difficulty too much, it's safe to assume that this year's band cutoff will be similar
I think you'd agree with me that 4u is infinitesimally harder than 3u, yes? So maybe the band E4 cutoff for 4u is 65% (that's still a very generous approximation imo)
If it was 65%, then the cutoff would be 78/120
So if you were to get 80/120, then you'd be guaranteed to get a band E4 not a guarantee
Don't forget that the band cutoffs fluctuate from year to year

@ jchoi: HSC mark is not relative, that is to say technically the entire state can get a band E4 provided they got the marks.

I disagree with Anna.
Of course it varies from year to year, but 96 is still way too high.

If you got 96 I wear you'd be looking at 96 final HSC Mark. I'd reckon ~75 is a band 6. If you get 90 you're definitely mid Band 6.

Oh sorry, I should not be up that late doing work lolololololol

96/120 = mid band 6 which i'm aiming for and put instead of what the OP was asking for. I guess i'm thinking too much about it >.>

75/120 = low E4, as the other have said XD

 

[Aerath]

Hahaha, yeah, that's more like it.

 

[zeleboy]

Can I tag on and ask

What raw mark needed for 85?

 

[kwokie]

I hear 85-90/120 is e4 for ext 2. Thats what my teachers and my friends from previous years said. my friend who did ext 2 last year reckons he got about 90/120 and got 92 HSC mark.

But my cousin who did it last year said he got low 90s/120 and ended up with a 94 XD

 

[untouchablecuz]

my cuzn swears to God uleh that he got 42.3/120 but he got 92

so im right and you guys are wrong

ummmm there's band 6 for extention topics? Pretty sure BOS ranges E1~4.
Anyways I heard a 65~75 gets you an E4, but who knows... Btw my friend reckons he got about 110 and got 98. I saw the curve for the candidate marks and it seems to be highest towards the 100 area.

Yea Anna just needs to get more sleep these days.

 

[joben]

its better to get more sleep so u dont make silly mistakes in the exams (as we can see from the last few posts from annabackwards). I learnt dis da hard way.......
