Raw Marks to Scaled Mark (Or whatever it is) (1 Viewer)

[evanstroeve]

Say I get the below marks in the externals, what would they scale to?

EAd: 95/105
EE1: 48/50
MX1: 81/84
MX2: 109/120
Modern: 92/100
HistExt: 47/50
SDD: 91/100

Thanks.

Rough guesses:

EAd: 96
EE1: 48
MX1: 97
MX2: 98
Modern: 96
HistExt: 47
SDD: 94

Those are really rough estimates, as aligning standards change from year to year.

Thankyou!

enoilgam, why does English scale so terribly?

 

[enoilgam]

I'd imagine those raw marks would be enough for 99.8 minimum, possibly .95.

Thats a really rough idea. With english, I think paper one is out of 40%, whilst paper two is out of 60%, so BOS aligns a mark out of 100 and not 105 (I'm not 100% sure on this, but I have heard it before). So english is hard to predict - I guess it could be higher. Personally estimating aligning is really pot luck as it can vary so much from year to year.

so sorry, just saw that the OP had given her/his marks out of 105. Makes sense! I know you can never tell, about scaling. Today my students wanted me to give them bands when I marked their papers, but I had no clue! Thanks anyways

Nonetheless, enoilgam, your estimates have given me peace of mind!
That's all I was really after.

the MX1 should be around 98-99, a 97 for MX1 is normally around 74-77 iirc

State rankers get around the 83-84 mark, thats what I went off, but I guess its possible.

yeah it is possible
and I just checked, the MX2 mark should be around a 98, since 97 is equiv to 105/120

Edited it. I'd say those marks would probably be 99.95 ATAR range.

including the fact that SDD won't count towards their ATAR

Yeh SDD doesnt near as well as those other subjects.

What will a 66/84 for MX1 give you?

 

[enoilgam]

What will a 66/84 for MX1 give you?

Around 91-94 (If you do MX1 and 2U then probably 46/50).

 

[4025808]

Around 91-94 (If you do MX1 and 2U then probably 46/50).

it would be around 94, since 91 would give you around 59-60
