I heard something about getting SC marks aligned or something which I don't really understand...

My english teacher told us that the school gets your grade from the year of work and then tells the bos whether you are an A student, B student, C student etc. and that factors in with what you got in the SC

I thought we got external and internal marks? A grade for school work and a band for SC?

Yea my english teacher confirmed about the aligning. How for every question, you're compared with every other students' mark for that one question.

I heard that also, I think it's all bullshit though. Your raw mark is your mark, that's it.
