UAI Concern!!!! (1 Viewer)

[leestarr]

Do you guys think if hypothetically saying someone doing the hsc has average marks and ranks througout the year and then get's all band six's or majority of band six's in there hsc and trials will get a UAI of 90.

Also there school isnt very good there ranked like over 300

I mean just to see if they have any hope of 90

and saying subjects like std english
busienss studies
legal
gen maths
pdhpe

thanks

i dont think so... maybe at best in the 80's. If all marks and ranks were average, cuz the UAI works on the rankings - not so much individual marks. this is especially the case for school assesments

average...would be pretty bad in such a low ranked school and then to suddenly get all band 6's is very unlikely, u'd probably be getting top 1-5 places definitely if that happenned

your overall marks would move up, since you over performed in the hsc exams in relation to your ranking, but they wouldnt move up all the way to the hsc exam mark. they would get caught in the middle

so in the end if you did average all year and got an average rank then got band 6 in exams, your final mark would be somewhere in the middle, probably in the 80s, and so you would probably not get over 90 UAI. just below it i'd say (unless you get super high band 6's, around 97-98, in which case you might be able to get above 90UAI)

i just spoke to a class mate and he said that ext 1 math scales down a few marks but ext 2 math little less is this true!!

ma subjects are:
ext 1 math
standard english
2u math
bio
chem
legal studies

i have a friend that sat for her HSC in 2008 and passed all her HSC exams but managed to get a UAI <30.00 how is this possible
she did:
music
visiual arts
ancient history
gen math
standard english

 

[dp624]

ext1 scales evenly (comparing the aligned -> scaled marks)
ext2 scales up quite a bit

 

[zazzy1234]

what do u mean scaled evenly lol?

dude, firstly, take a chill pill. you've been posting stressed out posts all over the forum.

secondly, your friend probs got <30.00 because her pass marks were only "just pass", and the main factor is that her subs are all lowly scaled.

yeah her subjects are pretty poorly scaled. & whats a pass? a pass could be 51 or 99? it depends....

 

[zazzy1234]

like she got, the way i remeber
80% in visiual arts
58% in gen math
and the others are in the 60s

i know i'm stressing out alot even my mum tells me to calm down,but u know i'm just scared of failing i just i don't get a poor UAI that's all =)

but what is meant by scaled evenly

 

[possessionless]

^ yeah see she didnt do that great, no offence to her.
i know someone who got all band 4's & one band 5 but her subjects were really poor scaling so she ended up with a UAI of 50. oh well....
dw everyone tells me to stress less
& i dont think its true :| but i wouldnt know....the maths coordinator at my school told me that wasnt true.

 

[zazzy1234]

^ ok, i would believe due to fact he reasearched it on the internet
andby the way how did ur other subjects go? lol
