I was going through the forums before and I think someone said that the 5-6 will probably be 60-90? So by that theory band 4 is below 60 (not sure what the lower limit is). But again it's highly dependent on how everyone else performs this year too.. It may be higher or lower.
Good luck though.

In 2009, a raw mark of 61 got pulled up to a 74. Considering this years test was quite a bid harder than 2009 I'd say that a ~60% should easily get you a band 4.

oh wow really? well im averaging 73% in english at the moment, but normally only manage to get around 65% in my exams... so if i get 65% in this exam i should get a band 4? thanks heaps for the replies.

My bad, I meant to say ~60%.

How about advanced?

Is this the same for Math? Around 60% = Band 4?

if someone could answer, if i get 60 - 65 in this exam, will i get a band 4 if my school assessment was 73%? thanks heaps...
