Take 5 Panadols before entering the exam hall
So hypothetically imagine you were too ill to do ur mx2 exam and you apply for ill-misadventure - would the exam be different for you (dont think they do that?)or would it be the same exam coz last year people got access to the whole paper (in terms of posting it on here) a few hours after they sat it so..? just asking u if u know/if not ill just ask jimmy

If you miss your exam completely you will not sit another exam no matter what you say or do. If you’re illness and misadventure gets approved your get either your internal average for that subject or if you sat the test the mark from that whichever one is higher tho. If your misadventure gets declined, you get a straight zero if you missed the exam, if you did it you just get the mark.

But on a serious note I’m pretty sure applying for illness and misadventure would cover illness on the day. But I believe you need a doctors certificate from the same day.
What if your not super sick but it still messes with your ability. You cannot miss the exam btw, thats super dangerous

you need to go and report to the presiding officer and let them know youre sick so they can submit a report. If you need to leave the exam for any reason, have a break etc. they are aware and can submit documentation alongside your own medical certificate. Theres different misadventures you can apply for im pretty sure that should help in that situation. There are very strict guidelines you need to follow like getting the medical certificate ON THE DAY

So after you get the med cert on the day, how will they adjust your mark? What factors do they consider and how does the adjustment process work?

if its approved you will receive either your moderated school assessment mark OR your actual exam mark – whichever is higher. Its all on the NESA website

Would they moderate the actual HSC mark?
im not 100% sure on the process. all NESA says on their website is that you receive your moderated school assessment OR ur actual hsc mark. your internal ranking should be representative of your capabilities which is where your school assessment mark is derived from, if you are truly sick and dont do well in the exam youll get that and end up with an alright mark
