Actually, does anyone know how tiebreakers work? I thought they also considered the quality of your responses"can" you? most definitely! I don't know exactly how SR works, but since it's not impossible someone from such a school gets full marks, then of course you can. the only issue may be that any tiebreakers may not go in this person's favour (I believe they use internals for tiebreakers?) - correct me if I'm wrong. also, it's just rare that such a talented individual would succeed in such a school merely because at that point it gets to good exam technique; some kid might be a math genius but if they simply don't have the access to resources, then their chances are much slimmer.
just by scrolling through the top achievers list (the number is the rank):

i've heard for maths ext2 they consider ur ext1 marksActually, does anyone know how tiebreakers work? I thought they also considered the quality of your responses
what if extension 1 is also tied, do they consider retarded shitty english then?i've heard for maths ext2 they consider ur ext1 marks

do they actually care about how elegant a solution is? Cause the official solution NESA publishes are sometimes awful and ugly. Even for math advancedFor math I know they look at how deep your response was - for example, in an induction proof, did you always state the values that n can be? Who solved it the most elegantly, with the nearest working?
As for HSIE subjects, I feel that full marks is generally less common, but likely it would be the depth of your response. It only matters for 1st place though, as all the other places will just be ties!
elegant solutions r always nice to readdo they actually care about how elegant a solution is? Cause the official solution NESA publishes are sometimes awful and ugly. Even for math advanced
In theory, it is easier to state rank as a 1st ranker in any school than it is to state rank as a 5th ranker in a top 5 selective school.What the title says, bc all of the state ranks are either: selective, private school or really good (top 150) comprehensive schools

they prob just do it based on how clean ur working is/adhering to marking guidelines or tiewhat if extension 1 is also tied, do they consider retarded shitty english then?
If NESA cannot discriminate between two or more individuals (after looking at their responses and determining each have the same merit of quality), then they will look at their internal rank. If both individuals were both first, then NESA will award them equal 1st place.Actually, does anyone know how tiebreakers work? I thought they also considered the quality of your responses
Of course you can state rank! Admittedly, some schools have more resources but everyone sits the same HSC exams, so just work hard and see where it takes you. Tbh, some people I know who got a state rank in actuality were not directly aiming for a state rank, more so that they were passionate and willing to put in the work.What the title says, bc all of the state ranks are either: selective, private school or really good (top 150) comprehensive schools
