    this years exam - band 6 cutoff?

    lol... yeh Rench's been doing that ever since i joined BOS, always there to correct us on anything to do with aligning/scaling/everything! Id say the bad 6 cut off would probably be around 79/82... seeing as last year for physics a RAW mark of 87/100 got aligned to a 95/100... i'd assume...

    multiple choice...WTF?

    exacty! but as ppl have suggested, it wasnt in terms of the ratio, merely the fact that radiocative is for atomic number > 83 but if thats the case, then the answer is misleading, because how much is TOO many? and the ratio is neutrons/protons, but it doesnt matter, because whether its...

    multiple choice...WTF?

    I agree that B and D could both be correct... I have my doubts though and im beginning to think it is B, but neways I put D..B seemed correct at the time, but then something clicked and I ended up puting D...meh! (1) D (2) C (3) B (4) D (lucky guess prolly.. according to what u guy...

    band 6 cut off

    Since ur raned 1st, ur internal will either shift up or down depending on ur performance in the final HSC exam. if ur exam mark is the highest in ur class, then ur internal will be ur exam mark, so in other words, if u do get 85 (which in my opinion will align to about 94) ur internal will be...

    I Know Whats In The Hsc Exam!!

    serious?.. interesting I hope they dont ask that dot point, however something tells me they'll probably ask a question on the 4 scinetist, i.e Galvani, Volta, Davy and Farady...last year they asked a 4mark question on Farady... hmmm, actualy on second thought, probably not. I just realsied...

    Students of 2005 calculate the band cut offs for the 2005 HSC maths exam!

    thanks! yep, u got the idea, thats exactly how it will work, nice explanation by the way. Also, if we get more marks within that same range it'll be more accurate, and of course the marks submitted are estimates, so they're not 100% accurate, therefore the more data collected the more the...

    Scaling ???

    It's ur HSC, the only person u can fail is urself, but generaly so long as u gave it all uve got, theres nothing more u can do!...Although u can hope ur teacher never finds out ur mark, which is porbably highly unlikely. not to worry!..Im sure if ur internal was 42 a mark even as low as 33 in...

    90+ for chemistry

    nop!, according to Acmilan's Raw marks, it dosen't stay the same, all the sciences usualy get aligned nicely, its just that some get algined nicer than others!

    How did you find the EE1 HSC Paper?

    As Socrates once said (rephrased): The hour of departure has arrived, I to live and u to die, which is better?... English dying for sure! NO MORE ENGLISH... One day English will be made compulsory at Uni...!!! (impossible!...perhaps yes! perhaps no!) the exam was ok, but then again its...

    Extension English people

    Procrastinating by asking what the best way to procrastinate is, is the best form of procrastination! well done! U r officially procrastinating, and so am I because i havnt touched english extension ever since the trials!!!...Studying Physics and chemistry beats english anyday....I think!?

    Students of 2005 calculate the band cut offs for the 2005 HSC maths exam!

    yeh i suppose so, But lol, If i got 90 once the HSC results came out, I'd probably put that my estimate was 100/120 RAW, because maybe somehow everything i answered was 100% correct and even though before i was sure they werent...lol they must have been because theres no way i couldve got 90% by...

    band 6 cut off

    I think 75 is a little low... But as Serge said: " then again it depends on how hard this years test is in comparison to previous years" so its possible, But according to RAW marks from 2001, 2003 and 2004 I think an 80 would align to a 90. on the contrary according to the RAW marks...

    This year's band E4 cut-off?

    maybe close to 52/84 in 2001 Lazarus received an aligned mark of 46/50 his RAW mark was 56/84.... i.e 56/84...was aligned to ... a 46/50 But i highly doubt a 46/50 will be as low as 56/84 this yr...but then again, no one knows! I think the E4 cut off will most likely be somewhere...

    q4 biased toward 4 unit

    Yeh I thought of using 'u' ... but for some reason i didnt, but i think i sort of worked out something probably enough to get me at least 1 mark...who knows!... I don't really think it was a 4unit question I've see a similar question in a previous paper I think I even called the advice line...

    Q3(a) WTF!!!!

    Agreed. I think i was confused because I got an answer that when rounded off to 1 dec place gave 0.7, so i thought it was wrong and I think I just stopped, I cant even remeber, neverthless, i'll only get one mark for the working out..I doubt i put the answer as 0.7, however, Yes! the answer is...

    For the 2unit people

    prolly somewhere between 48-56/84... But im not complaining... I was supposed to drop 3 unit before the trials. Teacher convinced me to stay, and now i'm just hoping I can pull off something good after aligning and stuff... Im hoping for about 40/50 but i doubt it, I think a 50% will align to...

    This year's band E4 cut-off?

    well in 2004 , 75/84 got aligned to 48/50... 96/100 (for the 4 unit students) so a 95 would be close!... most likely hmmm... I dont think this exam was hard compared to previous years, there were tonnes of free give aways I never attempt question 7 but for some reason this yrs was...
