    Illness/Misadventure process

    First let's assume the second ranked student has raw internal of 79. The best exam mark in the school apart from you is say 85. So 79 is moderated (adjusted) to 85. Now your raw internal 86 is 1/3 of the distance between 79 and 100. So your moderated internal will be 1/3 of the distance between...

    Question?

    Technically, you cannot "fail" a preliminary course, unless you mean an n-award. Since you say you are doing the HSC course, you cannot have been given an n-award. So, the prel course will have no impact on your atar.

    Misadventure/Illness

    BOSTES prefers to use unaffected parts of an exam since they are more "exam-y" than a school assessment mark. Same thing happens in a language, if you are sick for the speaking exam, they will estimate a mark from the written and listening exams.

    Misadventure/Illness

    You have to get a form from the school or exam supervisor. Since the problem was in english paper 2, an estimate will be calculated from your paper 1.

    Am I cold hearted?

    Memory dump method

    I think it means you go into an exam and write everything you know about a topic (dump your memory into the answer), in the hope that you might actually write something that answers the question asked in the exam. Not really effective, and you waste a lot of time writing stuff that is irrelevant...
