It means that you are guaranteed to have your moderated assessment mark set equal to the top examination mark from your class. :) You are effectively immune to the performance of your classmates - they cannot, for example, 'pull you down'. If you're also the one who happens to attain that top...

<hr align="center" width="70%" size="1" color="#000000"> Bored of Studies Distinguished Achievers List The following students have joined the ranks of the proud, the few, and the elite. Predigious and most august students of the HSC in 2004, we salute you! If you think we've missed...

I believe it would be considered an informal unenrolment. You should phone the Board to make sure.

The extended response question constituted 15 of the 45 available marks. The entire paper constitutes 40% of your English examination mark. That mark is only 50% of your English HSC mark (and we'll assume that no-one else in your class made the same mistake, so your moderated assessment mark...

They'll speed up again in a week or so when we aren't being bombarded by crazed HSC students.

This is the official discussion thread for Paper 1. Post your comments!

Fantastic! Congratulations on being the first to collect points! :D Quite a resourceful solution too. We'll set up some kind of tally with points and tasks completed tonight. ;)

Let's pray that it survives tomorrow as well.

Be creative! You're not limited to what's on that list - you can do anything! :D Xayma, a recording of a crying HSC advisor would be worth double bonus points. ;)

Your best two units of English are compulsorily included - this could be both Extensions, or just Advanced, or one Extension and half of Advanced, etc. If your remaining two units of English also happen to be in your top eight, then they'll be included as well.

I think the targeting algorithm behind Google's ads confuses itself sometimes. :)

You need your student number and centre number (which is just a code for your school). Both should be provided for you. (This wasn't the appropriate forum.)

The responses were written by students who sat the actual HSC exams. The Board publishes them in standards packages. Exemplar responses scored full marks - 100%. Responses marked as band 5/6 scored 90. If you can do better, you'll score higher. :)

It's still based on their individual performance.

Mishka is correct. The '4 subjects' rule only goes to eligibility - once you're eligible for a UAI, it doesn't matter anymore. So you'll have your top two units of English count, and then your next best eight units.

<!----> SAM certainly isn't that inaccurate, and I'd encourage you to provide data to prove me wrong if you speak the truth. http://www.boredofstudies.org/scaledmeans.php I believe it scales quite well - twice as well as physics or chemistry, for example. It's not the highest scaling...

The Board cannot (or does not) review the actual marks awarded. It can only review the investigation carried out by your Principal, and whether your appeal was handled fairly.
