    Advanced English vs Standard English

    There are capped subjects, and yes sadly IT is one of them. 2009: 50-->40.4 Which means the student who got 100 got 100 reported on his HSC report, but when calculating his atar the aggregate score contributing for 1unit X2 was 40.4 Edit:(i.e. a 80.8 contributing if it was in his best 10 units)

    Advanced English vs Standard English

    Oh God.... 2008 Biology: 99-->100 2009 Biology: 98-->99.8 The scaling for the subject is the same however they aren't going to unfairly award a student who scored 1 less % than last years max 100 scaled mark. Yet even though the max wasn't 100 in 2009 for Biology, BIOLOGY IS A NON-CAPPED...

    Advanced English vs Standard English

    The HIGHEST mark was 94, you cant scale a 94 to 100, if someone in standard later on in the years got a 99-100 then yes his HSC mark would scale to 100. Standard is not capped. E.g.

    Advanced English vs Standard English

    Most of the standard cohort is lazy and doesn't work hard and are generally less intellectual in English writing than their advance peers, thats why standard is considered shit.

    So my teacher told me to stop giving ATAR Estimates...

    Doesn't mean you're gonna be ripping off band 6s for you're subjects mate. Stop being over confident that you're going to get over p50 in subjects like MX1 and especially MX2 where the majority of the cohort in MX2 is from very high ranked schools.

    Whats best, chemistry or physics?

    They both have pretty good content, but i prefer chemistry in the end of the day because my physics teacher is a major bludger and is very lazy.
