hey, could you check your private messages? thanks! :)

Crobat, words can't describe my appreciation and awe. thanks heaps man! :)

yep oblivious is right. i checked http://www.topscores.info/select-nsw.php. which has really good stats btw. By selecting "HSC Distinguished Achiever Counts per School and Subject", and specifying Baulko below, here's how many band 6s baulko has had each year (note:every year baulko has 200...

Really???

where did you get that stat from? and by that, do you mean moderated internal? because if so, then wouldn't then also mean roughly 50% of baulko students were sitting on 90+ external, which would then result in the same for internal moderated marks. if you get what I mean? was this only last...

hmm yeh now i get what you mean. then how much math do actuaries actually use when they're on the job?

[B] squareroot, I think you've misunderstood my intentions. when I said: The reason I said it was so you can gauge what my maths ability is. If I had plainly asked how hard will I find actuarial, well, someone would have replied "how am I supposed to know? I can give you a rough idea if...

bump!

Re: HSC 2014 4U Marathon nice jon kurosaki! :D that's exactly how i did it. :D

then how come, just at the end of the hsc external period, Board of Studies reports to students their ranks via Students Online. Why not marks? Because they might still tell me my right rank of last in say Basketweaving, but they might have had me down as 11 marks behind 2nd last in internals...
