scaling

I looked at the rawmarks database and the scaling for math ext 1 looks kinda similar to ext 2 and that doesn't sound right so I was a bit confused What is the scaling for math ext 1 actually like? (E.g. if I got a raw 90 in the exam what would that scale to) I understand scaling is more...

so you know how nesa counts our best 10 units? what if math ext is counted in as well, but the problem is it's only 1 unit. adding best 8 units (2 unit each 'normal' subject) and the one unit from math ext, that would only be 9/10 units counted! what happens to the last unit? do they just not...

My guide to getting a high mark in Standard English So as you know Standard English is a terribly scaling subject, if you want a high ATAR it is widely recommended to not do it. However I did not listen to this advice. My advice is the same, if you want 95+, it's better to do decent in advanced...

Hey guys this might be confusing but basically I do 11 units for hsc including math adv (2u). I'm definitely not going to do well in the hsc, i've struggled a lot all year with math but since i'm doing way better in all my other subjects, and atar only counts the top 10 marks, will only half my...

Me and this guy were so close in English there was a 0.7 course mark difference. It got me pondering... Is it possible for schools to submit 2 people as first to NESA? What if there is a genuine tie??

Hey guys, So when you enter your marks into the UAC atar calculator do you enter the raw marks that you think you will get in the exam or the marks you think you will get after scaling?

I am currently in yr 11 and I have 12 units, my subjects are: Maths adv English adv Bio Chem Food tech SOR 2 I do not know what course I want to do, so I would like a high atar to keep my options open. Will food tech ruin my ATAR because of scaling? I am reading lots of stuff about scaling and...

So, I have just got all my marks back for all my subjects and my averages across the two terms are ( I have included how much of the marks weigh in terms of total internal) Biology-82% rank 3/40 (40% weighting of internals) English Advanced -78% rank 4/30 (45% of internals) Maths Advanced- 77%-...

How accurate is the matrix education atar calculator? Also, do you put in your raw marks or your scaled mark estimates?

hey guys, so I was wondering if the prelim marks at my school are an indicator of how well my cohort is gonna do in the HSC, since year prelim averages were pretty bad (50% for all sciences, engineering, and MX1). I go to a decent school in NSW (top 50) if that matters is this because the tests...

Hey There, For my school trials (which are very hard) I have averaged 61% and for my actual math adv HSC this year I expect to get a raw mark of 93. Could somebody predict my final math mark after scaling please.

What is the difference in terms of scaling?

I just want to know what you guys think Maths Advance scales like. Like for example, approximately what would be my scaled final mark if I get a raw mark of 65 in Advance maths? And what would a mark like 75 (raw) scale like?

I want to do SDD or IPT for my HSC because I enjoy both, but I have been told the scaling is very bad, and in some cases you can get scaled down. I'm all for studying subjects that you enjoy and find interesting because you'll be doing it for 2 years, but getting a high ATAR is more important to...

Hey guys, I'm currently in year 12, went to a fairly good school ranked in the 100s, and the cohort was great. However I just moved to a rural area and thus had to move to my local school, which is ranked in the 800s, and this year I believe, there were only 2 students who got 1 band six each...

Hi guys, I've just wanted to ask if anyone would have an idea of the difficulty of achieving an 85+ ATAR based on my subjects for the HSC. Mathematics Advanced English Standard Software Design and Development Information Processes and Technology Business Studies I am aware that a lot of my...

i got my modern history assessment 1 back (weighted 30%), somehow misunderstood the question and got a 84% - i think im second last within a cohort of ~25 at a top 100 school . i dont understand much about the system of scaling, internals etc but roughly how bad is this if im aiming for a 90s...

deciding between legal studies and society/culture but i like them equally so is there much difference between scaling (if u get the same mark for instance)? is there a course that is better for my preferred uni courses (international relations / political science / international law / political...

i know scaling isn't supposed to matter if you do really well in your subjects but i feel so regretful that most of my subjects are not well scaling, i feel like its just added pressure to get really high marks. right now i'm taking adv english, standard math, biology, business, spanish and sac...
