it is easier to get a higher scaled mark say 93 in 4u math however the reason that it is scaled up so high is because of the fact that it is hard say even get in the low to high 80s in 4u math but in english advanced it is easier to get in the 80s as such you will only be scaled up a few marks compared to 4u
...
i'm talking about HSC marks, not scaled marks
a HSC mark of 93 in 4u maths has a similar scaled mark to a HSC mark of 97 in english advanced
a HSC mark of 93 in 4u maths requires likely a raw mark in the 70's or 80's whereas that 97 in english advanced prob needs very close to 97 raw to get.
the reason for scaling isn't just due to how hard the subject is btw
3u maths scales better than physics or chemistry but is arguably less challenging than them

no diss to year 10s, just kinda concerned about how much pressure year 9 and 10s are under if theyre making chats where theyre already worrying a ton about hsc
That's true. But I think by being able to learn now it saves less stress for reaching year 11 and still not understanding how ATARs are calculated, subjects, and all that sort of stuff.

I don't worry, I just like knowing things so thats why I'm asking about scaling. Good to know beforehand

Wait so like I do Jap elective this year and somehow my teacher decided to tell me that there might not be a continuers course in 11&12. Honestly it's kinda a waste of time if I don't even do it for hsc. Please tell me she's wrong

Your school may not run it in Year 11 and 12, however, that doesn't mean you can't take the course. You can take Japanese Continuers via New South Wales School of Languages if you really want.

why would it be a waste of time you’re still learning the language, all other electives are useless for y11/12 anyway
