can anyone guess or have a stab at wat a band 5 and band 6 scores will be?


can anyone also tell me what last years cutoffs were for band 5s/6's

 

[pig_93]

id say it would be shit high
the amount of ppl who were sooo capable of getting 95up and even then, HUNDREDS may have gotten 100.
i personally got bet 90 and 94 and i think that i will get high 80s for maths

but hey. i have no idea lol
im just having a guess
ps i dont know what last yrs was

nah alot of people are talking shit on here I bet only a few will score 90+, basically this site is for heaps smart people on it, Just normal people at maths probly scored like 70's and 80s in this test so i dont think 100 or 1000s get 90s....

 

[Smartie87]

they dont change ur Exam mark!!!!!! U keep that no matter what it is, The only thing they change is the school assessment. I dont know what your teachers have been telling you!! If u get a 95, they arent gonna scale it to an 85 cuz lots of people went well.

 

[deeznuts]

hmm yeh, i know the only people that check here from my school are top 4 or so ppl in subject

 

[Mandy101]

Smartie87 is right. You keep your raw exam mark. It gets scaled when UAC are working out your UAI depending on how everyone else went.

 

[sikeveo]

No she/he isn't. It gets aligned first.

 

[Picle]

so im thinking if you got a good school assessment mark say 93% would that mean your maths would be good still say if you got like 94% in the exam?

 

[Mandy101]

^ How is it aligned when the criteria is set before students sit the test?

 

[Mandy101]

^ Yeah, I'm aware that moderated assessment marks are aligned, and thus the average for that subject, but the actual exam mark isn't. That's the whole point of the new HSC.

 

[Casmira]

So raw 90 might get aligned to 95+ or does it go down?

 

[Smartie87]

NOOOOO LISTEN TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE RAW MARK U DONT GET BAK IS YOUR RAW ASSESSMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY SCHOOL HELD MEETINGS FOR US TO EXPLAIN THE PROCESS!!!!!!!!!!! U KEEP UR EXAM MARK!!!!!!!!!!!!

please just believe me.

NOOOOO LISTEN TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE RAW MARK U DONT GET BAK IS YOUR RAW ASSESSMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY SCHOOL HELD MEETINGS FOR US TO EXPLAIN THE PROCESS!!!!!!!!!!! U KEEP UR EXAM MARK!!!!!!!!!!!!

please just believe me.

sorry to tell you but your wrong. "withoutwings" got her raw exam marks back and the moderated marks. her english exam went from 77 raw to around 87 after moderated. so "please we wont believe you"

EDIT BY WITHOUT WINGS: This statement about Without Wings is totally incorrect - I did not get my raw mark back, and i also did not get 87, tommy does not know what mark i got.
This goes to show you can't believe everything that is said on bos

 

[Casmira]

what about low 90s or high 80s for general maths, any guess what you guys reckon that'd go too?!

 

[7th Sign]

man people on this forum dont know jack shit abotu bands lol


If you score better then the average you will not be scaled at all,

If you interneal assesment was 89% and your exam mark was 89% it will stay at 89% for general..

If your internal mark was 70% and your exam mark was 80% you will get 75%.

this is only if your score better then the average.

If you do not you may be scaled down.

 

[Casmira]

align is the correct term, scaling's done for calculating UAI where your raw mark is 'scaled' to whatever the UAC decides (ie. down for general maths)

 

[GiantSloth]

Ok say i got 50 for my school assessment mark and i get 74 in the hsc for this exam what mark will i end up with ?????
