Biology Raw Mark vs Alignment Mark (1 Viewer)

What do you think the b6 cut off for this years biology paper will be considering that exam was an absolute disgrace to all biology students?

A mark or two below 80, perhaps.

What do you mean by 'disgrace'? Did you find it too difficult or too easy?

B4 and B5 cut-offs???

About 58 for Band 4 I think, and maybe a 67-69 for Band 5.

So I'm actually so confused on the whole aligning process. I don't have a really good rank for bio 8/40 but I think I got low eighties for the bio hsc exam. How does that affect my hsc and assessment mark? Help a poor girl out pls

So basically its what BOSTES do and its when they caculate your schools mean and distribute those HSC exam marks to each person in your grade according to rank from the internals so that it corresponds to the HSC average. So you get that 50% "internal" mark and then 50% of your actually raw exam mark. So rank is crucial!

Ohh, thank you. I guess I better hope my cohort did really well in the exam then to save me from tragic internals haha
