In term 4 i got 56% in phsyics test, and 64% in ext1(when the avg was 76)
So i was so worried about hsoe 2.,...

Anyway i did start working hard after tht term and in the hsc i got 80 in physics and 88 in ext1 maths

I ended up with a uai 94.85..... so.... theres a huge chance still

That's cool. :)

I got 55% in extension 2 maths :( and 71% in Chemistry -- so I'm definitely looking to improve those two.

Wow, that's a relief. I'm ranked 1st but there's only 3 of us and one girl is dropping - so 2. I'm just disappointed since the test was relatively straight forward but I choked under exam pressure.

But yeah, from your experience it sounds very promising. I'm starting to love all this moderation/scaling business everyone is talking about. :)

I stuffed up term 4 assessment for 2 unit hsc maths last year. I came equal 11-12th (with like 10 people) out of 70 people. So I basically was ranked like 20-25 in reality.

At the end, I got 100 in 2 unit hsc maths.

Were you ranked 1st internally at the end of the year?

Lol only 3 of you - you had better rely on your own performance. I'd be really angry if i was ranked 2nd and topped the external by a fair margin
However it allows you to state rank easier =P

Nah, if you are competing against a really good guy and manage to come equal first, and then you lose a mark and then the other gets 100, he will pull you up. I think many Ruse people got pulled up in that regards.

On the other hand, if you are first and lost just a mark, you have less chance of getting state rank because state rank is determined first by HSC mark and internal mark.

i literally failed chem less than 30% , i had the lowest mark in my 3u maths class(almost consistently) and below average for physics in term 4

i was really devastated and i thought there was no hope for 90+ uai.

i was like at the bottom 20% of the cohort and in the end i managed to pull around 95

only started studying really hard during trials and actual hsc, not bad =)
