Sometimes it's misconstrued what each term means:

For geniuses (i.e. Laurie), Honour Roll is the list of the top in each subject down to rank 5 10 or 20. The official name for this is actually the "Top Achievers in Course"

For BOS it's the list of everyone who got over 90 in any subject.

Premier's award is for people who scored over 90 (or 45) in 10 units or more. And is awarded at a ceremony with a light lunch (I think). These people are referred to as "All Rounders".

I got over 90 for Chemistry, German Beginners, Ancient History and Mathematics. I was pretty close for my other two subjects too. I got 88 for both of them!

They're based on raw HSC marks to one decimal place (and not exam marks alone as grimreaper said).
