How BADLY do your rankings affect your UAI? (1 Viewer)

[-X-]

I know these types of questions have been asked heaps of times but this is a little different.

Say my ranking was last for every subject (no not me, im exagerating ). Then in the HSC, i my marks were all above 85% for all subjects. What will then happen to my UAI? How will it scale down?


Thanks

theres no change in the system. they will still get the average of your exam + assessment

Assessment rankings or marks?

If you're ranked last in every subject... (even at a Selective school), you're in trouble!


(Of course, some motivational speakers might say that, BoS might adjust your Assessment marks because they are abnormally low, but don't count on it.)

but if the last mark is still 90% then thats still good conisdering everyone got above 90 and most definitely will in the hsc as well

Yeh, i'm in the same situtation...well not ranked last but above average (in 20-30s/100) people.

If I put everything into the HSC and get around 85% or higher in all subjects will it be possible to get a uai above 75?

Yeah im in the same boat i am ok in everything bar maths and i have a extra unit so hopefully i will do ok if only one unit of maths and my relo mark is counted. did i mention I HATE MATHS.
i want 70 or above

Or that might just be an indication of the quality (or lack of) in the exams.

Yeah, I think your rank won't adversely affect your marks if EVERYBODY doing that course at your school gets marks in the same range. Unlike the bell curve. Everybody hates bell curves. Say it after me: Everybody hates bell curves.

Umm.. where was I?

I don't mind bell curves, but if it affects my UAI then I really despise them *bell curves*.

Bell Curves are great! (As long as I'm at least 2 Standard Drinks from the Median.)
