gloria,
I hope you're not kidding, but I will explain nevertheless.
It's not really saying anything about the Board, but it says a lot about my school. I feel that we have been hard done by, because our assessment marks were between 30 to 48/50 (internal assessment, raw marks).
Now, the lowest mark, I believe, from my school (EE2) - internal assessments had been in the low 30s. My mark was in the mid 40s for EE2, and the highest ranked student scored in the high-end 40s. I think he was about 47-48 out of 50.
Our teacher (who doubles as our EE1 teacher) called everybody up to ask for their UAIs and he spoke to me about EE2, seeing as though I was one of his students. He was surprised, because he had been expecting marks falling in the 30s and most students in the 40s. It was surprising to see many students, from my form (who did EE2) scoring as low as 19/50 - with the average mark being "a fail" (less than 25). There were a few students who were in the low 30s, but nobody at my school exceeded the mid 30s (the highest was 33/50).
Now, our assessment marks were in the high-end 40s, to mid 40s. Most of the marks were well above 35/50. Our assessment marks were all in the low 30s, if not mid to high end 20s. Our external exam marks, and I can only speak for myself, were better than the assessment marks, although they weren't much of an improvement.
Consequently, our marks ranged from 19/50 (the lowest, as far as I know), right up to 33/50.
This is disappointing to see, as our assessment marks were predominantly in the 30s, with about three students in the 40s.
I thought that they would've posted the number ages ago!
