It says on your report your percentage for each subject. That percentage becomes half of your atar.

'The cumulative assessment mark included is not an official HSC Assessment Mark'
This is also written in my report

 

[studiesofboard]

Yeah like the HSC examination mark on your last report. That's how it supposed to work.
