Cem, Thanks for replying first of all but all the examples u gave if u divided that "raw" mark by 2 and added 50 it resulted in the mark u said it MAY be alligned to :p.
That might have been what you did to make it happen but if it did it was unintentional.

The idea I was trying to get across was that aligning is a process of taking marks across a 0 - 100 continuum and squashing it into virtually a 50 - 100 scale.

If by accident you could divide the raw marks I used by 2 and add 50 it was pure accident and certainly never intended to suggest that that is the process. It most certainly isn't.

I apologise if my examples, off the top of my head, caused some confusion.

Oh ok no worries. Although the "alligning" does it change dramatically year by year or is it constant throughout every year?

Curiosity.

It does vary every year, just as it does with the HSC but not by a large amount.
