Mathematic Extention 2 trial results (1 Viewer)

[SXC_DRAGON_BOY]

what paper did u do (aka independant, CSSA or school made), and what was your raw and scaled marked?

i got 50/120 as a raw mark, havnt got a scaled marked yet but when i do i will post it up?

also if u know how your teacher scales your extention 2 mark, can you plz add it in your post too.

I was very dissappointed with my trial result (many silly errors)... I got <90. Mine was a hybrid paper.

Since when do trial marks get scaled?

 

[SXC_DRAGON_BOY]

far... the highest scaled marked i eva received was 84%.... you must be aiming very high...

wish i was a high achiever, but not anymore since i got my trials back

the highest in my class is 80% , my teacher that will approximately scale to 100 ! I got 60 percent and that is about 96!

Must be like sydney boys paper

I don't understand this scaling thing. What's the point of it? It's obviously not to give the student an indication of thier HSC result, cos there's no way that 80% would go to 100 (afterall the top mark is usually like 98%).

student applying early entrance will have a big advantaged with big scale marks

huh?
explain....

i don't think scaled school marks make any difference....
it will probably be adjusted again anyway...

 

[Newbie]

we dont get scaling in any of our assessments
hmm
but then our dux gets like 99% in the 4unit anyway
what a gimp

what's that early entrance stuff?

A big different in raw mark doesn't mean a big different in scale mark! in last 2 year , even some student did about 40 percent correct in 4u , that mark will scale to 90! So if the top raw mark is 98, and that will scale to 100, then 80 in raw mark will scale to about 99 point something!

My teacher told us the amazing thing happened in 10 years ago, the scaling of 4u is so high at that time. That there is a student studied general maths but don't want to do any works, then the teacher put him in 4u class , and he got 2 out of 200 in raw mark, finally he got a scale mark of 68/100

 

[william]

the paper we did is CSSA. I think the scaling of 4u now is refer to the performance of 4u students on 3u paper and 3u students on 2u paper.

you mean the aligned mark.. the actual scaled mark for UAI calculation must be jack low..

 

[freaking_out]

yeah, we did the independent with the mechanics taken out coz we hadn't done it....i got 80%

nope, i don't think my teacher scales the marks, i thought thats done at the board of studies.

My teacher just made a rough estimation from his 20 years teaching experience! coz everyone is keen to know how they are going on at this stage

boy, thats reliable.

That's what UAI calculator used for! Accurate output requires accurate input
