The short answer is yes, you can still get in the high 70s. If you work hard on it leading up to the HSC exam, then you'll most certainly be satisfied with your result.

I agree with Rench, if you read one of the many threads about the aligning/moderating/scaling process, you'll find out that marks really don't matter that much - the actual ranks are much more important, and since you're second, that's not too bad. In any case there is little point worrying about it, you'd be much better off focussing your energy on doing the best you can in the exam, because that is what will give you the mark you want.

Yea. Your trials may have been more difficult than the HSC exam will be. There's no way to determine exactly how well you'll do in the HSC by simply looking at trial marks. To reinforce what Techie said, the best thing you can do now is to revise your work and focus on the upcoming exam.

Yep, definently

i was reading over my sisters work and she got 25/50 in her 3u maths and was about half way into the year that does that, (she lost her 1st place rank), worked her ass off in the HSC and got 48/50

anything is possible :uhhuh:, dont think of the trials as "oh shit im going to fail at HSC" think of it as "this is what I do and don't know" because trials are what its named, trials! they are meant to see what you are dodgy at, so maybe you have a little bit of work to do, who cares! just do it and dont sit there contemplating if you went bad, think of it as this, you turn that 49% into 94% just by simply doing a bunch of questions and getting them right :uhhuh:
