question about trials and raw marks (1 Viewer)

[Kaatie]

firstly. why do most school sit the same trial exams? wont people be on bos exchanging say what was in chem for what was in eco etc?

2ndly with raw marks im a little confused, so they get scaled right... but surely there has to be a few select people that get full marks on a paper like mathematics? or even at least one in the thousands?

cheers

This is why all trials happen to a strict timetable, to prevent people telling other students. e.g. for people doing CSSA the English paper is tomorrow for everyone so no one can cheat.

So it must also be true that people who miss an exam due to illness, exceptional circumstances, family matters etc will get an estimate based on previous assessments?
