Questions about HSC mark moderation
So i remember someone telling me that in the hsc, all your subjects are scaled/moderated against how well you do in English.
Is this true, and if so how does this work?
Another question/scenario:
I'd say my cohort is really smart at maths + sciences, but as a whole, it seems that we're not great at english.
SO we have the potential to do really well in the hsc and redeem our school rankings, but if the majority of people don't do exceptionally at english, does this mean our marks in other subjects would be affected, so we wouldn't rank as high as we could?
& sorry if everything i'm saying is just based on some rubbish rumour
