Rank 1st and Rank 1st by a relatively large margin. (2 Viewers)

[JJmn]

Who cares? The 1st ranked person who worked their ass off and smashed the 2nd ranked person in every assessment by a large margin and in the end getting an internal mark which is almost no different to the 2nd ranked.

And boy wouldn't it be funny if the person who comes first in the hsc exam so happens to be the person coming second or third even though he/she "didn't really work hard enough"...

Then it'd bite you back in the ass wouldn't it.

Like I said before (which you disregarded) it may not always be the case of who's working harder that gets ranked first place. When two students hand in the exact same paper, and manage to get two completely different marks, you know its not a true indication of ANYTHING.

If you're ranking first, and it IS because an accurate indication of how hard you work or your capabilities then you have nothing to worry about, whether the person below you getting a difference of 1 for the internal mark or 10, because you're still first!! The rest really comes down to selfishness.

That happened at my school. We had a student coming first in the state for Physics but he wasn't the top internally. But the internally top guy did well in HSC (he came top 10 in the state) so they didn't drag each other down.

Thats always a risk for the top ranked.

Two people handing in the same paper and receiving different marks. Have you seen this happen? And do you have reliable evidence that this happened?

Selfishness? You are right. Because the UAI is a rank.
