You mean 50% of assessment mark go towards the UAI?
Does it mean that if you get 80 UAI in hsc exam then they will add your assessment task mark to your final UAI mark?
The UAI is a rank not a mark.
The BOS has the following steps:
1. Schools assess students and submit a mark to the BOS out of 100.
2. Students sit the externally set HSC exam.
3. BOS align the HSC marks to the Performance Descriptor Bands.
4. BOS moderates the school assessment marks to the aligned HSC marks for the school.
5. BOS averages the moderated assessment mark and the aligned exam marks to get the final HSC marks.
5. All these marks are forwarded to UAC who then calculate the ranks for all eligible students in the state - the UAI.
So it isn't 50% of the assessment mark that is used in the UAI calculation but 100% of the assessment mark but it contributes 50% of the marks that are used by UAC to calculate the UAI.
