That's what I thought...my results sheet says 100th percentile though..(i know that doesn't necessarily mean first) but teacher said my principal was contacted the other day saying I came first.

I think they run two different comps, an assessment and an actual competition. The one I'm referring to does not provide you with the scores, and is a competition for prizes. Whatever you sat i don't think we do it at Ruse, don't ask me why. Would have liked to have done it though, just to see what the questions were like. If 36/40 was the top score, then the comp must have been of reasonable difficulty (unlike those we sat back in primary school).

Yes, definitely a different competition.
For a start, the UNSW one was marked out of 42 (or at least, the Junior was, this year!)

And yes, I was there... for lunch, anyway...
