i dunno if this has been asked elsewhere, if it has, im sorry
ok, say their is a subject and no-one gets 100% in both the exam and school-based mark
but theres two people, one gets 99 exam, and 100 school-based
the other gets 100 exam and 99 school-based

coz the HSC is 50/50 exam and school based, does that mean they would both be equal first? like one wouldnt do better than the other?

 

[blue_chameleon]

To my knowledge yes thats correct. The two marks would average out to be the same, therefore making them both equal first.

 

[Ragerunner]

Yep that is correct. They average the two, forming the (common) HSC mark of 99.5.

^^ But they only do whole figures don't they? So wouldn't that mean 100?

The Board stores marks to 1 decimal place; they're just rounded off on your certificates.
