lol ppl think this is good, but what if someone did RAW marks vs aligned marks (not that we have the info, but IF we did)

then do a final RAW marks vs Scaled marks - it would be such an inflation, compared to 2U!! lol

lol, thats very true, it'll be like that graph except swap 2unit and 4unit with raw marks on the x axis and aligned on the y

Hmm...so 90 in 2U Maths is equal to a 74 in 4U maths aye. I wonder what raw mark you would need to get 74+ in 4U...

That graph can be misleading. It seems to imply a correlation between aligned marks and scaled marks when the process to achieve either of them from original raw marks are completely different from each other.

Don't be too alarmed about the perceived "lower" 2 unit scaling. A 90 in 2 unit is not the same as a 90 in Ext2.

Notice that at the top end, they appear to "converge" to 100. This implies an aligned mark of 100 in Ext2 has equal scaled mark value as an aligned mark of 100 in 2 unit :p.

but doesn't 100 mean 100 in every single assessment task and exam? it's extremely difficult not to make any mistakes in any tests.
