    It's all over...

    i got 61/70 for my MX1 trials...

    if i kill the externals i still get pulled down in the HSC mark, what do i do? :'(

    EDIT: My aim is 65 or more out of 70

    If i can destroy my externals and get my desired mark, which mark am I allowed to keep, HSC or External?

    ]the bare minimum is 90%] - or it's all over

    61/70 isn't very flashy and it's not 90+

    Well, if you got that in the final exam, I would imagine that would align to a 90.

    no matter what marks you get right?
    e.g someone gets 60/100 but is rank 1, all that counts is his/her rank not marks eh?

    The mark is only looked at to show the relative gaps between students. Otherwise, it is not considered (in the right circumstances, a raw internal mark of 30 could become a final mark of 90).

    so a person who is rank 1 in a particular subject, his/her internal mark will be his/her final mark (if he/she gets the highest external mark) right?

    How much of a role does rank play if say the top spots are seperated by 1 or 2 marks?

    I think 61/70 would align to more than 90 in the final test tbqh.

    Mate, I reckon you're too far gone already, even if you smash externals you've still failed the course, the HSC, and hence your life.

    Might as well just off yourself now.

    61/70 is great. Marks don't get you jobs (although they do help), personality does. No employer will hire you if you complain that 61/70 is bad.

    Let's not lie, 61/70 isn't that good for high school.

    Don't worry, 61/70 is a pretty decent mark, your rank is impressive. Smash those externals and you'll get the ATAR you deserve
