humanities/scaling (2 Viewers)

[kwabon]

In reality, pretty much every subject scales down aside from math extension 2 and a few other subjects. BUT people usually talk about relative scaling though, so you might hear that math extension 1 scales up very well --> which is true when compared to other subjects which scale comparatively horribly...

but thats only if ext 1 maths counts as two units.

I've seen a lot of people doing humanities getting 98+ UAI's, however most of them said they had to average 95+ for all their assessments internally and externally to attain that UAI. So just wondering, if you do humanities and get marks in low 90's could you still get a 90+ uai/atar or could it also end up in the 80's?

internal marks don't mean anything, only ranks really. Yeah, they're an indication of your performance, but it's still easily possible to get over 98 with lower marks, just depends on how hard tests are. Also, people who get a 98+ UAI generally get 95+ for most subjects anyway, bar things like maths 3u, 4u and physics.
