Chem and Pdh

Every1 reckon the scaling for maths ext 1 this year gonna be similar to previous years.
45% - 50% = E3
65% - 70% = E4

You only need a 70% for E4?!

 

[saltedparsley]

You only need a 70% for E4?!

[ManifestationIsKey]

guys help i tested my atar with either english advanced or english standard and tell me why english standard gets a higher atar with the exact same marks??? am i crazy

 

[zackbekro123]

How can I see the average marks given for questions in tests like economics hsc and business hsc e.g. average mark was 3/5 for Q21b

wait i think it depends what mark it is. when it was 80 standard got a higher atar but when it was 70 advanced did

I don't think atar contribution of both subjects are hella different its js alignment for advanced is way better than standard

Btw is it just me or does anyone else also feel like if you could go back in time would you change the subjects that you picked?

YES and not even because of the hsc exams - I regret dropping two subjects and keeping another 2 unit this whole time I regret it so bad

 

[specc2040]

English should scale alright this year since it wasn't that hard but not even that easy. But because it was discursive or persuasive forced for mod c, so the scaling might go up quite a bit. Since half the state wrote abt technology for mod c, they basically narrowed the range of thought that students could write compared to if it was imaginative. So I guess scaling might be alright.

wait i don't think you had to write about technology - you just had to take the ideas from the stimulus, whether it was 'adopting the unconventional' or going 'back to basics' you could've written about anything

i wish i hadn't done math when i did my first round of hsc.... i did so bad in it and it wasn't like with modern where i at least enjoyed it even if i didn't do the best. but also if i hadn't done math i probably would've done bio which was on at the same time as standard and i don't think i was dedicated enough at that time to have done good in that course (which is part of my biggest gripe with the compressed curriculum system but that's a whole different thing)
