Sorry, but neither of these are true. The way the marks are aligned depends on the Performance Band Descriptors for each course. A team of judges, who are drawn from the HSC marking team for each subject, determine what raw mark on the exam paper corresponds with the borderline of each of the...

Did your friend's aunty do the HSC in NSW? In NSW the system changed from the mark out of 500 to the TER in the late 80s/early 90s - I don't know the exact year. Certainly by 1994 they were reporting TERs (percentile ranks between 0 and 100). Marks out of 500 were no longer issued. The system...

A recheck is not a re-mark. They only check that everything you attempted was marked and that the marks were entered and calculated correctly.

For what it's worth, the Board changed the format of the DSA list on their website this year. They no longer include the student number for each student. This made it more difficult to collate the data. It also makes it practically impossible to include data from previous years, for example for...

This is what schools receive: * A report called School Group Statistics. It lists each course studied at the school, the number of students, the average and standard deviation of the school assessment marks, the average and standard deviation of the moderated assessment marks, the average and...

The first in state list is now up. First Place in Course - 2009 HSC - Board of Studies NSW

re: "Board of Studies lashed over HSC" and other stories From this morning's paper: How HSC students won the right to know Isn't that just under 3%? But worse still ... Why use the word rank in this context? And aligning marks has nothing to do with giving greater weight to more difficult...

Re: Full School Rankings I think Mt Druitt High is now known as Chifley College. There are a number of campuses.

In the zip file are all the Distinguished Achiever Lists from 2002 - 2008. Others were responsible for the 2002 - 2006 versions. I noticed recently that I missed at least one page on the Board's site when compiling the 2007 DSA list. The 2007 list in the attachment should be complete. :)...

Re: Full School Rankings Thanks Rafy for posting this. Attached is the same information, but in Excel format. Someone may find this useful if you wish to analyse the data.
