    Scaling for standard English?

    Hmmm, having fallen into the standard English trap myself, I've researched this subject a fair bit. The only set of raw marks I was able to find were in their low sixties, with the HSC mark being in the low seventies. Keeping that in mind, only fifty or so students (0.18%) achieve band sixes...

    Is 4U really that hard

    I experienced the same dilemma in year 11, and looking back I can say with absolute certainty that not doing 4U was one of the worst decisions I have ever made. Do it petermilk, do it for me.
