that's exactly what I thought. But since the only raw marks I have to go on for geography are yours and mine (I think we are the only people on Bored to get raw geog marks) I figure it can't hurt to double check.
I only applied for my raw marks in English Advanced, Maths Extension 1 and Geography.
I didn't do that well, but I'm still pleased with my results.
English Advanced:
Reading 10/15
Creative Writing 13/15
Belonging Essay (The Simple Gift) 13/15
Paper 1: 36/45 (or 32/40)
FrankenRunner 14.5/20...
I know it's just the early stages or the year for you guys, and HSC is important, but it's not worth bad health over. A girl in my school 2 years ago got chronic sleep disorder as she was trying to do too much (15 units). She ended up only getting between 2-3 hours sleep on average throughout...
Haha same for my school. We had no band 5/6's in our year, but that being said, we thoroughly out-performed last year at our school. It only takes a few to help boost your school. We managed to get from 170-something, to 40s! It doesn't matter how good the previous year is unless you are at a...
Ah well, I'm still going to probably pay the excessive amount for my raw marks, so I can see what I got, and help other people know the band cutoffs/aligning process.
So as the title says, I'm obviously looking at applying for my raw marks with the new service the BOS has put in this year: The HSC raw marks report.
I believe last year when applying with the template put up on here, it cost around $20-$30 to apply for raw marks.
But with what the BOS has...
English Adv Paper 1: Easier
English Adv Paper 2: Harder (Due to mod B)
Maths Ex 1: Harder (As the questions were just weirder, and more time consuming)
Maths Ex 2: Harder (Q4 + 5 were strangely difficult - for me at least)
Geography: Harder (more specific short responses and poorly worded long...
I thought the MC were a bit weirder than previous years, and I usually find them ok.
Also as if there were no skills in the short answer section as well as multi choice. There should be more than about 15 marks of skills in the whole paper. Complete crap if you ask me.
Also short answers were...
I have been sitting in the physics class for 2 years now. I have not learnt anything. I have not done any homework.
The closest I got was when my friend went over astrophysics with me today. This morning when I walked out the door I didn't even know anything about stars.
I'm about to try and...
