Clarification... UAI of 90 places you in: - the top 10% of the SC candidature (~80 000) - the top 16% of the HSC candidature (~60 000)

It won't have any direct effect on your UAI - just like the school you go to doesn't have any direct effect on your UAI.

No - it just happens to work out that way for a class of only three people. If you actually read the PDF document to which that post links, you'll find an example of a class of six where that doesn't occur.

Mmm... I calculated that a while ago. It can be done in a number of different ways (each yielding similar, but not identical, results). I believe I worked from this formula: scaled max = scaled mean + (2.52 * initial scaled sd) For the combined English candidature, the maximum scaled...

There is now legal authority to support the proposition that hyperlinking to sites which host pirated material is sufficient to constitute an infringement of copyright: Universal Music Australia Pty Ltd v Cooper [2005] FCA 972. The test appears to be whether the administrator authorised the...

The calculations above are technically incorrect - refer to this post.

The method described in this thread is not correct - this should have become obvious when it was pointed out that such a system would allow a student to receive a mark greater than 100! The 'pool of marks' description serves as a convenient analogy, but nothing more. It does not explain how...

It will eventually be done... I have to choose between doing work for which I get paid (i.e. my real job) and doing work for free... and I've just moved out so you can guess which one wins. Sorry guys. Eventually.

Yes, it can count towards your UAI provided that you still satisfy the other requirements.

SAM works on HSC marks. Your half-yearly marks are likely to be different to your HSC marks.

Sorry guys, I have to clarify this: All exemplar responses received 100%. Only some of the responses in the standards packages are exemplar responses - most correspond to borderline performances between the bands - but this one is definitely an exemplar response. The response should be...

No. But if you appeal, and the decision is overturned, you can have the appeal fee reimbursed.

Yeah... he's right. Terry Gagen rules. ;)

The above explanations are correct, but you should also remember that in a class of one, your raw school assessment mark would most likely be given a great deal of consideration in the event of an illness or misadventure appeal. It would be rather unfortunate for a student to focus on the HSC...

Once you have completed all of your school assessment tasks, your internal rankings will be finalised and set in stone. The external ranking of students in your class on the actual HSC exam might be the same as or different to the internal ranking.

Your moderated assessment marks are put towards your HSC marks, not your raw assessment marks. Everyone in your class (or at the Open High School centre) will be assigned a moderated assessment mark based on their assessment ranking, how far ahead of or behind the other students they are and...

Your teacher is under a misapprehension as to how the system actually works. A class only escapes the moderating process when it consists of a single student.
