no way, you did great, consider it good marks as you didn't get under 85 not you didn't get above 95, that's a real feat! well done
just for the record, all those marks are A's (85+) except english, but english is silly
:eek: That's an average mark of 94.7
Wow! That's seriously some unbeliveable results, especially Science, Maths and Computers. Oh! I have a question, were you really confident you would achieve those marks or were you surprised when you got them??
Go post that you got 5 band 6's on...
its highly unlikely, if you scored a raw mark of about 30% chances are you will get a band 2 (50-60) as the BOS tries to make as many people as possible get above 50%
I think the bored site had 'technical difficulties' yesterday - the 13th of December, well it did for me anyway.
Anyone agree? I just couldn't even open the site...
Here is a poll for when you get your results. It is entitled "How many band 6 did you get?"
***For computers, a mark of 80-100 counts as a band 6 so therefore the maximum score for this poll is 6 and the minimum is 0.
The subjects are (to jog your memory if you forget):
> English
> Maths...
You WILL get 70's in science, if not higher, the school certificate marks are scaled UP [as cem (the senior member) said marks are aligned upwards] so therefore a raw mark of between 50-60 should rise to about 60-75.
Good luck receiving your results tomorrow everyone, I know you will all do well. :) Post your marks here on this thread. Go subject/mark/band or something.
Oh! Don't be ashamed if you get a 'so-called' bad result as (1) its only school certificate and (2) the standard of marks on this site is...
hardest parts of each test in my opinion were
> english short answer (15 marks in the middle)
> science extendeds (40 marks at the end)
> maths short answers (20 marks at the end)
> history multiple choice (20 marks at start)
> geography extended response (15 marker at the end)
> computers...
well I've put down advanced (as seen in my signature) and I can always change to standard if advanced is too challenging
thanks guys for all your opinions, really worthwhile
oh! I am quite motivated (have studied for a day before) so I can probably cope the harder concepts in advanced cause...
should you do a HSC course based on how well you went in that subject in the school certificate?
I don't know whether to do standard or advanced english? should I maybe do standard if I get below 80 in the SC test and advanced if I get above 80??
:confused: which should I choose?
what you guys think the minimum raw mark for a band 5 will be (i reckon low to mid 70's, but not sure)???
also it would differ from subject to subject...
> mark for personal goals
> rank for university/further education (UAI)
i believe its not everything to have a good rank, if you meet your personal goal of marks then you may not care and/or need to know your rank/UAI
that's my opinion and I know all of you disagree but oh well!
okay, so do you want me to edit or delete this thread (if possible)??
it seems fair what you guys said, but i did want to see what you guys thought of a combined report/sc test mark...
