You'll probably want to tick the second one (copy of documents). Your student number is sufficient.

And for future reference, it is highly unlikely that your raw school assessment marks would be indicative of your aligned HSC marks.

Yeah, there really are some similarities between Explosive and the X-Men theme... I like a few of their pieces (and that mix of Eleanor Rigby they performed on The Panel), but I think their album is too poppy. :(

They don't reflect anything to do with your UAI. The UAI is all about ranking students for entrance to university, but only 30% of HSC students actually proceed to tertiary study. The UAI is pretty much irrelevant to the other 70% of students. HSC marks report performance in terms of set...

I promise the list will be updated very soon! (i.e. 20 Nov) Sorry, I've been incredibly busy - my own exams are very soon. :(

It is exhaustively explained in the technical forum. Start with this thread. (Edit: timrie6 beat me to it.)

The latter. The 2004 cut-offs were what you needed to get in during 2004 (i.e. this year). The cut-offs for next year (2005) won't be finalised until preferences are locked in.

Mr Bennet is, more or less, correct. Whilst the scaling for most courses really hasn't changed (which was the part where he went wrong), it does seem that these days students need to achieve higher HSC marks in order to score the same UAI as a student from a previous year. But this is to...

If your misadventure appeal is successful, and you: (a) sat the exam - You will keep your examination mark if it is higher than your moderated assessment mark, otherwise see (b). (b) missed the exam - You will receive your moderated assessment mark as your examination mark.

No, don't PM me - I don't have time to answer the same questions again and again. Read all the threads in these forums, do a few searches, and if you still can't find answers to your queries, post a new thread so that everyone may benefit.

The marks for all courses are aligned. :)

Can you elaborate? Do you mean that you're just returned to the login page?

He would need to do very poorly in his exam - so poor that you would receive the minimum possible mark as your moderated assessment mark rather than his exam mark. With regard to your second point, yes, I believe it does matter, because it is the only way of determining the difference between...

Not a chance. :)

It's the median. I suspect the mean would be higher... the distribution should be left-skewed.

The Standard cut-offs are definitely different to the Advanced cut-offs. We don't know by how much.

The number of HSC students on each rank decreases as the UAIs decrease. If you were looking at the UAIs of both current HSC students and the SC students from two years beforehand, there'd be roughly the same number of students on each rank. The median UAI for HSC students is ~66 whereas...

Wow. That's worthy of the Scav Hunt DA list. :D

You can't do that - it won't produce the correct values. Mathematically, it's wrong. Conceptually, it's useful. Yes - but that's only fair, or schools would just give their students really high assessment marks so that they're guaranteed to do well. The HSC exam is used as a statewide...

It's okay, settle down, there's no reason to freak out. :) Remember that your HSC mark is the average of your moderated assessment mark and your examination mark. Your examination mark is ALWAYS your own examination mark. This never changes. In a class of two students, each of them will...
