Sorry redruM - it's not just the exam mark. You need to have the best HSC mark. Generally, this means that you need to be ranked first in your school class, and then to obtain the top exam mark in the state.

Sanchez has the right idea. :) Notice that if you enter sets of results for different years such that the course percentiles (and not necessarily the marks) are the same in each year, the UAIs are roughly equivalent. The course percentile refers to your position or rank in the state...

You'll receive whatever you get in the exam as your exam mark. His moderated assessment mark will be equal to the top exam mark, and yours will be extremely close behind. For examples: www.boredofstudies.org/moderate.php

Your moderated assessment mark won't be exactly equal to the fourth highest exam mark, but if the relative differences between students are roughly the same as they were for your internal assessments, it should be similar. See this thread for further details. Yes, it is fair.

Those two scenarios are the actual methods used by the Board to handle 'special cases'. :)

It's unlikely that you'll receive any sort of special consideration for stress or depression unless you have a specific condition diagnosed by a medical/psychiatric expert.

Such matters are resolved at the school's discretion. You should consult your principal if you feel that you have been unfairly disadvantaged in some way. The Board is unlikely to intervene. The level of precision used to record internal marks is also school-specific. The Board rounds all...

That would be true for 2003, but not for 2002 or 2001. SAM tells you why - the scaled mark for Chemistry is slightly higher (+0.8) than the scaled mark for Latin Continuers. This simply means that if you were competing against the candidature from 2003, it would have been just slightly harder...

Just remember that aligning (as dictated by those raw band cut-offs) has nothing to do with UAIs.

I suppose it's arguable... it's not really the intuitive characterisation of the law, though. As far as I'm aware, there is no distinction between "trespass to chattels" and the torts of conversion and detinue - the latter are simply the torts that correspond to the former. The "you break it...

You really can't quantitatively state how much any given mark will be scaled up or down. The figures on the course scaling page indicate how marks in the course were scaled on average. You could use the following qualitative table as a rough guide: <code> Loading &nbsp; &nbsp; Meaning...

The aligned HSC mark, which is what SAM accepts, should be the average of your aligned examination mark and your moderated school assessment mark (which is more or less your raw assessment mark once it has been aligned). I suppose it can seem a little confusing. As an alternative, you could...

They could differ significantly. No UAI calculator accepts raw marks. See this thread on how to estimate your aligned marks.

The Board supplies the following marks to the Technical Committee on Scaling: Raw examination marks - these are the actual figures awarded by the HSC markers. Initial moderated assessment marks - these are your raw school assessment marks after they have been moderated to conform to the...

There are a few potential tortious actions... nothing major though. I've written up the first few things that came to mind when I read through your post - you'll want to investigate further though. Contract This scenario is covered by standard contract law - as SantaSlayer said, the display of...

Yes - TERs are lower than their corresponding UAIs. The UAI Technical Report includes a table of UAI equivalences for selected TERs for the years 1993, 1996 and 1997: <code> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ---------- UAI ---------- &nbsp;TER &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 1993&nbsp; &nbsp...

No - your individual marks are not considered.

You can calculate moderated assessment marks using this prototype: www.boredofstudies.org/moderate.php Your final HSC mark is the average of your moderated assessment mark and your examination mark.
