    MATHS EXT 1: advice please

    So I do realise that when you do the hsc course for math, 30% of the exam can be tested on prelim outcomes... I was wondering if a personal will 'struggle' if they don't really perform well in prelim. Like is it 100% essential that you achieve well in the prelim so you can do the hsc subject...

    GENERAL HSC QUERY! help please

    oh really? but sometimes in some subjects no one gets a band 6 even AFTER they align etc. So what if the highest WAS a hsc mark of 89? will they still be put down- atar wise?

    GENERAL HSC QUERY! help please

    Say for example everybody performed low in a certain hsc subject examination due to a hard exam. Like, the highest scores in the whole state were band 5. Will the highest person in the state (say who got 89), still be rewarded in relation to rank? Will it affect the atar just because its low?
