This is not correct. Although that method may be used by other institutions in other circumstances, it is not used by the Board of Studies NSW to moderate raw school assessment marks. The moderating procedure uses a quadratic function and is non-linear. You can verify that the transformation...

I've unstuck this thread so people don't confuse it with the 2010 thread.

No. You received your offer in 2009, so you'd need to look at the 2009 list.

You can search for offers made in Jan 2010 here. To search by course code, you just type in the code (e.g. 511801 for combined law at usyd) and the offers should appear.

The SMH list doesn't have correct course names, universities, ATAR cut-offs or vacancies.

As ajdlinux said, the course names in the old csv file are wrong - the correct course name for a particular course code can be found using UAC's course search.

If you complete Extension 2 this year, your Extension 1 mark from last year will be doubled and your Mathematics mark from last year will be ignored.

The nice people at SMH appear to have been inspired by this creation and have released their own 2010 search interface here: University offers You can only search by name rather than by course, but we might be able to set that up ourselves.

It sounds like everyone in your class was in the same boat, and that you haven't suffered any special disadvantage relative to the other students in your class. Whether you received 60s or 80s at school doesn't matter - what's important is your position in your class. If your class rank is...

I think s 18A (which expressly deals with the publication of results of HSC exams and related assessments) would be relevant to this question, and probably also relevant to the question of whether there is a prohibition on disclosure. Unfortunately the recent amendments to the education...

I agree that it sounds like a demand, but the truth is that the Board is not empowered to make demands at large. It only has the powers conferred upon it by the Education Act, such as the power to make rules approved by the Minister with respect to the exercise of the Board's functions (s131)...

With respect, I think this is misleading. BOSBOY made a similar comment here. Whilst the Board advises schools not to provide students with the total assessment mark submitted to the Board (because the mark is subject to moderation), schools are not prevented from providing that information...

They're up now - they always go online at the same time as the ranks.

Re: Top 100 Schools - Daily Telegraph The media obtain that information from the Board. These lists have been published by the Daily Telegraph.

re: ATAR Statistics & Scaling Report 2009 There's a summary of the 2008 statistics here.

Scaling report Preliminary report: here. Tables: here. This year (2009) Across the ACT and NSW this year, 52,402 students were eligible for an ATAR with 48 students receiving the top rank of 99.95. Of the top scorers, 25 students were female and 23 were male and came from a mix of...

There's nothing surprising about this. An aligned mark of 70 in chemistry last year would have put you in the bottom 30% of the state. Despite this, your scaled mark (50/100) would have been about average. If anything, you'd expect the scaled mark to have been lower. At the end of the...
