lol i'm laughing at the ranking for pittwater house (my school). It says for girls at like 74 and there were 99 people who sat the exam. lol that's the entire year girls and boys.

doesn't make any sense but i don't really care about this ranking system. only brings depression for others.
That column is 'exams sat' not total number of students. Students will have sat for multiple exams.

Maybe. I haven't heard of this being done in HSC year. I however, saw it happen during year 10.
Oh yes, you know the 'tail' is never counted. So in Ruse, if you're like under 98.5 then you're like officially out of our stats or sometihng, considered an outlier. SOmeting lilke that, I'm not sure

No, the median includes them. They're only excluded in the means and stuff of each of our subjects.

But if you consider, 96 allrounders this year. This means our median is somewhere in the allrounders list. And allrounders do pretty darn well (99+ easy).

I'm just glad that 7 Selective Schools outranked SHORE. And that Baulko reclaimed 2nd place.
