Yeah my friend got a 96 with no band 6s.i was looking at the honour roll and i was wondering, is it possible for a student to receive an atar above 90 without having any band 6's? like theyre not mentioned but they got an atar above 90? idk if im making sense but yeah im just curious
Yep, like I put 89 for the Big 4 (Maths E2, Chem Phys and English) 97.XX so yeah there’s people with potentially less B6 that scored higherguys question, how come marks don’t reflect atar? I got 4 b6s however my atar is lower than some people who got 2-3... is it because I got them in humanities subjects or...?
How? A band 6 in society and culture and physics aren't the same. Imo those types of subjects still scale to well and encourage people choosing them because they are far easier then others and let's be honest, they are completely useless. Same with languages.gotcha that makes sense...feels bad though haha
Do languages scale well?How? A band 6 in society and culture and physics aren't the same. Imo those types of subjects still scale to well and encourage people choosing them because they are far easier then others and let's be honest, they are completely useless. Same with languages.
Almost all the languages scale about the same or slightly better then physics and chemDo languages scale well?
Ohh okay thank youAlmost all the languages scale about the same or slightly better then physics and chem
Hello!
Can someone please explain how the UNSW access scheme works? Do we need to lodge an application, or is it automatic, and how many points are awarded based on the disadvantage suffered? Thank you!!
:/ tbh each to their own I guess, I don’t think it’s fair to say they’re useless you just don’t care about them similarly to how most standard maths students would think calculus is uselessHow?

yeah I’m wondering this too... how are our points added (not just for unsw but other unis too) like do they do it automatically?Hello!

At least with languages, they are typically not deliberately incorrectly taught unlike some parts of the Physics course due to the HSC syllabus requirements. Also, the ability to speak and write another language is considered more useful in the employment market.How? A band 6 in society and culture and physics aren't the same.

I just did a name check on the state ranks and it looks like two state rankers attended the BoS trials in Maths and one state ranker attended the BoS trials in Chemistry.Has anyone come first in a subject?
Or any state ranks?
i called nesa the day we got hsc back and they said that your mark can be reduced if you get a raw marks report, cause that comes with a results check. but they said that the chances of a mistake being found are also extremely lowAre there any disadvantages of buying your HSC paper from NESA? Could it result in a lower examination mark? Anyone with a personal experience to this?
