Just curious, how come you didn't get a state rank for ext 1 considering you did get 100?

I am not 100% sure about this but I think it's because a lot of students (well to be more precise more than 10) get 100, they look at your external mark and if it's the same as another students, they look at your internal mark and all that, I can't exactly remember and there are tiebreakers involved in it

There's someone on this forum who got 97 for English Advanced and was pretty close to state ranking it (and 97 is usually the state ranking mark)

Yeah, a lot more than 10 students get 100 for 3U every year. If more than 10 students get 100 internal mark and 100% raw exam mark, the Board of Studies uses other means to pick which papers are the top 10 in the state (for example, they look at the conciseness of your answers).

The only thing between you and that state rank is your handwriting.

Hi Jaden,

My son is in year 12, he needs some help with physics, I live close to USYD, can you tutoring him? I will discuss the details if you have time for him.
