Subject ipt

I'm 6th in ipt, and the differences between my position and second Is two percent. And first by five percent, I believe.

What happens if this what they get in their hsc exam.

1st-90
2-83
3-76
4-74
5-71
6- 88( mine)

Basing this on the trials.

I am ranked 6th- wasn't too good in the assignments.

Would it have a massive impact on me?

thank you


School rank 260.

But I thought, that if the people above you stuffs up, you marks get brought down significantly.

Are you able to provide a short explanation of why?

 

[Queenroot]

You can't explain it in a nutshell. You'll have to so some reading yourself

 

[Recondit]

Is the person coming last an outlier? If not, how much higher is your percent compared to that person's percent?

cos Board of studies said so

This.

Is the person coming last an outlier? If not, how much higher is your percent compared to that person's percent?

out-liers aren't included in the calculation

So with these ranks -

English -8/45
Bio-5/27
Math-4/11
Sor 2-2/27
Modern history -3/18
Ipt 6/18

School rank 240-

What would be my limit?

 

[seventhroot]

if you're asking for an atar estimate: 85.60

assumptions made:
- Advanced English
- 2U Mathematics

 

[Simile]

Alright. What would the maximum atar I could get?

 

[seventhroot]

I don't know you personally; how can a random over the internet answer that?

 

[Simile]

Based on the ranks and school rank?

Yeah ik but if there were no outliers in the cohort, you can estimate the moderated internal mark and so HSC mark if % difference in school assessment mark between OP and last ranked person is given

internal marks dun mean shit

 

[Recondit]

internal marks dun mean shit

Not sure what you mean by that, but if you meant the school cumulative assessment mark or the final overall mark you get for yr 12, these marks are used in the moderation process

the only thing that really matters internally is: ranks and the relative differences between those ranks. NOTHING else
