Biology raw marks (2 Viewers)

[Jacob888]

Hi, just interested to see what other people's raw and aligned marks were for bio
I got 82 raw > 83 TWM > 86 hsc mark

 

[Parvee]

uhm are you sure thats correct?

82 raw is usually a b6

 

[Jacob888]

Yeah it's right. That's what I thought as well, maybe the scaling was bad this year for bio or is it possible they made a mistake?

Looks like the aligning was shocking for all sciences this year...

My 78 aligned to an 86. Which option did you do?

 

[Jacob888]

Communication, which probably explains it

 

[mombihum]

Does communication scale bad?

I thought all aligning of all sciences was good this year

It was at the least very bad for physics and chem, according to others who have posted their raw marks. A 74 in physics raw aligned to 83 exam mark this year. Usually low 70's in physics goes to high 80's...

Ahh. So what would be someone's raw mark like if they got mid b6?

anywhere from 88 - 93

Nice

I know I sound like a noob, but can someone please explain to me the difference between raw marks and TWM.

Thanks

Band 6 cut-offs:

Chem: 76/100 I'm guessing.

Physics: 84/100 I'm guessing.

Biology: 86/100 I'm guessing.

Physics and Biology are shocking. Chemistry was alright.

LOL just realised 2 unit maths would have been better then all of them...

Even MX1 was redic. 51/70 got a 93.

Damn that's good... What would the cut off then have been? 46? 47?

Since different schools do different options, and different options have different difficulties, the TWM is your relative mark to everyone else after the options have been scaled.

And Raw marks are before the options have been scaled.

Ohh okaay thanks

I'm awaiting my state rank correction
