Lazarus does

This is what he provided :

Report on the Scaling of the 2001 NSW HSC

Any further questions should be directed to him


Also, use SAM to predict your UAI. It's on the front page

we may not be able to give you a prediction, but we can however see wht your marks WOULD HAVE BEEN if you had sat the HSC during year 2001-03

I'm confused, if certain schools get scaled a bit more etc.
How can SAM take that into consideration when predicting your UAI?

No one can really predict UAIs. We can only reduce the range of what you may think your UAI may fall under.

Schools do not get scaled more than others. The School is not taken into account when calculating the UAI.

That is what they say, but that is not I believe.

Would you care to explain how they scale the schools then?

The only thing the board of studies and UAC use are the marks from the HSC exam, and the marks received from the school (which are moderated based on the candidatures HSC performance).

The reason why top schools usually remain top schools is because they enrol the more acedemic students, and thus will usually always end up being better than the lower schools. This gives the impression that top schools get 'scaled' higher.

This is certainly not true.
