Firstly, don't stay in that mindset for the rest of the year otherwise your mindset, more than your marks, will affect you. Secondly, it's only the start of 2013, you have room to improve. Ask your teacher or tutor on where you went wrong, target/practise your weakness and seek to do better next time round.

You're on the road to nowhere. Just joking, uh it may be difficult to catch up again but its still early days. What was the weighting of the assessment task? Year 11 is designed for these mistakes -.- just start being consistent and don't treat it like a joke (I'm not implying you are, but just reminding you).

Well we don't even know the weighting of the task and how your peers performed. Besides that, it's just one assesment (most likely not weighted heavily) of one subject out of 5 that will count to your ATAR. Just move on and take that mark as a wake up call in a way.

OP, you're fine. 11/20 isn't horrible (just not good), but it's easily recoverable from.

For my HSC last year I paid for my raw marks. I found out I got a mark of 9/20 for my Cloudstreet (Module B) essay and still managed to get an overall HSC mark of 90 for English Advanced.
You'll be fine, stop stressing. You don't need 19/20 for everything.

Your assessment marks don't even matter, it's your rank. You get your assessment mark from your rank in the exam.

There is a big difference between internal and external marks at most schools.

OMG I got 11/20 I'm gonna shoot myself my life is a failure.
Harden the fuck up. Jeez. You still got at least 70% of your internals to do (which only contributes to your internal school rank), and your externals make up 50%.

My Advanced english teacher marks the HSC and she said that the average mark is usually about 11/12.

You can't be serious. That means most of the state would have gotten 90%. I don't think so......

You have to consider a range of things before you make a declaration like that. First look at the weighting of the task, if it was 10% then it hardly makes any difference. You also have to look at how you did in relation to your own cohort. Yes you may have gotten an 11 but the highest mark may have only been a 17 or in other words look at how difficult the task actually was. Finally the average mark for a student is around that point. So just chill and keep working at it.
