You can't get half marks in terms of your actual HSC and assessment mark. Like, say your overall internal Bio mark winds up being 93.5, it'll get rounded up to 94 anyway, so a 17.5 is as good as an 18 anyway.

Congratulations, those are really good results.

Hey joe_m_2000 thanks a lot!
You're results are really good and you should be proud :) But even if you end up getting a shoddy mark, it won't have a huge negative impact on your overall mark..simply because school's are aware that it's a difficult transition from yr 11-yr 12, hence all assessments aren't weighted heavily (the heaviest weighting I've had so far is 15%- for my english assessment and economics essay (got 18/20).

What are you doing for english? My assessment was a speech on Powerplay (Antony & Cleopatra) --UBER boring.

ive had a few 20% weightings, unfortunately. they are a pain in the arse.
