Just wondering, does anyone here go to a really academic school? Say top 20? If so, how hard have your tests been? Because i go to a selective school and they set tests that absolutely noone can do (highest mark for extension maths was around the 70s...lol) I go to school no. 15....See if you can beat that....

My school is ranked 7th, and I don't think the tests have been THAT hard. There is always someone who gets 100% in every test...even if the average is around 50%...but it really depends on the subject.

11th...(*shifty look*), depends on which subject you do, but the assessments and the exams are almost as equally difficult, but theres always some prodigy who'll get the top mark. Damn all rounders....

What subjects do you do?

In ext1 maths only the 4-Unit people would be expected to consistently get in the 80s/90s. Are you saying that even the 4-unit people get 70s - I always thought that maths test were fairly similar in levels of difficulty - just that some schools are ahead in course content. Having tests too far below/above the HSC level of difficulty would be counter-productive, its just that in Ruse about two thirds of people do 4-unit whereas in some schools no-one does it:p

Yep. Not one person, even out of the 4 unit students, got above 70. The average was around 40-50%. Most brutal exam ever. Our school has always been infamous for setting tests noone can do, supposedly they think it prepares us better for the HSC.......

One of my friends went to a school below 500 and got 98.55. So that goes to show you can kick ass no matter what school you go to.
