Correct me if I'm wrong, but nothing scales up in the HSC. Except MX1 and MX2.

MX1 doesn't scale up brother, it stays flat. At the 98%+ range quite a lot scales up though. But only at that high range and not Bio.

everything scales down depending on how well you do in relation to the rest of the state.
Ext maths 1 and 2 scales down if you bomb out and fail.

EDIT:
who cares if it scales up or not =.= just do your best. its not as if a band 6 isnt possible in bio.

Extension 1 will remain stable unless you're in like the bottom 8% of the state... -_-

And MX2 like NEVER scales down... Your poor performance will be compensated for by scaling.

Back to topic: Biology scales rather average in comparison to other subjects... Lower than Chemistry and Physics as the sciences.

I thought every subject scales up if you do well in it... same for Biology. Biology is also not capped, so I think it is a decent subject.
