Mathematics Extension 2 has very high peforming students. About 80% of students doing the course get into the top 2 bands. Just a simple pass in that course would mean a very low ranking.HSC_sUcKsSsS said:like my mate checked out sam and a pass in 4u maths = very low uai? though the other subjects are quite good. whats going on?
well... your teacher is probably wrong because BOS don't do the scalling. UAC does.MaryJ_ said:A teacher at our school gives us UAI estimates according to some BOS book on scaling, and she basically said that SAM is one of the worst estimaters around. For me, SAM was about 10 points lower than my estimate from school. People who completed their HSC last year also said that SAM was pretty far off. Anyways, it doesn't hurt to get a kick in the butt telling you to work harder
