Just say someone came near(out of 180) last in english in the internals
But in the externals he/she came top 30(of his school candidature)What happens to the internal mark. Will it be scaled up to or near the external mark since there's a huge difference?
I really screwed up in english so i need domething to boost my confidence

Your moderated assessment mark will be close to the last exam mark.

Your exam mark will be whatever you get in the exam.

As the two are averaged, a high exam mark can compensate (somewhat) for a low assessment mark.

Yes such is the importance of doing well all year not just picking up ypur act around exam times.

ARGH! but then again, you are penalised for not working as hard as you could over the year because your high exam mark is averaged-down due to the low moderatd assessment mark.

ok think, if ur internal mark is 50. then u dont work and in ur exam u get 50. that = 50

but if u work and in ur exam u get 80. that = 65.

so do u want 50 or 65??
