Misadventure! (1 Viewer)

[herbsby]

Haha - hey guys, i was wondering what you think would be the best way to get a misadventure form......... something that wont compromise after HSC parties... haha - im thinking somehow get 'food poisoning' that just makes u heaps sick for 4 days, then i can miss out on ancient! haha
what do u rekon!?

 

[underthesun]

then what test would you get to do? obviously you won't get the same hsc test, or do they make another one for you

 

[Minai]

u get an estimate based on your rank, and how well your cohort does in the exam

u do not get to sit another exam for a subject if u miss it

 

[Duckman]

unless u kicked arse for your assesments mark its prolly not a good idea to claim misadventure

 

[AcCeSs-DeNieD]

theortically, if you happen to have gotten over 90% in a subject and ranked 1st, would it be a good idea to claim misadventure?

There's one problem... you are now relying on maybe HALF your grade to get the marks you need... (relative scaling for each school) Your school has to be good.

Teach them well first... I try.

And then everyone who gets top marks in your school "excuse" themselves from the exams and you're all stuffed...

But I thought it was just relative to how the students in your class go?....or do you mean as in your school being good meaning that the students are also good?

 

[underthesun]

what about the social and ethical issues? the other student's response, calling you an ass, etc.

i rekon itd be worth claiming misadventure - considering my assessment marks were 85% for ancient, but ill be lucky to get 65% in the HSC, coz i havent studied and ancient tis f**ked......hm............ i wonder..... any ideas of HOW to get misadventure?
haha

 

[iptteacherssuck]

what happens if you've been tutored outside and have no assessment marks and call for misadventure?

 

[Lazarus]

I'm fairly certain that even students who study by correspondence or distance education have to undertake assessment tasks.

 

[iptteacherssuck]

nope u dont have to cuz they are not required to hand in assessment marks..

eck. I actually AM sick, and so now I'm worried. I really need to go well in the exams to boost my marks, but I'm having trouble just studying at the moment, I have no idea how I'll hold up in the exam itself. If I concentrate on something for too long, like summarising stuff, my head gets all woozy. lol.

Is it possible, say if I conk out during english, to get a doc's certificate after the exam?

 

[iptteacherssuck]

too risky

cuz other ppl might do that as well cuz ppl do get sick by looking at a Q they havn't done!

it's happened heaps of times lol, too many times to my twin (especially after a maths exam.. ). that happened with her trials and she got an estimated mark for the questions she didnt do.

our year coordinator/director of studies was tellin us that if u conk out durin an HSC exam, they estimate the marks of the questions u didnt do (based on school, the stuff u've done and assessments etc) and if this is lower than ur school assessment mark, they just take ur assessment mark as ur HSC exam mark.

so i spose u win either way.

edit: ps: u'll need a doc's cert too heh
