hey guys, alot of my friends tell me that if you a ranked first in a subject then in the hsc you take the highest mark from ur class. Is that true?

If you are ranked first in your subject at school, you will take the highest exam mark from your school cohort in that subject as your HSC assessment mark. Your HSC exam mark, which is what you got in the exam (after alignment), stays the same regardless of your rank in the subject.

Aww fuck. I thought that Rank still factored into the HSC exam.

You get the average of your exam mark and your internal mark, so it does have a fair bit of an effect on your final mark.

Extreme example - you're ranked first but you get 70 for your exam. Top mark from your school is 98. You end up with an overall mark of 84 - up 14 from your exam.
