rank or assesment mark (1 Viewer)

[ehung]

Hi ppl, I knoe this has been asked a few times but just wondering in school, are you aiming for a higher rank or a high mark/raw assesment mark?
Because Oakhill (my school) is ranked like 112 in 03'.
And in my Business report, the highest was 25/30 about 83%.
and my rank will probably go down to 12=> 7-8. If i kill the trials and come top 3, how will that be compared to other top school's ?

Rank is more important. try to get higher rank. In order to achieve high ranks, you need high assessment marks anyway....So go for both!

my 2cents: High School Rank WITH High HSC Exam Mark

Factors not included (technically) are: which school you attend; what's the last digit of your student number; what your hair colour; what individual marks you get for your business subject (they care the <i>relative</i> marks between students, which determines your rank) and the list goes forever...

I've been answering this type of question in this tone a few times hope it entertains you.

But remember that even a good rank may not necessarily mean you will attain a high HSC mark.

You'd need to also to some extent look at the marks to see your progress and acedemic level.
