Yes calls went out. and people aren't supposed to say whether they got one. No the list isn;t up, itll be up tomorrow

Okay, rightio.
Some people we expected to attain 1st didn't and others did. People who received 1st can't reveal in the thread due to BOS regulations and jazz, so you have to pm them.

This question is probably stupid.. but for state rankings and that distinguished achievers list thing, do they count just the external HSC mark or the cumulative one?

They look at your external first then they look into your internal results.

So, if you got 120 and someone got 120, they look into your internal results to rank people.

About distinguished list, it's def based on both.

Both together

I've checked it up.

The Top Achievers in a Course List includes the names and teaching schools of those students in each course who achieve Band 6 or Band E4, as appropriate, and are placed in the top group (see following table). They are ranked firstly by their HSC mark and secondly by the average of the examination mark and the moderated assessment awarded for the course. In the case of extension courses, marks awarded for other courses in the subject area are also taken into consideration.

HSC mark is overall mark

yep, i see.

 

[Timothy.Siu]

yeah, i've asked that before because i was unsure, but it seems fair, so u cant just get a state ranking out of nowhere, like somehow come last in your school but get full marks in the external and get a state rank

 

[treehat]

cool, thank you

yeah

I agree. it's fair to rank people based on hsc because hsc is the only exam where everyone in the state gets put on the same scale.

Hmm, I wonder what they do with people who earned identical HSC marks for Extension History then. Would someone who does 5u History, therefore, have an advantage over someone who does 3u?

nope, it shud just be a tie

edit: another question sorta on topic, how do they compare extension subjects if one person did accelerated for the normal course, e.g. did modern history a year earlier than another person but they both got 50/50 for ext. hist

depends on how well they went in the other u's

 

[dp624]

yeah

But moderation is the process which puts everyone on the same scale.. so it's perfectly fair to use overall mark

good question. Probs a tie then; it's really incomparable if they did different HSC exams for Modern.

Anyone know when school ranks come out?
