Anyone got their half year ranks yet?
You'd think so. But you'd be surprised.That's just generalisation
I wouldn't know. But Ruse is populated with Asians.I'm sure people like nutcracker ain't socially inept. The ones who have sheltered/stereotypical "asian" parents probably fit the trait
yeah o___O! gosh, that's so unfair O_O. these term assessments shouldn't be worth more than 15-25%. but that would mean.. you guys don't have that many assessments?My trials also happens to be worth that much. So basically.. if we screw one of them up we're fucked?
we never get given half yearly ranks >_o. you only know if you came first, because we're usually told the top mark. but then, a lot of people usually tie first o_<.Anyone got their half year ranks yet?
Nothing's amusing, it's just sad.heh. i think i'm beginning to see the amusing side of all these generalisations.
Yeah right... Study groups don't count.and it's not always clean fun, either
yup. definitely sad that you feel you have to attack a group of people you don't even know in what appears to be a pathetic attempt to validate yourself. i try to be polite most of the time but fricking hell people like you piss me off.Nothing's amusing, it's just sad.
Perhaps you should just go back to "not always clean fun" with your matesyup. definitely sad that you feel you have to attack a group of people you don't even know in what appears to be a pathetic attempt to validate yourself. i try to be polite most of the time but fricking hell people like you piss me off.

Nah. We have this enormous assignment about a specific topic we have to do. I've pretty much only got my direction (had to decide on topic) and have borrowed couple of books on it. Gotta read them and start getting my stuff together.
Got holiday homework for English, Modern + Ancient though. Yay. Currently on school computer supposed to be doing my Extension proposal. Didn't work so I hopped on bos.
yes i believe 99.2 is over 95 last time i checked...
LOL wiki James Ruse and it says the median ATAR is 99.2 or 99.6 >_>. shit bricks but the its wikipedia...
I heard the typical median is like 99+ or is that a total misconception? There must be some pretty big bomb-outs if that was true.... Median 99+ being dragged to ave 95.
the average atar at ruse is over 95, so even the "non-elite" students are achieving and have something to show for it at the end of the day.
unless you would rather be dux with a 92.....
Clearing this up. Last year the Media (read 85th kid) in JR got 99.4. The average is closer to ~98ish, mainly because of outliers that get in the 80s and drag it down. In 2008 the lowest was 59. Exclude him and the average jumps to near 99.Hell yeah I'd rather be DUX with 92. Shows I put more effort in than the rest of my grade. I personally think it's better than being a part of a homogenous 99.
All of James Ruse students are "elite". As you posted, their average ATAR proves it.
