So why does everyone do them?
Actually, I think this statement is wrong isn't accurate.More people do Modern History, Ancient History & PDH/PE than do Physics and Chemistry.
Family friend got 100 in mx1, wasn't state ranked.Assuming first ranked gets 100%, then for Mathematics, there was 1 student, for Mathematics Extension 1 there was 1 student, for Mathematics Extension 2 there was 1 student, and for General Mathematics, there were 2 students.That's not 20; that's 5.
EDIT: unless you meant overall, which in that case, you'd be right.
I think in this case they didn't get 100% raw mark. For example, one of my friends got 83/84 this year which was reported as 100 but when they calculate state ranks, they go to decimal places so someone that got 84/84 would have beaten him.^Did they not do MX2/not do so well in MX2, because I think they take that into account in ties.
It's clear that only a minority pick subjects for their scaling although the difference in candidature size is quite small.someth1ng:
Yes, I meant to say Business Studies and not Modern History. It still makes the point I was trying to make, doesn't it?
If he's rank 52 with 83/84, wouldn't 51 people be getting 84/84?Mathematics Extension I
