I already got my report from school. So I can assume they will be the same anyway?

What do we do if the ranks are wrong.

I saw a copy of my report before it was published, and my English rank was like towards the bottom. I got depressed for a while (because I do have a strong cohort, so despite raw being 76% I thought everyone did better and hence my rank dropped) then calculated my friends raw's which were lower than mine and threw a hissy fit. Demanded that my rank got changed or I'll sue.

Lol, turns out she put in 2 marks from assessment tasks into the computer wrong.

So what happens if my school didnt give me ranks for some subjects? Isnt that sorta pointless cos now i cant check if theyre correct?

 

[RivalryofTroll]

Assessment RANKS (INTERNALS) will be pulling me up (for every single sub, it's gonna be internal > external)

Anyways, hopefully I get my correct ranks :/

Talk to the school first. If you are still convinced there is an error, you can appeal to BOS. The appeal form is available from the school.

I wish that was the case for me, at least you have a boss cohort. If i stuffed up externals, i have no one to depend on lol

I understand everything about ATAR and scaling, but I dont understand why a strong cohort will 'pull you up.' If i go to ruse and come 100th, then that is actually really good and i'd probably still get a high 98 or 99. But if I went to a 50th ranked school I'd do pretty much the same in my internals and externals and instead of 100th i'd be top 5 in everything and would then hopefully get a high 98 or 99.

The only way a strong cohort is good, is if the cohort do significantly better than last year or better than expected. Then it will make a difference, but going to a school that is consistently good shouldnt make a massive difference. If you fk up you come 150th, but you woulda fked up at a poorer school too, just woulda come 20th instead of the top5 you were hoping for.
