Humanities scaling was boss this year
Hardly, it did worse than last year on the whole.
I have no idea how to understand the tables. Can you tell me how Eco scaling was please
Better than last year if you are at the higher end.
mathematics scaling <3
it's amazing
Scaled well, but 2012 scaled better than 2013 (for Mathematics).
MX1 and MX2 scaled better than last year though.
Maths scaled really well. I think I got in the low 70s which aligned/scaled to 88.
That is not scaling. You are talking about aligning which is a completely different process to scaling. Scaling is performed to compare Student A's set of subjects to Student B's set of subjects. Aligning is performed to standardise the marks in accordance to Bands, where if a certain mark meets a borderline Band 6 response, that mark is aligned to 90. The aligning process has zero impact on the ATAR and scaling process.

On the whole, from what I can see, all mainstream subjects scaled similarly to last year.
As a side note, these figures are pretty useless. You can't really do anything with them; they merely add up to form your aggregate and that turns into your ATAR.
