It's a tough call, and although you SHOULD get an interview, I've had cases where people have not gotten in, e.g. I know two people with 99.95 UAI with 75th percentile and 60-somethingth percentile not even get an interview. Good luck nonetheless! :)

LOL I'm thar I'm thar!

It's not actually remarking the papers though. It's just making sure all your marks have been added correctly. So it doesn't check the quality of an essay; rather, it checks that the marks you received in that section was actually added onto your total. @ Simonloo, get your papers rechecked...

Don't leave.

Lol, very pessimistic of your school to think that 105/105 = 98.

I think she meant first in her school.

I would hazard to say that a 97/105 would be 96/100 aligned.

97-98/105 = 93% raw. You're losing your touch there, mate. =P

Yeah lol.

Agreed. I don't want to sound immodest or something, but honestly, I was accepted into two top ten selective schools but turned them down. Instead, I graduated from a top fifty school (which is good no less), and got captain, dux, $4800 in money and the opportunity to extend myself in ways I'd...

Hello fellow Seftoner.

Everyone's nervous about this... Your school's marking may correlate to the board's marking too, just that you mightn't have performed as well as expected for the HSC. Until results come out, I don't think there's any use worrying. OMGRESULTSINONLYAFEWDAYSAHHHH.

I'm fairly certain that they would compare essays and writing flair, as opposed to differentiating candidates on the sole basis of internal marks which would be wholly inadequate and unfair.

No, you have misunderstood the system. Just because you got a 99 in advanced English does not mean that this 99 will appear as your internal assessment mark. In fact, if you got 99 and were ranked first, then you would receive the highest examination mark received by your cohort as your...

I can imagine all of us agonising over BOS.

It's not that big a tragedy, dp. =P

Their internal marks are not considered. Rather, internal ranks.

Why won't you be there? (Or will you?) I thought you would've topped something.

I'd be lying if I said that I gave 100%.

Sorry to disappoint you but they're not currently offering 102UAI.
