    English (Advanced) Raw Marks, State Ranks and Estimations

    depending on the quality of the cohort and the marks recieved in comparison to other texts, each text for each module gets scaled differently. So if you pick 'harder' texts, you will get scaled higher.

    Hsc marking.

    yeah i got marked down in one of my economics essays because my stats were a 'little inaccurate', they weren't that off though, +/- 0.5% off for quite obscure ones. And the teacher who marks it marks HSC, and he's generally regarded as being pretty fair indication of how the marking centre marks...

    Raw mark for Adv and SOR1

    ok well assuming your internal is like 85, which might be a stretch in itself, your external will need to be 95 or so, so that's 92~/105

    Exam predictions

    You guys are scaring me with teh whole belonging to place thing, I don't have too many arguments for that =/ I think the belonging essay will be just be a broad one about one of those aspects of belonging (except understanding cause it was done in 2009). My bet is on experiences.

    Raw mark for e4

    rule of thumb for E4, around 5 marks is = to 1 hsc mark. e.g 100/120 -> 96

    When MX2 Gets Very Hard

    no 105 = 97 but anything 94 or higher would just scale to a mark with an atar equivilant of 99.95, so you may as well spend your time on other subjects because there is really little marginal gain

    Physics 2010 Paper

    there were a few hard questions in that, especially the pendulum, JWST and the 8 marker. But I'd say the most of the rest was pretty standard
