Well I think inappropriate in terms of the syllabus requirements set - ie. certain components of the syllabus have a minimum/maximum OVERALL weighting for internal assessment. Something to do with that I think.
But, also.. if the school sets a research assignment at 50% weighting or something.. then that would be looked into perhaps.
I see. I don't believe it should be a problem, thanks.

All I'm concerned is... if there is a change to rank orders in a particular class, and someone's appeal is successful... would we be notified??

I was thinking about that. Somehow, I doubt it...perhaps you will just see the change in your rank order if you happen to check it again.

Mine's wrong

i came =1st in advanced english
n its saying i came 2

will this make a big difference???

should i contest it

its the only course i really care about

I heard about something similar at my school, in 2 unit religion two people tied first the marks difference was marginal ie >1.0, so they both recieve medals but the teachers felt it was best to seperate them when entering them into the BOS as 1 and 2 to give them the best chance of getting a better mark

they send in marks to 2 decimal places, there can't be any equal placings

In 17 years of teaching HSC I have never seen marks sent in to 2 decimal places and have regularly sent in equal places (including last year with equal firsts).

I know for a fact that a friend and I got the same rank for English from our Rank Order Notices.

How can there be so much talk about 'wrong' rankings, when teachers are not allowed to reveal them to us?

yea i talked to my teacher and no joke

0.01

difference between us who tied on 1st

BUT...

there were 3 tied on 4th
and now theirs says
1- 4th
and 2 5ths
so you can still have equal placings


but a difference of 0.01 wont make that much of a difference will it???
