Honestly, I don't fully get it either.
It could have had something to do with how close the top 3 ranks were (1 mark difference internally). My friend who was ranked 2nd came 8th in the State for Modern
If this helps:
ALIGNING gives you an external mark which when averaged with your assessment mark gives you a HSC mark.
I got a HSC mark of 98, checking the UAC A3 table, I could see that for the purposes of the ATAR, that 98 became 100. That's what I'm talking about in terms of scaling.
[edit] And yes, I was told that my raw mark was 100.

SCALING applies to the wierd and mysterious things the UAC does with raw HSC marks.
