I'm not going to get E4s for my extension subjects but will likely get Band 6s for my regular 2 unit subjects, which indicates that I try hard but am too dumb to perform well in challenging subjects (which is unfortunately somewhat true). And that is embarrassing and sad for me so I'd rather people just assume that there was an administrative error, or that I didn't try at all in the HSC such that my intelligence remains unknown.
TBH I hope NESA gets rid of this database as it is just a way to embarrass and shame those who don't do well. It's quite demoralising to put these 'bands' as limits on these things - I'm demotivated for English extension 1 as I already know that I can't get an E4 due to internal marks, and though I can still get a not-terrible mark, it feels equivalent to a terrible mark since it is not an E4 (most people get E4s in this subject).

yo icl it really isn't that deep imo

getting band 6 on ur 2u but not e4 on ur ext is pretty chill
it means you invested ur time properly

ur 2u subjects are more important than ur ext subjects

No, how will NESA prove that it's you? Some one out of jealousy could delete your band 6 record just cause they hate you or something if they allowed people to delete stuff
