English Standard Band 6 (2 Viewers)

[Gotei]

Hey guys my Internal ranking is 1/100~ in a school ranked 500ish. I have recieved 100% in all my assesment tasks and in the trial i got 86%.

My aim is to get a band 5 atleast. If i hit around 75/105 what will my mark get scaled up to? will it stay the same or go abit just a little bit.

I'm not too sure with all this aligning stuff. any help would be appreciated

Well the maximum you can get in standard is a band five. If you get a mark higher than 90, it will be scaled down to the 80s. The rationale behind this is that if you are good enough to get a band 6 in standard, you should have done advanced.

But otherwise, not sure. A 75 in advanced would be scaled up to a band 5 for sure.

You can get a band 6 in standard english, how only ~60 people get it every year

@OT: a 75/105 will probably get a band 5 however, it's hard to say what a band 6 will be

Well it's very unlikely then...

i don't think you will have any trouble getting a band 5 OP around 8% of standard candidates get a band 5 or above, so you should be sweet considering your internal.

I feel sorry for you, you must be very gullible. How could you be stupid enough to believe such a thing...

Sure only 0.16% achieved a band 6, but that just shows how ridiculous what you said is. http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/ebos/static/BDHSC_2011_12_15130.html
