i think from SAM, 95 meant the top 2.5% of the state

the scaling is ok if you get above 90, but once you are below that, the scaling is really bad :(

if you really want to get 100, i suggest you have a private talk with Lazarus. He knows more about scaling/hsc system than all of us put together. :)

and good luck, 100 is not easy. but then you already know that.

If u are ranked first with an assessment mark of 95..and some1 else is ranked 2nd with a mark of 94...and u two go in the exam...n that person gets a higher EXAM mark then u...u'd be given their Exam mark as ur assessment mark.

E.g.

Person X:
skool assessment mark: 95

Exam mark: 91
Moderated Skool assessment mark: 93
HSC Mark: 92

Person Y:
Skool assessment mark: 94

Exam Mark: 93
Moderated Skool assessment mark: 91
HSC mark: 92

May be i have not given a very good example...but i'd say ranking above some1 means that if in case u get a lower exam mark than them..u don't have to worry too much since ur moderated skool assessment mark will be pulled up because of your ranking.

you can actually never find out how much your raw exam mark changes, however you can see what the hsc mark scales to for uai calculation, and that scaling is not very good...
