therese in quandry - question for lazarus re SAM 2004
thanks heaps Lazarus for all your work and past helpful advice. I used SAM 2004 this morning only to get more confused. After entering my HSC marks, the Results Profile showed my scaled marks out of 50. Now past 'Scaling of Courses' indicated that English Ext 1 & 2, Maths, Maths Ext 1, Modern History and Physics would ALL be scaled UP. SAM 2004 shows this happening only for Maths Ext 1. Why? Also, my disappointment at getting only 80 in English Advanced was further dampened by a scaled mark of 31.8/50 - a scale drop of 8.2 marks, nothing like 2001,2002 & 2003. Why again? Can you offer some help - and soon?
