Biggest misconception ever. People think they are easier and that HSC markers "throw away marks" only coz we recieve aligned marks, which are higher than raw marks. We recieve raw marks for trials and thus people think the the trials were harder as they are lower.

Quite true. It really does depend on the difficulty of your trial, and whether or not your teacher aligns your marks or not. My maths teacher always aligns our marks to a 65 average whereas English will just give us our raw marks. Typically though you can compare your trials to past HSC's and decide for yourself whether they'll be easier or harder. In my case, school sets uber hard trials so it'd be fair to say the hsc will be easier.
