yeah yeah the exam was ummm....really @#@#^TY@#%@^ as sumone's already described:mad1:

n e way..i think 2003 math was harder than 2002....so wouldn the cut off for band6 (hopefully) be lower....??(around 90-95??)

cuz i remember minai sayin that he got aligned mark 89 in 2002 with his raw mark 99 (right?? :confused: cant remember exactly sorry)

n e way......no more math.....life is good......LG

From wat people have said round here... A band 6 is usually around 80% allthough this is never certain because the BOS never realsees this information....

Just a thought... all my friends that accelerated (Bar one) got there same mark for the School Certificate as they did for 2 unit maths... freaky eh?

Freaky but I hope that doesn't happen to me, I want band 6! I think I only got 88 or something in the SC... oh but I didn't accellerate so maybe I'm immune lol

i think s/he means 99/120, therefore less than 80%

Alright, last year Lazarus did the solutions to 2U after the exam, and based on those, I got around ~95/120 raw mark, and my aligned exam mark was 89/100

Judging by pplz reactions, this was a harder exam(?) so I think high 90's/120 could be the absolute minimum cutoff for Band 6, but again, this is all speculation

I think i might have scored over 100 (if i didnt make too many careless mistakes) and i really did wanna get Band 6 =\

A mark over 100 should give you at least a low band 6.

and allowing for a few marks of silly mistakes

fuck that exam, that exam was hard.

i think i got somewhere in the 60s if lucky. i didn't have time to check it over. but i think i've made lots of careless mistakes. board of studies is making exams harder every year.

Just to reiterate, if u think u got anywhere between 95-100/120 u should expect at least 90 as an aligned mark, but don't quote me on that

If the markers are lenient, giving me credit for my working out and attempts at evaluating, I could scrape a band 6. *thinking overly optimistic*
