Down.. IF.. hypothetically if everyone in the entire cohort (including yourself) aced the HSC exam?

Lets say person A slacked off the entire year, realized "oh shet"... and then persuaded his 8 man class to all undergo rigorous perfectionist training to get 90+ in the exams.

Will the BOS specifically look at person A, and say "ho very bad boi, try to do good too late, lets nerf him" OR... Is the bored of study just a machine that takes in internal marks, moderates based on external results of the cohort, averages with external scaled mark and spits out a HSC mark.

Once your internal ranks are locked, there is no going back... its all a matter of externals... You can beat your cohorts in the external, however their internal mark will still be higher than yours... I'm confused myself at this kinda stuff so just let it be and do your best...

If everyone in your grade aced the HSC exams, then everyone at your school would receive the same HSC mark.

ie. You'd all get 100 in every subject and be state rankers, your rank won't change anything.

(The BoS is a machine)

Just a quick question on the subject, could it be possible if two students, say ranked 1st and second internally, to get a same aligned assessment mark?

@OP: Yes. The final subject mark will be somewhere between your aligned HSC exam mark and aligned assessment mark.
