doesn't a subject get scaled higher if more people do well in that particular subject? e.g in extension 2 maths, lots of ppl do good so it scales high?

I think its the opposite; if less people do well in a subject that means the paper was hard & it scales better.

Tip: start studying for IPT a week b4 the exam and you're sweet.

I only started study 2 days b4 the test = stupid. Yet i still should have done better than 90 if i didnt make such foolish errors.

IPT is all about concepts & seeing the bigger picture of how all the parts work together for a purpose.

See.. i should've got 95++++

I'm a little disapointed with mine but I suppose that's what happens when you stuff up trials because your timetables awful.

Anyway didn't do too badly and apparently I wouldn't have got band 6 anyhow as I came 2nd and the person who came first didn't get on the honour roll.

I got 89.
