You wont necessarily get the 14th highest exam mark. Your marks will get shifted up or down so that the mean of your new internal marks equals the mean of the external marksNot exactly?
All I know is that your internal mark is calculated based on your rank and how well your cohort goes in the external exam (so if you're ranked 14th you'll get the 14th highest mark in your cohort). Your external mark is purely based on your performance in the external exam but it's an aligned mark, not a raw mark (eg. 70 raw mark in the exam may go up to a 90 as your final external mark). How much your mark gets aligned depends on the subject's scaling
This may not be fully correct, but hope this helps!

Yep as stated it won't exactly be the 14th highest, but it should be close-ish to it.You wont necessarily get the 14th highest exam mark. Your marks will get shifted up or down so that the mean of your new internal marks equals the mean of the external marks
Because no one has disputed me, can I assume what I stated in the original post ^ as the truth?Is it true if you get super high in the HSC, but your internal rank/mark is mediocre or bad, they align the HSC mark to match the external result?
Oh that's what I used to think, but then I also heard that a significant difference in your external mark as opposed to your internal affects things as wellNot exactly?

I don't get what you mean by HSC mark and external result?Is it true if you get super high in the HSC, but your internal rank/mark is mediocre or bad, they align the HSC mark to match the external result?
