Well done. Congratulate yourself, the exam is over! :)

Sorry I just had to add... I don't know about you guys.. but whenever I estimate low marks, I get high marks. And when I estimate high marks, I get low marks. Optimism always gets me. :(

By the sounds of things you will probably get boosted up coz everyone found the exam tough, so a mark of 78% will probably put u in the top end of the marks.

I think I got at least 80, not sure though, as I don't remember all my answers, and I think I made a bunch of silly mistakes. Oh well, 80's is good if I get that so not complaining.

So stoked. I wrote the answers on my paper after i finished and marked em off the answers on this site. Ended up getting 73% and made some aweful mistakes in multiple choice section so i could have gotten 81% if i read the question carefully, which i never do.

I shoudla have learnt to read the question by yr12 huh?

With raw marks, i'm looking at 84-87ish. I'm ranked 1st with 89% internal so I have NO idea what that'd get scaled to. Im a bit bummed that I didn't hit a 90+ raw coz I REALLY wanted one to give my uai a bit of a boost. Can anyone guesstimate what they think that raw mark will look like as a hsc mark?
Hey if u got 89% internal n HSC mark of lets say 85% than your scaled mark would be around i'd say 87%. But also u need to take into consideration also the scaling n everything. Oh and plus How did u know your final mark was 89%. Does it show on your report because its not suppose to. Plus, this internal mark gets scaled up from 89 usually to about 92% probably. So yeah good luck

It's not hard to work out your internal assessment marks.

Trials - 40%
Half yearlies - 30%
In class test - 10%
In class test - 10%
Assignment - 10%

Multiply whatever you get in each task by the task's weighting and wahlahhhh you have your assessment mark :)

E.G. Trials - 86/100 x 40 = 34.4%
