I've heard that too, bout 10 uniter's not doing that well and everything, but i think this occurs more because of generasl trends in the type of students picking certain numbers of units. people who are wanting to bludge and not really trying to excel, will always do 10 units as its easier...
the highest anyone got in bus st last year was 98, so only scaled down one mark. Anyway, if you could get scaled mark 97 in each mark, your TER would be 485, which is a 100 UAI anyway. So dont worry bout the top scaled mark thing.
Also, top scaled mark, or scaled mean, only provide information...
might be too hard to calculate the scaling, because so few students do it that its impossible for bos to estimate the scaling curve and give accurate scaled marks for each hsc mark in the sub.
I dunno, just a possibility. Maybe email them or sumthin and ask?
yeh, who would have guessed that him saying his rank was 1 out of 45, meant that his rank was first out of around 45 people! amazing huh! lol im just ribbing you.
Anyway, be careful with estimation as modern history, business studies and ancient history arent the best scalers, but as long as...
{Sparta is a DAM
Democracy (Apella...V Erenburg or assesbly)
Autocracy (Gourusia or filled with gerontes)
Monarchy( the kings the agidae and euripontidae)}
<------------Just on that, its really more DAM U, because it could also be expressed (and was so by Plutarch) as being an oligarchy...
hey ahen, im doing ancient history for yr 12 and were doing sparta too! Is it an interesting/hard topic? we started about a week ago and it seems all right.
:)im going to be a spartan scholar yay@!
Business scaling curve is kinda funny, its very poor for low to mid-high scores, but for band 6, its scaling is actually quite good. For example, a 91 in business is the equivalent of 90 in ecos after scaling, and physics is like a 89. So for the higher scores the scaling of business is much better
yeh we gotta do sport too: I do RAW its called, its like boxing (just sparring), running fitness and swimming rolled into one. Its good! Gives a break from school
Guy at our school last year got 99.55 with business studies being his top subbie (scaled as well as raw, atleast based on the scaling of the previous year which would be accurate for bus st. because so many people doing it reduces yearly fluctuations in the scaling curve) so with business...
aint a yr 12'er but i know so many ppl to have gone through...
I remember you saying your school was pretty high ( i think you said 100sumthin?) in which case those aint bad results. If i was to take a punt, i rekon your heading for 65-73, though this really is just a guess based on experiences...
barkers a gud school, gud rank, so your internal scores in the 60% range should be moderated up (i would expect) though it changes yearly, but the major drawback is english. If you study ur FKN ass off and get middle rank for your school, your overall rank could be brought bak to within the top...
