If I'm the only person in a class, does that mean that my HSC raw mark will be just the average of my internal score and my score in the HSC?
It means (unless there is another process for classes of one I'm not aware of) that your HSC mark will be the same as your aligned mark in the exam. In other words, your HSC exam alone will determine your mark, I believe
Following on from mxrylyn, I'm in a class with only one other student, so how does that impact scaling and marks and stuff? Unrelated note, can't wait to be the only two people sitting in our school hall during the HSC exam lmao
Two possible scenarios!
- If ranked 1st gets the highest mark in the exam, then both HSC marks will be the same as the aligned exam scores. It will be like the other didn't exist.
- If ranked 2nd gets the highest mark in the exam, then the two students get the same mark, namely the average of the two HSC exam marks!
What these examples should show is that internal marks are
meaningless in isolation, it is the ranks that matter
