Could people predict their HSC results?

[Julmus00]

Hello, for those of you who have already done the HSC, did your marks come back higher or lower than you expected them?

I just feel like with all this moderating and aligning and the fact random people that aren’t your teachers are marking it, it makes it difficult to estimate what you can achieve

Hey! Mine personally came back higher than I expected, but not insanely higher. Like, I was super pleasantly surprised, but I wasn't in any way thinking "How is this possible."

I think to get anything crazily different from expectation is pretty rare, if you understand the system at least (here is a guide if you were unclear on any of it) would be keen to hear others thoughts on this though!
