.. I have a bad feeling about this. I wonder how many results vcaa/vtac fucked up. Now I'm sure they screwed up mine.

That's not how it works. You're lowest out of the three would just be forced to contribute 10% (assuming those maths are your highest).

Yea, I know that. my further is higher than my physics but further is counted as 10%. Im still puzzled how my friend could have beaten me when i got higher Raw.

if this is seriously true, vcaa has serious problems.
are you 100% sure? not mistaking anything?

if you are sure, then contact your principal.

as if a higher raw scales to a lower score.

wait did your friend get special consideration or whatever its called. derived score ? etc
