Title: Raw marks
Post by: paigek3 on September 29, 2017, 03:35:39 pm
I hope this question makes sense otherwise I probably have not grasped the whole scaling thing as well as I thought I have  ;D

What Raw marks do I need in PDHPE and Legal to hit a 90, and to hit a 45 in ext 1 and 2 english?

Seems like you've grasped it! ;)

You can find a database of raw marks, and what they aligned to as a HSC Exam Mark - Here ;D

How accurate is it??? Cause for E1 a 37 to a 45 sounds like a huge jump, but would that mean that individual most likely had a strong cohort? Cause my cohort is quite small so I don't know how strong it would be...

Same question as above for an 85 to a 92 for Legal, and 89.50 to a 95 for PD  :o

These alignments are NESA taking your raw exam scores and mapping them to Band cut-offs: They are totally accurate (people upload their mark reports if they pay for one) and don't have anything to do with your schools cohort ;D

Oh my that is amazing to hear!!

So basically to hit the 90s in legal I’ll be looking at getting around a 85 as a raw? Also how much do getting your raw marks even cost?

NESA has a web page if you would like to go further in depth, but from experience, I think they were around $6-$7 each
