hey, I got a 46 for pe,
apparently next year pe gets scaled up by 1 or 2 because it turns into a science.
apparently its scaled down by 1 this year.
so does pe get scaled up next year?
and if so, will I be scaled up then, or scaled down this year?
-
if u did pe this year, it will scale according to 2010 scaling report, ie. NOT next year's scaling

firstly well done on your score good effort :) im doing it next year so hopefully i can do same, pm if you have any advice :)
and i have heard about that marking up as welll...but how do you actually no for sure and doesnt biology get marked down and thts a sciencE?
-
I only got 40 raw which is far from bad I know, although I checked with the answers on this thread for the exam and basically had them word for word which doesn't make much sense considering GA1 and GA2 were both an A+ :s
-
Did P.E go up or down this year if you get over 45? Does anyone know?

Incorrect. Biology gets scaled +1.

they don't choose scaling, it depends on cohort who does it - which are typically a weak one. it wont be scaling up anytime soon, since the avarege person who does it will remain similar.

yes i understand your fustration. i lost probably 5 marks on that exam that i know, got close to full mark average on my sacs in a pretty good cohort and only got 45. so annoyed.
get a statement of marks, and find out exactly what happened.

I only got 40 ;<

I only got 40 ;<
i realllly want to know what A+ cutoff is.. maybe it was high :|?
-
So p.e scales down because traditionally 'dumber' people take this subject and they don't care so much about so the average mark becomes lower?? I don't really understand how that all works :p
And when will the a+cut off come out or does it never come out?

They generally release where people scored, although I don't think I have seen each cut off released by themself. I cannot locate the files now but I remember on the VCAA site they do release what grades and what percent of students received them along with the mean and median for each.

Exactly the same as me. I corrected my answers from memory compared to whoever it was that corrected it on the thread and I only lost about 10 marks. I also got a score of 40.

vexx mate i was expecting a 48+ from you! But nonetheless a great effort.

How could Physical Education be a science? :S
-
If by science you mean it will have a midyear, it won't.

The premise is that since 'dumber' people are doing it, it would be easier to score higher as your raw study score is essentially a ranking, and the amount of 'dumber' people makes it easier to be in the top 8% of students.

aw unfortunately i was as well, and i didn't get :( no one in my school im aware of so far got 45+ aside from me, which is quite strange.. our dux got 42.. lame weaker cohort :(
howd you do? get 48+? haha

Thanks for that :) I think I understand that now...the whole scaling thing still does my head in :/

Got 48. Very happy with my result. The ambiguity of the exam was where most people tripped up I think.

^ that's awesome, well done :)

Wow this is interesting. I can sort of see why it's turning into a science.
Congratulations to you both for the study scores btw
