Title: Does the website contain correct info?
Post by: Rose34 on July 25, 2021, 10:56:33 pm

Hey everyone!

So I checked the VTAC scaling and found that chemistry scales down, no matter what score you get, you will get scaled down. That was honestly shocking because I always thought that Chemistry scales up. For example, 23 down to 20, 39 it gets down to 35, 44 down to 40, 47 down to 45 and 50 is just 50. Can anyone please tell me if that information that I found are correct? is this website wrong? here is the link https://www.vtac.edu.au/files/pdf/reports/scaling-report-20-21.pdf

Thanks in advance.

I think you may be reading the scaling report incorrectly.

It shows chemistry goes from 20 to 23, 35 to 39, 40 to 44.

Hope this helps :)
