If you had the power, how would you change the HSC?

After watching Jamons snapchat update, i felt inspired to make this thread.
If by some chance you had the power to, how would you change the way the HSC works and its culture?
Or would you completely tear it down and build a new system?

Keen to hear everyone's thoughts!

Make it so that we weren’t so affected or “scaled down” by the performance of others in our cohort/school. Also that the external HSC mark we get is THE HSC mark we get and not based on our rankings from internal assessment.

Kinda wished the HSC promoted working together- I mean, most of us are already kinda are working together but there's always those people who want to isolate themselves. Plus, considering how high school is all about teaching us life skills, shouldn't the HSC encourage group work since you're required to do so at university and at work?

Opengangs:
I don't think the HSC system is at fault with promoting a collective performance; it's the individual schools and the teachers emphasising the need to 'fight' for your rank.

Don't get me wrong, securing a top rank is important but I feel like having a place that supports group work and teamwork is just as important - if not more important. The HSC promotes this by taking into consideration the overall strength of the cohort. But the HSC system can only do so much. The rest is up to the teachers and how they perceive this system.

At the end of the day, you're only as strong as your weakest member.
