Joining with MHS, good thing or bad?
Mao:
mmm thats a good point
well, i dont know the exact reason why we joined with MHS, but i do know that last year cohort of 4 joined with Berwick Secondary college, and the results were BAD (nothing over 30)
i suppose our teacher want to try other possibilities
and the reason why this is happenning to our maths is, as our school is so GREAT (yeh), we only had 4 out of 6 people pulling out of spec, and have to join with other schools anyways....
but then i suppose my school teacher will try to rank us as high as possible, and MHS will try the opposite, it's a battle of the will (and prestige?) =S

I really think both teachers will try not to do that. Ultimately it is in their best interest, the schools best interest and the kids best interest to place you in the correct rank order. If they get the order wrong, it can seriously stuff the cohort. And as Ninwa says: even if you are the bottom of the cohort, your marks are going to be pushed up by MHS's anyway.
Eriny:
The only bad thing I can think of is that if your SACs are easier than MHS's, even if you get 100% on every SAC, you'll be less likely to rank number 1 because the teachers may reason that you only got 100% because it's easier - you wouldn't be given a chance to prove that you could beat the scores of the MHS people.

I suppose you can take comfort from the fact that you will be ranked amoungst a school who had 49 kids with a study score of 40+ for specialist maths!!! So in theory if you can slot into the top 50 of the MHS cohort you will most likely be looking at a 40+.
Pandemonium:
As long as you're not placed above me I'm fine.
