@ EPL.11.4ever. - Raw scores are only visible as whole numbers, what they are originally / whether they are rounded I am not sure.

EDIT: If you were talking about scaled scores, there is no rounding.

I'm pretty sure (99%) year 12s do :) In year 11 though, the scaled score is not shown.

Hahaha :) So do you have a massive sleep catch-up day or can you maintain this indefinitely?

When you receive your study score, it will be the raw score only. You can't find out what your scaled score is but if you ask around in the forum you will have some idea of what your raw score will be scaled to.

When you go... "ask around in the forum you will have some idea of what your raw score will be scaled to." I assume you mean ask someone in Year 12 who does the same subject as me (i.e. Accounting) to find what the scaling is?.. if that makes sense...

Yeah that's right :) Try and find someone with exactly the same raw score as you. Then you'll know that your scaled score will be the same as theirs (or very similar depending on whether the raw is a rounded score, does anyone know?)

But how will they know what their scaled score is?

By the way, some people I know/met have said that they wouldn't lose any sleep just for results and some *cough* m@tty will wake up at twelve. It's not that I intentionally plan to be an insomniac, the question is, how do you fall asleep despite the nervous and agony of waiting? Like I just don't know how I'll calm myself down.

^ If your raw score ends with a 5 or a 0, you can check it with the VTAC scaling report.

If I got 40.5 for example... would that be automatically rounded up to 41?.. or does it depend on the subject?..

You only get integers for raw study scores. Scaled scores don't get rounded (since they're used to calculate your atar).

Because if people have their VCE they have access to their scaled scores. I'm guessing the ATAR report gives a full list of scaled scores (someone confirm this). Year 11s can't find out because they have no ATAR.

I know... Even in year 11 I really struggled to sleep. I think I might go for the method of exhaustion the night before. If I have little sleep on Saturday night, then logically, Sunday night will be an easier sleep :) Good luck for your sleep, and results :D

Greatness
