今天SMH报道了关于新南威尔士州高中会考评分制度的改革

高中生不再有机会获得一人完美的100分，HSC考试的最高分数限制在99.95分。

65000多名新州12年级学生今日收到一封解释信，大学入门考试排名（University Entrance Rank－UAR）将被改名为澳洲高等教育入学排名（Australian Tertiary Admission Rank－ATAR），除昆州外的所有州都将接受新的命名ATAR。

早前，新州学生是澳洲唯一有机分获得100分，其它州早已最高分都将固定在99.95分。
　　
高校招生中心（Universities Admissions Centre）主管Andrew Stanton表示，澳洲高等教育入学排名比大学入门考试排名相似，但成绩要略高一些，比如一名UAI60分的成绩将被换算成为63.4分，而93分的UAI成绩将被换算成93.55分，还有UAI99分将被换算成为9.05分。
　　
Andrew Stanton表示，学生们无需对成绩的变化感到担忧，他们进入大学的机会是均等的。
　　
James Ruse中学的Larissa Treskin表示，去年共8名学生UAI测试获100分，对于其它州的学生无缘100分，他感到很遗憾。
“我对这项变革感到很失望，我感觉就仿佛拿走了今年一些学生长期为之奋斗的目标。”
　　
在去年HSC考试中获得满分的Daniel Swain表示，对于自己成为最后一名获得满分的学生，他感到很惊奇。Daniel Swain是在Wollongong的 Smiths Hill High就读，他以满分的成绩进入悉尼大学艺术系。
　　
Daniel Swain表示，他有一个维州朋友获得99.95分，他们那里以与新州100分者同样的方式进行庆祝。
“他们也管这叫满分，但我想大部分，包括未来的雇主，还是会对100分的印象都将更加深刻一些。”

There's no such thing as a perfect child when it comes to the HSC

HIGHER School Certificate students will no longer be able to get a perfect score of 100 with the highest university entrance rank to be pegged at 99.95.

More than 65,000 year 12 students in NSW will receive letters from today explaining the change. The university entrance rank will change its name to the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank, in line with other states which - apart from Queensland - will also adopt the ATAR name.

NSW is the only state with a top university admission rank of 100, the others being pegged at 99.95.

Andrew Stanton, managing director of the Universities Admissions Centre, said ATAR rankings would be higher than equivalent UAI ranks which may push up course entry scores at universities. For example, a UAI of 60 would convert to an ATAR of 63.4, a UAI of 93 would be 93.55 and a UAI of 99 would be 99.05.

Mr Stanton said there was no need for students to worry about the change as it would make no difference to the way their marks were scaled or to their chances of gaining entry to preferred university courses.

Larissa Treskin, the principal of James Ruse Agricultural High, which last year produced eight students with UAIs of 100, said she was sorry other states did not round up their top university entrance rank to 100.

"I'm disappointed the top marks were compacted down rather than up," she said.

"I think emotionally, for this year's students, it is a goal that has been snatched away."

Daniel Swain, who received a UAI of 100 in last year's HSC, said it felt weird to be one of the last students to get the top rank.

Mr Swain, who completed his HSC at Smiths Hill High in Wollongong, needed a UAI of 83 to get into his Arts course at the University of Sydney.

He said friends in Victoria who had scored 99.95 had celebrated the same way as NSW students who received 100. "They still call it the perfect score. I think other people, like employers, think 100 sounds more impressive."
