* Data supplied by the NSW Board of Studies.

•ENTRIES is the number of merit list course completions. For example, a school with 100 HSC students sitting exams for 10 courses each, has 1000 entries (and 1000 chances of getting on the Honour Roll).

•A school must have at least 150 entries to be included on the Honour Roll. This cutoff has been chosen to be inclusive of smaller schools while minimising the large fluctuations in success rate that accompany low numbers of attempts.

•HIGH SCORES is the number of Band 6 scores.

•SUCCESS is High Scores expressed as a percentage of Entries, rounded to two decimal places.

•RANK is based on the precise success rate, so some schools with the same rounded success rate have different rankings.
