{SAC RANKINGS} -All you need to know about it-

[Redoxify]

sorry If this question is answered
what if you're ranked ~ 7/13 in a weak cohort, and smash the exam, where as the people higher in ranks do worse?

Your SACs cop it, and so you cop it too. If they do terribly, you're looking at a S.S drop of 2 to 8, based on how badly and what your aims are.

If you're ranked 7/13, control what you can control, and hope for the best.

Hey Hamo,

So let's say you're rank 1 in a language (in my case French) in an average cohort - given that it's nearly impossible to score 100% on the exam for language subjects, my SAC marks (around 93%) won't ever "scale" up to 100? If so, has the teacher reduced our chances of getting a higher study score by not giving out full marks on any SACs?

Yeah, I feel your pain (languages are screwed in general).
But with SAC scaling, if you (hypothetically) place 1st in the state in your subject, then your SACs will scale to 100 (because 100/100 is on a comparative basis).

Your teacher isn't the one to blame though, because even if he/she hands out 100s incredibly frequently, your SACs will just scale from 100 down to like 90 or 95, and it probably looks worse on your statement of marks (personal preference only but i like seeing the numbers go up rather than go down!)

Its not about getting 100%, its about beating everyone else

Hi,

So I was just wondering if someone could help me out here. I've tried the SS Estimator, but I want a second (or third or fourth) opinion. For my SACs, I got:

• 91%
• 69% (REALLY bad day)
• 89%
• Predicted 100% (because it's matrices)

If I get full marks on both the exams, what would my study score be?

Thanks!

Even if you get 38/40, and 56/60, you would probably still get around 45.
Full marks = 48-50

Remember that exam is king, its 66% of your study score

Thank you so much! That is exactly the kind of motivation I was looking for, especially now when we're all drained and want to give up! Thank you again, and good luck with your studies!

I'm currently ranked 3 in one of my subjects, sitting on an A+ for unit 4, however if I I get an A+ in the exam, and I out perform rank 1 and 2 (if they get an A), is there any chance I could get a 45+ ? And a higher study score than them? or will my unit 4 sac scores scale down to an A as the third highest will correspond to an A?

[bowtiescarves]

Hey can someone please answer this,

If I am rank 2 in further, with a sac mark of 97/100 (rank 1 has 98/100), assuming I full mark the exams (and assuming rank 1 also does), do I have a chance at a 50 study score?

I ask because I know in a subject like further, those top study scores are very very competitive and it's generally the methods/spesh people (I do all 3), so I was wondering if you think I'm still able to get a 50, considering both rank 1 and myself are very strong further students and could possibly ace the exams. (and I'm assuming rank 1 will also get a 50)

thanks so much

From what I know if rank 1 gets a 50 your exam result virtually dictates your study score
It's only if they fuck up and get a 35 or something when you get affected

Yeah, providing they don't screw up badly
And it's a maths/science subject, not a language

3rd highest corresponding to an A is subjective, it really depends on your cohort this year

Sorry if this has been asked!!

I'm not entirely sure if I'm rank one, possibly rank 2 or 3 (out of about 50). If I get full marks for both further exams is it still possible to get a 50? Or is that impossible if you're not rank one?

Yes! or else how would multiple people from the one cohort get 50?
