Title: What study score will i get? Busman
Post by: jess_school on October 04, 2020, 04:01:31 pm

Hi guys,

I was just wondering if anyone could help me with estimating my study score for busman?
I'm aiming to get a 45 study score in business and am wondering what exam score I will need to achieve that.

My SAC scores are:
U3 AOS 1: 100%
U3 AOS 2: 100%
U3 AOS 3: 96%
U4 AOS 1: 100%
U4 AOS 2: 100%

The average sac scores of the cohort were about 50-60% i think

I was rank 2 in semester 1 and am either rank 1 or 2 this semester out of a cohort of about 90

If anyone could help it would be much appreciated  :)

Hi Jess,
I'm doing Busman this year too!
Using the 2019 exam results alone, 85% on the exam would give you a raw 45, but considering your study scores, the study score calculator suggested that you only needed 80%. In last years exam, an A+ was any score over 70%, so 80% on the exam is really good, but I'm sure you can achieve this based off your study scores. Also, remembering that a 45 puts you in the top 2% of students.
I hope this helped in some way. All the best for the exam!  :)

Thanks for the reply :)

Do you mind sharing what ss calculator you used? I've been using Deakin's atar calculator mostly to try and estimate my study scores but I'm not too sure if it is accurate

also good luck on your exam too, i'm sure you'll ace it ! :)

I just used the grade distribution data from last year.

Here is the link for all subjects: https://www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/administration/research-and-statistics/performance-senior-secondary/Pages/2019-grade-dist.aspx

I would think this year could be very different due to Covid.
