Title: Legal Studies 3/4 Study Score 2020
Post by: datdoe9 on October 27, 2020, 10:47:10 pm
This is for all the experts and lawyers out there!

I recently finished all coursework for Legal Studies, and have my scaled/reported SAC scores which will be given to VCAA. I received 99/100 in Unit 3 and 78/80 in Unit 4, of which both units notably scaled to 100/100. I was wondering, with these scores, and being ranked 1 in a cohort of 51 boys, what kind of study score can I expect (say, I got low 90s on the exam factoring in stress and time constraints)?

Thanks  :)

Congratulations on amazing SAC scores, you should be very proud of your achievement!
Rank 1 puts you in a very good place, in the 2019 exam an A+ was ~78% but due to COVID we don't know how well the cohort will perform to the adapted exam
Assuming a similar pattern to last year, an exam score of 90% is outstanding and you could get you an SS around the 44-48 range
You're in a good position, keep on studying hard and doing practice exams and I am sure as long as you get a solid A+, a 40+ is within your reach.
I would assume a mid 80s -low 90s would be needed for a 45+ but just use this as a guide :)
I am sure a better expert will be able to give you better insights :D

I am sure you can achieve a 50 at this rate mate. You probably should be aiming for a premier's in my opinion since your SAC scores seem top notch. Obviously, you are complementing it with your exam scores so yeah :D
