Hi lou0018,

This is not the answer you were looking for, but, it is hard to say what SAC and exam scores you'll need to receive a certain study score.

I have a friend who got A+, A+, A+ and received a 43. She had a variety of SAC scores from low 80s at the beginning of Unit 3 to some SAC results of 100% in Unit 4. I also have a friend who got mid A+s for the whole year and received a 45.

Your study score depends on a variety of factors besides your raw SAC and exam scores (This thread can explain it better than I can!). Someone can have an average of 85% and get a study score in the high 40s.

So, it might be more helpful for you to just try your best and try not to get too caught up in the numbers game!


All the best with HHD! Awesome subject :)

Again, there is no way to know what "scores" will get a 45 ss, because it all depends on the exam. But I'll break down my results.
School: I went to an under-represented school (rank 250-300)
My rank: 1/100 (in a considerably weak cohort)
Unit 3: 99/100
Unit 4: 98/100
Total: 197/200 (~99%)
I scored an A+ on exam giving me A + A+ A+ 46 (raw)
This does not mean you need a 99% average or need to be rank 1 (but rank 1 does help). Try your best and the exam will really dictate your result.
Keep in mind I am pretty sure my school wrote 'easy' SACs so most students got their marks scaled down due to the exam people who had a high 80 average ended up getting low 30s.

As you can see from the scores above there isn't a speciic sac mark range that yields a 45. The two posts above show similar final study scores but quite different sacs. That is because schools have differnet sacs so they are not comparable.

So for SACs just try to maintain a high sac rank. For a 45 if you go to an average school it is likely you need to have a very high rank but this will depend on the rest of your cohort.
