German 40+ study score????

How hard is it to get a 40+ study score?

so far for my three sacs i have gotten B+s, but its a MHS cohort and our classmates are pretty smart themselves, plus our teacher has not given any A+s even though we have a year 11 who has a german background and is very good at German.

if i do well in my oral and get an A in the exam, what SS am i looking at>?

Is your year a strong year? A quick scan of the study score archives shows MHS only getting 1 40 in 2009, unless that year was a weak year or something. Although your teacher sounds like a tight marker - it's probably likely to scale to A/A+

Being a LOTE, you'll most likely need high GAs to get high raw scores, particularly a high examination mark. Straight As for GAs would probably be mid 30s at best...?

It's quite difficult - you'll need three A+s (but if your teacher is such a hard marker then your SACs will definitely get scaled up).

If it helps, I got A, A+, A+ for a SS of 38.
(I was rank 1 in SACs but because there were only 3 people in my class we were combined with the class from our other campus. Highest SS in my cohort was 44 that year so I'm guessing that's why my SAC mark went down.)

The written exam is out of 300 (75 x 4), the oral exam is out of 100. These two scores are combined to give a total examination score of 400.

So you could get 100 for the oral, and 250/300 (62.5/75) for the written exam to scrape an A+ assuming a 350/400 cut off

so now i have a better idea of what i might get (even tho the exam is in 3 horus, i can still bother to predict my score :P)

if i get low A+ for my sacs, and about 325/400 for the exam, so mid-high As
what SS am i looking at raw?
id be elated with anything over 45 scaled :D
i expected german to be a bottom subject, but after some laclustre performances in the sciences, maths and arts, this LOTE might give me a nice final boost.
