Hi guys,

What has been and what is usually the 48+ exam cutoff, if you are ranked 1 in a strong cohort?

No such thing. Changes each year and anyone that tells you would only be guessing

I think because the HHD A+ cut-off has been so low these past 3-4 years (you could get 24 mistakes and still end up with a low A+ on the exam), you can afford to lose a few marks and still get a good score. I know that I definitely must've lost at least 7-10 marks throughout the exam (damn ottawa charter Question!) but I still ended up with a 48, so I guess you shouldn't worry too much about losing a few marks - just aim to minimise marks lost on sacs, maintain your #1 rank and maximise marks gained on the exam and I think you should definitely be capable of a 48+ score :)

Its true that generally in HHD around 73% on the exam will just get you an A+. Which is somewhat surprising considering it is not generally classed as a 'hard' subject. It may just be the type of person that selects that subject, I can't be sure. But all I know is that if you work hard you will get reuslts
