Mine is announced next week. So nervous.
So how did everyone go?
And what is techniquely a "Good" mark?
-
If your aim is 40 a good mark is a solid high A.
If your aim is 45 a good mark is an A+.

It would depend on how strong your cohort is as well.
For example, if you have a weak cohort you would be looking to get 100% each time otherwise the top mark in your cohort.
Whereas if you have a strong cohort then being ranked in the top 10-15 or whatever wouldnt be too detrimental unless you want to get a near perfect score.
Just do the best you can each time.

Note, its very difficult to get a 40 if you only get high As...

We're talking SACs - not exams!

Is it possible to get over 40 if u get a low A for the first bio sac

Yes. 1 sac result doesnt determine whether you can score above 40. If you start getting higher results i.e. high A - high A+ than the possibilty of getting a higher score is increased. But remember that your ranking in your cohort is also important.

My friend got a B+ in his first SAC and got a 50 last year. dw too much.

^^ Did he manage to pull off a top ranking in the end, or was his cohort ridiculously good?

My cohort is ridiculously good (MHS), and he had great exam marks. He definitely wasn't top ranked.
-
Would it be possible if your cohort is weak?

I think so, as long as there are high A+s in exams and SACS improve after the B+.
-
Last year a friend of mine got a low B in his first bio sac, he went on to get a 46.
-
i got 88 - is this an A? and if it is, is it a low or high A? :/
btw when they calculate the sac marks do they use your percent or write it like somethign over something - in this case 22/25
i have no idea wat rank i am in my weak cohort but i noe someone else got 23/25 :buck2:
-
22/25 would probably be A+ .
Grades for individual SACs have little meaning though.
Please don't make this assumption. A friend got fairly high A+s in exams and an A in SACs and got a 39. Don't make his mistake, every SAC counts.
I think 23+ is an A+ btw (at MHS anyways)

This happened to my friend as well, but we had a harsh marking teacher :s Try your best in all sacs.
-
o ok. so i think my mark was high A. i shall have to try harder tho :(
wat is the sac after enzymes about btw. is there such thing as a sac that tests everything studied in AOS1, unit 3?
-
Something usually on Homeostasis, eg. regulation of oxygen and CO2
-
I got 24/25 (96%) for the first SAC .. I know someone else in my class got 24.5, and I think another person got 24/25. Ridiculously weak cohort :(

Try a 23/25 with another on 23, one on 24 and one on 25 in a weak cohort.... =.=
-
better than me christiano. i got 22 and found out laters that someone who i thought was weaker than me got 23, another got 23.5 someone else got 24.5 and i betcha someone got 100% =.=
but i guess i knew i did bad after that sac - i thought the teacher would mark me hard and give me a 76ish. so i guess i should be thankful :)
EDIT: weak cohort too. NOT THANKFUL ANYMORE >:(
-
what is a weak cohort?
-
A cohort is all the students doing a particular subject from your school or if you're talking about your year 12 cohort then it's all the students in your year level. Therefore a weak cohort is a cohort that you think won't do very well in exams which would result in lower study scores.
-
Macrob is not a weak cohort.!
wah? i think your confusing me with someone else :/
