The a+ cutoff for the french exam in 2016 was 166/200.
So for a 42 raw I would say that you would need about a 175/200
Good luck your for exam

Thanks mate
I was just wondering isn't the exam out of 100, not 200?

Thanks mate

exams are double marked hence the total mark out of 200

[Steve252]

Okay thanks

[Steve252]

So approximately what would I need for a 45+ score in French? Sorry I am just hoping to score as high as possible in French

I went to the grade distribution for 2016 and saw that the combined score for the oral and written exams was out of 400. So i halfed it so it was out of 200. I think it was for both the oral and written combined though.

The French exam, and LOTE exams in general (I believe), is actually out of 400 marks

Here's the grade distribution for French last year, if you want to have a look. GA 1 = unit 3 SACs, GA 2 = unit 4 SACs, GA3 = oral and written exams

So approximately what would I need for a 45+ score in French? Sorry I am just hoping to score as high as possible in French 

I'd imagine you'd need a high A+ I had A+ for GA1 & GA2 (and was rank 1) but only got an A for GA3 and it dragged me just below a 40.

High a+, so maybe ~190/200

Ok thanks everyone for the information, it was very helpful
So far this year my scores are:
Unit 3:45/50
Unit 4:49/50
So does that count as high A+ even though unit 3 was a bit lower?

Most likely a high A+

Honestly, it depends on rank. Your raw scores from units 3 and 4 don't mean that much.

I'd suggest not stressing about the particulars of how many marks you can get away with losing - just focus on studying hard and doing your best on your exams Predictions are just that - predictions.

Hey everyone,
What kind of score would I be looking at with a 67/75 on the written exam with high A+ sacs and A+ oral exam? Cheers

[Sparrow213]

Thanks very much. So what score would I need for a high 40s score (47,48)?
