Definitely got more than I deserved/expected for English and History Revs, both which I did almost 0 work for due to sheer laziness (for the week preceding the English exam I reread Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.  For the 6th time.) and cbfness (for History, I knew it was going to be my 7th subject and thus not count).

But yes, I feel as though I "worked" the system well, especially with Language Analysis.

Definitely ITA, did minimal work all year although remained rank 1 in SACs. Was expecting it to be my 7th or 8th subject and therefore considered it kinda a waste of time, however because of some divine intervention, the exam played to my strengths!

Yeah, in English my marks were B+, B+, A, and my rank was like 14 or something, my friend who was rank 1 got A+, A+, B, and he got a higher SS than me! NOT FAIR!!

I have no idea how I managed to pull off an A+ in the english exam - I think I played the system in regards to the SAC rankings - I knew that I needed a high ranking to get the good study score (due to a very, very large underperforming cohort).

I probablly also played the system in regards to studio arts - pulled off A+ in SATs (they mattered more than the exam) and hence, basically did little study for the exam - it was my best performing subject.

However, I definitely got screwed in terms of my business management unit 3 mark. not happy.

I think the only subjects I didn't expect to do that well in was Arabic and Methods... Arabic is a really hard subject and I kinda stuffed up my oral exam >_> So how I got what I did shocked me.
For Methods I practically didn't study as much as I should of >_> so how I did well I don't know ... (I put more effort in Further and did better in Methods ROFL!)

Lolz, my Italian oral exam was a mess! Rightfully so, I got a C in it. XD (And it only got worse in the written, but still averaged a C in the end)...
