Your SAC ranking isn't concrete - it gets moderated according to your exam marks.

For example last year I averaged A's in SACs for methods but my exam mark pulled it up to an A+.

Hope this helps :)

Yeah my SAC marks got pushed down for further maths due to my exam mark... same with Religion and Society
So yeah your sac marks will change depending on your exam mark =)

The rankings and SAC processes and such are just plain weird. If there were far more significant changes to grades then I'd investigate further, but in your case I'd be of the stance that they've been moderated properly and there's no cause for concern.  Straight As are pretty damn good anyway :)

In Legal Studies
Unit 3 I got 79/100 ranked top 3
Unit 4 I got 92/100 ranked 2nd

GA1= A+
GA2= A+
GA3= A
SS I got 40
 
So even though I didn't get an internal A+ in Unit 3 it got scaled up because the competition in my school was hard. I know of people in other school who had like 97/100 for both Units and ended up with GA1 and GA2 being B+

So I don't think they have made a mistake
