Title: Is it possible to get a 40 raw?
Post by: mimi123 on October 13, 2011, 07:26:53 pm
Hi, I was wondering with my progress so far is it impossible to get a 40 raw?I'm not expecting too much with methods, but yeah.
So far on my sacs I've gotten B B A A, I still have one sac to go. The second B, was actually quite high for that sac, 3rd highest score in my class. My teacher said im ranked in top 20 percent of methods students, theres about 120 students. So i suppose what i am asking is htat what can i do to get a 40 raw, if its possible.

Entirely depends on the strength of your cohort.

eg. MHS SACs scale up a lot, I don't know exactly how much, but with a B+/A/A+/B/B for my unit 3 SAC marks [83/137 or something, crap I know], considering a number of students got like 130+], I think they all go up to either A/A+, same for many other stronger performing schools like MacRob, CGS, Hailebury, etc I would assume.

But for the average school which has the "average students", the ones that are getting 30 SS, a B/B/A/A wouldn't be very impressive, like I said, it depends on the strength of your cohort. Or you could ace the exam and it wouldn't matter, lol.
