108/120, enough for 40?

Honestly, not sure. I'd probably say that given the difficulty of both papers, no-one got 100% on both. And the general consensus is that A+ cut-offs will be a bit lower for each paper, so I gonna say yes for your case :)

I'm looking at + or - 2 105. = D

Hoping for 40 but not all that optimistic.

Easily! Those are beast scores!


looking at 109/120, hbu pi?

Similar, 111-113/120 (depends on how harsh the marking is)
(also, I can't remember one answer I got, so I took 3/3 off for it :()

107... what would that get me?...Enough for 40?

 (Ranked second in the cohort in SACs)
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: pi on November 09, 2011, 08:59:55 pm
Looking at the poll, no-one would of guessed this was a particularly "hard" set of exam :o

I'm scared now...

maybe 112 - 115/120?
What's 112/120 for a study score with strong sacs?
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: mattshen on November 09, 2011, 09:07:12 pm
Rohit, I'm pretty sure you can get 30+ with those scores mate =p
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: illuminati on November 09, 2011, 09:13:25 pm
115/120 worst case scenario
potentially 119/120 but realistically 117/120
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: luken93 on November 09, 2011, 09:17:32 pm
mmmm probably 112-110, fml I hate silly errors.

I hope you're right... I'd be over the moon if I get 40 raw in my opinion.

Post by: kateesposito on November 09, 2011, 09:21:52 pm
is the general idea that you need a 110/120 to get 40+?
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: illuminati on November 09, 2011, 09:22:26 pm
surely not
I'd say 108+?
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: kateesposito on November 09, 2011, 09:26:01 pm
i'm really really really really hoping that it's a lot lower that 110.....
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: Random_Guy on November 09, 2011, 09:32:04 pm
I'm hoping 107/120 for 40 raw. I got 108.
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: andrew.michail on November 09, 2011, 09:37:51 pm
what do you reckon the mean score out of 120 will be this year? and this corresponds to a C+ right?
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: nubs on November 09, 2011, 09:44:18 pm
i think it will be 106/107+ to get into the 40s
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: MaddehZ on November 09, 2011, 09:48:37 pm
97/120 anyone ?

hoping for a 35 !
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: mathsmatt on November 09, 2011, 09:59:20 pm
I think realistically around 114-115, possibly 116 :). Good enough for 45?

I might seem stupid, but where'd you get the /120 from?

Haha mickey you beat me too it
edit dw i see it now 80+40
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: cltf on November 09, 2011, 11:06:40 pm
I actually think this year 100/102 is 40. Purely because, whilst some upper echelon students mainly VN found the exam so-so/ doable/no different to last year. The majority average students in the state found the exams quite tough and teachers I've talked to said the exam was probably harder.  So chances are the cut offs will be lower, but at the end of the day SAC ranking will come in play.

Definitely, SACs still play a big part, 34% to be exact. The state average would be lower this year and would hopefully push the cutoffs down so 100/120 seems possible

112/120 with mid A+ sacs
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: Callum on November 10, 2011, 10:41:36 am
mmm sorry but why is it out of 120?

Total score from both exams. Exam 1=40 marks, Exam 2=80 marks.
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: SamiJ on November 10, 2011, 11:43:26 am
1/120? If I'm really lucky and they're generous 2/120.
Sigh...
Title: Re: What score are you looking at /120?
Post by: DavidSheena on November 10, 2011, 08:04:34 pm
Too afraid to look at exam 2 solutions :/.
So far:
Sacs: mid to high A+ (average cohort)
Exam 1: 36/40
Exam 2: Hopefully A or A+ whatever that is.
Any chance of 40 raw?

why would rohit be aiming for 30+ when he estimates (conservatively) at around 112.

It's always a much nicer surprise finding out you did better than you were aiming for than finding out you did worse.
