No B+ is actually a good score! So don't stress out, there are plenty of marks to gain in other SACs and also the exam which is the most important.

Although, I'm not sure if it is the same at all schools, at my school the Oral SAC had the least weighting and had very little affect on SAC scores holistically. Don't stress out, you'll be right ;)

thanks guys for making me feel better! it was the 'oral convention' part that let me down..apparently i didin't take pauses and didnt engage the audience..but i made lots of eye contact :(

hopefully i can make it up with the sacs and exam!

Don't worry! At our school the oral is only part of a sac- the other part is a language analysis. If this is the case at your school and you get a good LA mark then you should be fine for this sac as well.
