Title: Predictions V Actual.
Post by: brenden on August 03, 2012, 05:19:58 pm
Thought it would be a fun little game to make a prediction and compare on Monday.
My prediction is an A grade, pretty confident on it too (consistent stupid mistakes).
Whatd'ya reckon?

Yep, exactly the same prediction for me too. If I did get an A+ it would have to be a pretty low one haha, but I doubt I made the cut-off. I'll be happy with an A though. Just nothing below.  :P

Yeah I'm confident on a high A. Cutoff would have to be as low as last year in order for me to scrape through though. Even knowing this, I'm still disappointed. I'm just sort of waiting for it to hit harder on Monday lol.

I did about 20 practice exams and I felt that I studied pretty hard and have been doing well on my SACs so I really hope I get an A+! I think it's possible but I'd hate to set up the expectation and be let down and knowing my "hard work" wasn't sufficient.

What do you think the cut-off will be? IMO our exam was a lot easier than the 2011 one. I should've saved the 2011 exam as my last practice exam haha, oh well.

Good luck everyone! :)

(Are we supposed to post what we actually get tomorrow haha)

It was a bit easier, but then again, it was heaps longer too. I know heaps of people at my school who didn't finish  :o

Hopefully the length of the exam brought down the cut-off a bit :P

I don't think I did as many practice exams as I should have - in fact, unlike most people, I didn't even count the number I did. So, because I couldn't be bothered to count the number, I'm guessing I didn't do enough at all  :(
But I really want to get a good result for this exam (nothing lower than A+ fingers crossed!!), so that I try hard in psych for the rest of the year, and so my motivation and confidence is boosted.

Everyone is talking about their marks and I STILL don't know what I got, the suspense is killing me! Our VASS coordinator is away as is our principal. So anyone authorized to get our results wasn't at school today! :(

I did study a fair bit and think I did pretty well on it but I know it's a competitive subject and I don't want to get my hopes up so I am predicting a B :)
