Post your results here!
Any off-topic discussion other than a "congrats" or a "...and you said you would "only" get an A :P" will be removed (ie. Don't post here until Monday XD) :) Feel free to quote your comparisons with your predictions though :) Any bagging of other users, as per forum rules, will not be tolerated, as well as bragging, that's not on.

Got a B+! Good enough I guess :)
-
Just got my envelope for Chem, hoped for a B+ but I managed an A+ : )
-
A+ wow
well done
managed an A...good enough i suppose :)
-
A+ but not sure how i feel after physics reuslt ...
-
im gonna be honest here, i got C..... with A's in sacs and lets B+ for end of year, what am i looking at? i feel so depressed
-
C+
Chem is my best subject, but that's what you get when you dont even manage to finish the exam.
This is really embarrasing to post but im sure it will make someone feel better haha
-
B
so depressed, not over the mark but knowing i could have put in more effort during the actual exam and worked faster to finish the paper.
oh well life goes on
we can improve for unit 4!!!
Just wondering, is it still possible to get an atar of 90 if ur midyears are B-B+?
-
A.
*sigh*
-
Got an A. Real happy, barely did any practice exams and the ones I did I completely failed!
-
A+
-
I don't know what to think of B+. Can someone help me out? I'm achieving high scores for sacs, roughly averaging A-A+. Would these equate to attaining a study score of 40 if I achieve A+ in the end of year exam?
(More importantly where do I stand with a B+...i'm generally any other student who seeks to do really well)
:S
Thanks in advance xx
-
B+
-
What are the mark ranges? I haven't got my result but I'm wondering what is classifed as an 'A', 'A+', 'B' and the rest. Thanks (:
-

Around 33 maybe. C+ Exam 1, C exam 2 and As sacs for bio got me 31.

We had a glance over the grade distributions at Period 5 today (for some reason I can't find it at home), but the A+ cut off was 67.5/75

Absolutely.

For atar or subject score or exam marks?

67.5 was A+ cutoff
62.5 was A cutoff
57 was B+ cutoff
50.5 was B cutoff
-
Haven't got my result yet, but by looking at Thushan's solution, I think I will get 62 marks...0.5 mark from getting an A!!!!! Come on VCAA >:(

Don't worry so much about your grades. In the end, your total scores will be netted, which will be one of the factors in determining the study score that you will be designated. You've gotten a high B+ as well, so you shouldn't worry! Best of luck to all for Unit 4! : )
-
C >_<
But this semester is easier for me so get ready for some serious competition guys !
-
This is so BS, i came out of the exam feeling I would definitely get A+, I had finished 10 mins early, i checked the solutions and found 1 or 2 mistakes costing me about 3 marks and i end up getting B+. I can't figure out where the hell I lost 18 marks. :( Any hopes of getting over 40 now?
-
C hahaha but I was expecting a D so it's all good. I put all my effort into biology and did like 2 practice exams so ya I'm happy :) well done to everyone who worked hard and got great marks :D
Can I get a 25 with a C assuming I'll do better on end of year and sac's are probably like C-C+ ?

Dude, I'm shattered too. exact same result. exact same confusion.
-
I got an A :'(
I tried really hard for that exam...ah well
If this a high A (i.e. 1 or 2 marks of A+) is there still a chance I can scrape a mid 40 (44 or 45)?

What happens if you get an A for the mid-year - ie. 40+ query, panic, etc etc

c+ for chem and B for physics, i feel so depressed about physics, there wasnt a question that i didnt answer confidently :'( , oh well i cant let the past effect me otherwise il fail even more,
(for all those depressed students i say ....wipe the tears out of your eyes, forgot about the past, and start a new start :)

-
Got an A, but I have a feeling I was really close (like 1 -2 marks) from the A+ cutoff *sigh* #scumbag VCAA, oh well still pretty happy with it though!
-
I didn't have school today, is there anyway I can check on line ?

Look, there's little point worrying about it. It *may* be possible to get a 40, but I wouldn't put any expectations on yourself to get it.
Just see what you did badly in prep and move on :)

It's all good i got spesh, methods, bio, and english to make up for it :P. as for chem i'll make it my lowest priority but i wouldn't abandon it :).

Can I get a 25 with a C assuming I'll do better on end of year and sac's are probably like C-C+ ?
C is the median
30 is a median study score
you should get 30 if you get all Cs i think

C+ was the median, but as mentioned above you should get around 30 if you C's for your other GA's.
-
B+ :(
Confused in regards to where I lost all these marks, but oh well.
To all those who are disappointed with their scores DONT GIVE UP! As many other ANer's have said we can still achieve a respectable study score! JUST KEEP STUDYING:D
-
is it possible to get high 30's with my B+ given that my sacs have been A+ and I will attempt to score an A+ on the next exam?

Probably wouldnt count on it. I got C, C+ (both exams) , A (sacs) for a subject and got 31.

I got an A. :) Is it still possible to scrape a 39-40?

-
A+!! So stoked :D I don't regret the excessive study and number of practice exams I did at all now :)))
-
I thought I did very bad in this exam and wasn't expecting much for the grade but got a B so I'm very happy :D
-
B+, hoping that it wasn't a low one. oh well, better to move on and try to do better next time :D
congrats to everyone with their scores :)
-
A+ as expected, was getting slightly nervous though after hearing some of my friends didn't do too well and seeing the high cut-off.
Now its a matter of getting my statement and finding out how high (or low) that A+ was :)

Good to see Glenny is still doing well :D
-
Yeah I reckon about 10-12 of us would've got an A+ :D

That's not too bad actually, but I think we did better last year :P jks good luck with everything :D
-
hmmm...highest at my school was an A.
-
hmmm...highest at my school was an A.
..Achieved by yours truly I'm assuming?
.. also I will try to build some self-esteem up for you guys with my epic failure of a result when I get them, so stay tuned folks!
Prediction: Anywhere between D-C+ hopefully not any lower..
-
hmmm...highest at my school was an A.
..Achieved by yours truly I'm assuming?
Nah, most of us got B+'s though, including me :(

Shouldn't be worried too much about it in my opinion (because it is genuinely a good score, despite what you might think), it's all in the past now - so don't let it eat you up and make you feel down. You have Unit 4 to tackle now.. in my opinion the score that you get means absolutely nothing as long you learnt something.. but a lot of people are too obsessed with the number's game :) which is.. perfectly normal.
-
Got a C. Perfectly expected since I didn't know more then half the course and was averaging 40-50% on the prac exam (I done 3).
What score can I be looking at If I can get a B+-A+ on the end of year exam while getting Rank 1 in SACs? I prefer this unit much more then Unit 3.. so hence why I'm willing to put some effort in.
-
Got my SoM and got 73.5/75 :D
-
^WOW, CONGRATS! AMAZING SCORE! :D
(auto-Premz?)
-
Is it that good?
-
It's not good, but rather, it's an insane score :P
-
Is it that good?
You'd be crazy to think it's not.
-
69/75
what would i be looking at with a similar end of years? 41, 42, 43?
-
Got my SoM and got 73.5/75 :D
Good on you man! Keep it up - you're @ 50 level I think.
-
Yeah I reckon about 10-12 of us would've got an A+ :D
That's not too bad actually, but I think we did better last year :P jks good luck with everything :D
We'll probably have more than 1 score above 46 this year, unlike last :P
-
Is it that good?
THAT IS SOO GOOD! omg haha 50 for sho if you replicate this in end of the year
-
Got my SoM and got 73.5/75 :D
That's fantastic, well done!
-
69/75
what would i be looking at with a similar end of years? 41, 42, 43?
Well done guys! A 42-44 is definitly possible with a repeat in the next exam. If you can shave off a few marks in the next exam then a 45+ is also possible.
Also, when did you guys put in your order for the SOM?
-
Got my SoM and got 73.5/75 :D
Thats why you chose UMEP Chem :P Btw, CONGRATS!!!
-
these marks are so good!
well done guys!!
-
Hey guys my statement just came. Got a 72/75!!!! Just wondering if I can still get a 50. I was only aiming for a 40raw in chem this year but I think I should up my goal to maybe a 45+. From what I've heard the difference between a 45-50 isn't alot. Could anyone please give some input on what score I'd need for the next exam for a 47? It would be very appreciated. Thank you!

(Thushan on paulsterio's account)
GOOD ON YOU MAN! I would say you're well in league for a 50 - I know of a dude who got 72.5/75 in the midyear and 81/82 in the endofyear in 2010 (where the midyear A+ cut was almost 90%) and ended up with a 50.
-
Thanks Thushan!! Gonna work even harder this semester. I got the copy of your book. It looks really good. Keep up the good work!
-
I'm over the moon with a 71/75 :D what study score would I be looking at with a similar mark at the end of year? Thanks :)
-
Just checked mine and I got an A+. Is it possible to get a statement for Unit 3 after end of year exams are over, or do I have to do that now?
-
before a certain date in september (nowish)
-
Cheers.
-
For Statement of Marks, the form states "Applications for Statements of Marks close on Friday 15 February 2013" (and then also the late fee date).
The September date is for inspection of your exam scripts: "Applications for Inspection of June Examination Scripts close on Friday 21 September 2012."
-
I WANT TO SEE MY STATEMENT NOW ARGH, WHY DID I ONLY MAIL MY APPLICATION ON TUESDAY
The suspense is too hard to bear!
-
If you want your SoM faster, you can fax it to them... I got it within two days.
I was really excited cos I got an A+ but now i'm a bit disappointed cos I only just got the cutoff mark. I kind of regret looking at it :(

Um quit bitching you got an A+! Get some self esteem and be proud of yourself for doing so well! So many people would have studied hard and got a C+, get some perspective amigo: you're going to get over 40. This is stupid.
-
Anyone able to estimate what a 70/75 could yield as a study score if repeated?
:)

44-47? Can't really tell. This exam was easy, but the next one could be easy or hard.

That's really not fair at all. Different people have very different expectations and obviously will be disappointed about different results. So long as you're not being ostentatiously remorseful, there's nothing wrong with expressing it and HBP was definitely not untactful. To call this stupid is stupid. Not everyone is happy with simply 'get[ting] over 40', including myself. Nothing wrong with shooting for the stars and falling short and being disappointed about it, it gives you something to work towards, and it certainly doesn't mean she has no 'self-esteem'. Just because other people worked hard and got a C+, it doesn't mean those who have higher expectations for themselves should feign satisfaction.
Apologies if I sound harsh or rude but I'm so sick of that attitude (not referring directly to you, I don't think you even meant it like I've perceived it), especially at school.

Thats so true. Everyone has different expectations. I feel a bit sad about my mid year exams too but just dont wanna express it too much because I still have chances in the end-of-year exams
-
Guys let's cool it down a little. Derp, you have a point - but say it more constructively :P and Joseph - consider derp's point. People are allowed to have expectations of themselves and be disappointed when they don't get what they hope for.
-
I got my statement of marks and there's some marks I lost but I'm not sure why......what's the process if you want to appeal? Should I wait until after the examiner's report or now? Do I inspect the script first?

I agree with you guys, I didn't mean it in a malicious way, I meant to try and show her that she should be proud of herself for her achievements and try to make her feel better!
Yes she was disappointed but there is so much that is good in her mark that I feel she should be happy. It's an A+! The best possible grade! I don't want her to feign satisfaction at all, I want her to feel truly satisfied as she has achieved something so great. Do you not see that it is upsetting that someone can do so well yet still feel disappointed? How is this a good thing? Aim high but call a spade a spade, you still did awesome. It sucks that she can't be happy for herself.
This is life, we can't all be perfect, so there's no point sulking about it when you came so close.
-
I get ya. I think the best thing to say is that 'I did well, but I think I could have done better.' That's what I say now when I get a mark which is good, but one in which I'm disappointed in.

I get your sentiment. Like I said, I wasn't just replying to you, just to that stream of thinking in general. I don't think it's upsetting though - some people will feel that an A+ is well within their capabilities and that if they put in the work, they can easily get a really high one. Hence you might be disappointed if you don't. Like Thushan said, anyone would acknowledge that they got the highest grade (which I'm sure HBP did) but some are still inclined to think they did better, whilst others might be overjoyed. Remember also that in terms of your study score there difference between a 70 and a 71 is the same as the difference between a 60 and a 61, so the actual mark can be very important, especially to those who aimed to get upwards of 72 or 73.

Very true, sorry if I angered you there, but I agree.

No need to apologise! I understand where you come from and it's a merited viewpoint, I just wish think that it's used too generally, if that makes sense.

i completely agree!!!
there are so many people who study extremely hard yet only achieve C's and C+'s. So be happy with what you have instead of whining that you "only just got an A+"....oh poor you. you're going to get nowhere in life on "the cutoff mark" for an A+!!! So many people on here complain over getting A's and A+'s. GET OVER IT GUYS!!! YOU DID YOUR BEST AND THAT'S ALL ANYONE CAN ASK FOR!!! So if you did exceptionally well, good on you! No need to find something to complain over though.
On another note, congratulations on the A+
:)
-
I'm happy with my B+.
I think it's around 121/150, what would I need for a 35/36, if I have bad SAC marks?

To lift future sac marks. And probably High-ish A end of year?

Um quit bitching you got an A+! Get some self esteem and be proud of yourself for doing so well! So many people would have studied hard and got a C+, get some perspective amigo: you're going to get over 40. This is stupid.
i completely agree!!!
there are so many people who study extremely hard yet only achieve C's and C+'s. So be happy with what you have instead of whining that you "only just got an A+"....oh poor you. you're going to get nowhere in life on "the cutoff mark" for an A+!!! So many people on here complain over getting A's and A+'s. GET OVER IT GUYS!!! YOU DID YOUR BEST AND THAT'S ALL ANYONE CAN ASK FOR!!! So if you did exceptionally well, good on you! No need to find something to complain over though.
On another note, congratulations on the A+
:)
Guys honestly, good job. I would kill for that A+, so be extremely happy and treat yourself. Yea, you may not have received what you have wanted but think: there are people out there that worked just as hard as you but still received a lower letter grade (most likely due to silly errors). So, I don't mean to be rude but please be happy for yourself and stop complaining. You did an amazing job. Atleast you have a chance at 40+, that is still something.
Thankyou

I know what you mean i got a B+ expecting an A+. It is disappointing but no point bitching about the past. It happened, time to move on.

a lot of people are in that situation
then they come onto atarnotes and see people putting themselves down when they got an A+!!!
what kind of message is that sending?
it's meant to be supportive but if people are putting themselves down we gotta think about what that is doing to other people!
it makes people who are already feeling shit about their marks feel 1000 times worse, when in reality, if you did your best you should be proud!!!
congratuations on the B+
that is great
:)

Don't worry about what other people think.
A B+ is still absolutely amazing
You and pretty much everyone else should be really happy.
Yeah if you're someone who put no effort in, didn't study, just rocked up on the day and did they exam - then you should be upset [even though you really have no reason to be because you'd deserve it] because you could have achieved so much more if you had tried.
But if you did put in the work, be proud of what you have done, whether you got a D or an A :)
Remember we still have end of years!
So at least we know how we're going and what is/isn't working so we have a second chance whereas people without midyears don't have that advantage.
BE HAPPY EVERYONE :D :D :D

Glad the tone is happier now! But yeah, if you're kicking yourself about your score, then show yourself that you've got grit and go smash Unit 4 chem. If you are really happy with your score, show yourself that you're not cocky and work hard to smash Unit 4 chem.

Always nice having you on this forum :D really supportive.

72.5. I really thought that I full marked it. Need to own unit 4 now the decider. Also do we need to know the batteries off by heart because besides that I'm done for unit 4.

Not by heart, they'll give you the information.
And seriously? DUDE that's crazy.

The earlier I finish the more time for trials. I love trials ;) its a void I must fill

Then start on those goddamned trials.
And you seem like a smart cookie. Try Exam 3 out of my book some time :P
-

Try to do only a few trials a week for now. They hold more value the closer you get to exam time, when you can do a couple a day or whatever.

You are like one of my friends. He finished unit 4 chemistry on semester holidays :P

I got A+ in Chem as my result but got my SOM and got 67.5, so the lowest mark possible for A+, If i can get a mid range A+ (equivalent of maybe 71 on the mid year) what would my study score be? Is it possible to get a RAW 42/43 with a mid A+ for end of year? My SAC's aren't amazing but in a very strong cohort so should still be A+ SAC's.
Wrong thread but I also got A+ for physics, 85/90, I was really hoping for a 50 and put lots of effort in but know that's not achievable anymore, if i go really well end of year either full mark or drop 1 maybe 2 marks is it possible to get a RAW 47? My SAC's should be 200/200 or close to it unless my exam scales them down.
Cheers

To my knowledge your goals are very much achievable. I would have said you would be on track for a 42-44 ( depending on your RANK in sacs)
Definately possible for physics.
-
What sort of raw study score range is plausible for a 71/75 (142/150)?
Obviously depending on exam 2 mark, be it the same or higher...
-
i think 50 would still be possible, although highly unlikely (would need to full mark a hard exam). with a similar score i think you're looking at ~46 ish
-
What study score would a low A+ on Exam 1 and full marks on Exam 2 net? Murphy's Law and all that (in regards to Unit 3 which I don't have the guts to get a statement for).
-
I got a 70.5/75, what would I need on the next exam for a 46-48?
-
A, pretty happy but now I'm wondering what I have to do to get an A+
