I also am aiming for a 50...definitely doable.
I've done at least 30 practice exams so far, some have been repeats because there ain't enough practice exams out there and am too lazy to write my own.
Just hoping I don't read the question wrong, that's all. I've gotten a few full marks for my practice exams, and few where I lose anywhere between 1-5 marks..yikes

Yeah me too but doing more than 15-20 is useless I reckon. Once you know how to apply the content in a timely manner I think the focus should be nailing your memorisation...

it's all about your rank, and then how well you perform on the exam

Hi There,

Not quite >45 (my biggest let-down of Year 12), but I landed a 43 with:

GA1: 100/100 (scaled to 100/100)
GA2: 100/100 (scaled to 100/100)
GA3: 126/160 (A+)

Safe to say, I really do wonder how my exam was actually marked.  :-X Hope this helps!

You should request a statement of results if you’re uncertain. It’s free this year.

Oh I did! Exceptionally high marks for Section B, but I lost some marks in Section A on a few of the larger mark questions where I thought I had no business losing them, especially considering I did some identical practice questions and was given full marks by my teacher (an examiner).

There's little point debating anything with VCAA, too much stress when you can get most places within a few years after graduating anyway, and I was lucky to get into my target course nonetheless.  :)

So you lost a mere 17 marks out of 80 on the exam with perfect SAC scores, but ended up with only 43??
Holyyyy this is gonna be harder than I thought! :-\

Just out of curiosity, were you rank 1 in your cohort? thanks!
