Hi, I am doing Unit 3 and 4 Biology and was just wondering if I can get a good study score (30+) based of this average sac score.
Unit 1 I averaged 45% (E+) - which is around 60th rank in the school

Are those scores from unit 1 or unit 3?

I'm not too savvy about all of the technical stuff, but anecdotally, I'd tell you I saw it happen last year.

A good mate of mine failed her unit three sacs, (and one of her unit four sacs). We were a cohort of about sixty as well and she was definitely sitting in the bottom two or three. She picked things up a bit before the exam, and thanks to last year's very straightforward one she came away with "a good score" (30). I'm sure it helps that on the whole, our cohort did quite well, there was a 50 and 15% got 40+ study scores.

You still have all of unit four to improve your ranking, and the exam is a large part of it as well! It's very early in the year to give up!
