Title: The grades need for a study score of 40 or above?
Post by: daniel99 on March 05, 2008, 07:02:41 pm: Hey,
I am doing business this year, 08', and was wondering what marks I would need on S.A.C's and were I would need to be ranked in my school and also exam marks?

Um well you would need to try to be ranked in the top 3 (depending on the number of students doing business management at your school)... As for marks you'd need to average about a high A to A+ ...
Hope that helps,
Good luck.
If you need any help with anything just let us know and we'll gladly help you :)

Post by: Rietie on March 05, 2008, 08:03:00 pm: Well. I would think it would depend on how large the class is and how strong the middle is - if you have a strong middle, that means the whole class does really well, and that means you don't have to be in the top 5 to hit 40. Although assuming that Business classes are usually just one class of about 10-20, I would think you'd need to get into the top 5 to get a 40. So like Odette said, aim for A to A+ in SACs.

Post by: iamdan08 on March 05, 2008, 08:38:50 pm: Wow..do you know how high the A was? Its just for accounting I got A A+ A+ with my A in the midyear exam 1.5 marks off A+. Guess its different for different subjuects! lol, still...to be safe, A+'s are what you should be aiming for.

Post by: gta007 on March 05, 2008, 09:45:04 pm: Keep the good work up, daniel99.

FYI, I was 2nd (by 1 mark) in the marks for SACs and got A+, A+, A for a 41.
Funny enough, me and the first guy both got 41, but the two behind us both got 42.
So it's key to do well on SACs, but try even harder on the exam. :)

Post by: Odette on March 05, 2008, 11:15:55 pm: Lol... nah i'm no celebrity, I also got 40 for business management (So disappointing :( )

Post by: AppleXY on March 05, 2008, 11:38:50 pm: Lol 40 isn't bad, but you deserved 50. VCE undervalues students' real marks, from what I've experienced myself, first-hand. I really wanted a 48 in accounting, but that's life.
