Title: Hypothetical situation.... :(
Post by: Greatness on April 06, 2011, 04:24:50 pm
Hey guys,
Im a bit devo about english atm. I had my LA sac today and it was about banning duck hunting -.- There were 3 articles - 2 of which had visuals. I kinda freaked out, i dont think i did too well :( I should be able to pull of a B but i wanted an A min....

What kind of sac marks do you want to be getting to get a 40 study score, with say 8s for each section of the exam? Oh yeah i would say my cohort is average/moderate the top 5-10 students usually do well (40+) But our cohort is like 220 students.... I need some reassurance feeling quite down  :-\

To score a 40 with all 8s you would be looking for close to perfect SAC marks. Remember, no one SAC can prevent you from scoring 45 plus!

Also, your school has an English cohort of 220! Wow!

I got a 42 in English
I got 17 14 17 on the exam (48/60) A+ cut-off was 47/60
My SAC's scaled to
91 for Unit 3 and 95 for Unit 4

I did bad (my interpretation of bad) on one of my SAC's for which I got 21/30.... However I was able to end up rank 1 overall so it worked out well.....
In the big scheme of things don't get hung up on 1 SAC as you can easily redeem yourself in other SAC's and the exam

Yeah, I didnt do too well in one of mine ( first SAC) but still managed well overall. So one bad SAC amongst relatively good ones is still okay..
