I barely remember my MC, but most of what itute did looks like what i can remember

Apart from the last analysis question, everything else looks pretty good. Hopefully i get a nice examiner and scrape as many marks as i can.

Anyways, less than a month until results!

dropped five in exam 2, none in exam 1. but let's say 6 and 1 to be safe. what does that get me? i'm somewhere around the top in sacs.

Good job finding it! :o
I got one of the MC I guessed wrong xD Also got one of the ones I guessed right ^_^

And I drew the graph wrong for the last part of question 1 (wasn't really sure what I was doing) but I could draw the circle part, and shaded the right side of my line, so that should be 1/2

So know 3 marks I lost, and I can't remember what I put for another of the MC I guessed. So lets say I lost 7-9 over both, what would that get me? :o
pretty happy btw :D

Surely that would be high raw 40s (i've got no idea though)

It's probably floating around 45 raw. I lost 6 marks last year and ended up with 45 raw.

Yeah, I reckon dropping 7 marks would result in a 45. But I've never been right before. ^^

LAST YEAR was an easier exam though i think

im disappointed, llost some awful marks in the easy sections and 3 or 4 on the plane section
6-7 all together

and 4-5 in first one (that was the most disappointing)

what can i expectt? considering it was a bit tough this year, but not that tough

That means you can lose even more marks and get away with a similar study score! So it's only good news for spirited sloth.

Yours looks like it's in the 47+ park.

hakeemthedream: you have the same marks as spirited sloth overall, so your SS will be around 45 too.

Oh! I think 44 is probably the upper bound. I would probably safely bet above 40. A 40 raw is a job well done.

I was very hesitant to check itute for exam 2, because I'm deeply disappointed by my performance (I was sick, yes, that is my excuse) since maths is my best subject and now I might get higher for science. -.-

However, I looked through and it looks like I lost 1 mark over both exams, I typed something wrong into my calculator, but working out is right. I hope I lose less than 5 marks. 45+ for me I hope :D  :D  :D  :D

WOW. Only ONE mark across both Exams. You might still get a 50. You could apply for that derived score, because you were sick, but i do not know how that works.

DISAPPOINTED? are u serious?

No, now I'm glad, I thought maybe I lost more before I checked. And that's one mark according to me and itute, but you never know where else marks are lost, it's hard to expect anything more than 45 in any subject IMO.

If I applied for special consideration what benefits would I get? I'd need a medical certificate right? Because I don't have one..  :roll:

I reckon losing 1 mark is about as far as you can go to get a 50 raw. I used to think that you could lose a few marks in Specialist for a 50 raw as well, but I was wrong.

No idea about people who drop more than 10 marks, sorry. I don't think it'd be near 40, that's all.
