How many marks in physics do you think you could lose for a premiers award?

If I remember correctly, Elaine got 117/120 for her Business Management exam, and wasn't ranked first in SACs, and she still got a Premier's award. Although I'm not sure what school she went to... :S... I'm guessing it's similar for Physics, althought you would need to lose about the same amount of marks overall for the mid-year and end-of-year exams.

  I'm guessing it would be tighter in Physics than BM. You have to be top or joint top, so you'd possibly have to have got every exam mark, depending on how hard the hardest question was.

I'm guessing they give 5 premier's awards in physics. As you only dropped 2 marks all up, I'd say you'd be pretty certain to get one.

 nah. the maths one is highest scaled aggregate of your two favourite subjects from last year, and he "only" got 45 in Methods. And, yeah he aced physics and chem exams 1 but the awards eluded him. Meh, he was happy enough anyway.
